Yudanka to kyoto

Hi there,

This is a bit of a difficult one. A 7 day JR Pass could be useful depending on what you do on the 30-31st. However if you don't do a lot of travel on these days, then a 7 day JR Pass would not be economic. Traveling from Yudanaka directly to Kyoto would be to much I feel, it's a whopping 6-7 hours of non stop train travel. Here is an example route. Although a JR Pass would be useful if you did make the visit. An alternative could be to visit Hakone this is a very beautiful area at the feet of mount Fuji and there are some very beautiful onsen in the area.

Hiroshima/Miyajima is also a very nice alternative but it would also involve a good amount of travel if you are coming directly from Tokyo. Here is a reference route.

Hope this helps!

Hi, thanks for your reply. Is it possible to stay overnight somewhere interesting between yudanaka and kyoto to break up the journey? Thanks

Hi there,

I guess you could stay in Hakone for the night. which is a very beautiful area and you can ride the Shinkansen from there to Kyoto (takes about 2 hours). An other alternative could be Tokyo or Nagoya.
