Is 7-Day JR Pass enough?

Hi there!

The validity of the JR Pass is counted in days (opposite to hours) and the first day is counted as a full day, no matter what time you start using it. Given this I would recommend to start using the JR Pass on your 2nd day in Japan and buy a normal ticket into Tokyo for your arrival. For this a 1,500yen ticket could be very useful.

Hope this helps!

Thank you Daniel-San for your quick reply. Since I can't used it on the 1st day, can I still just activate it and choose 03/27 is the beginning day for use of the pass while I am at Narita airport? If I can't, where is the place in Shibuya that I can activate my pass?

Thanks again.

Hi there!

You can either activate it at Narita Airport upon arrival and select a start day at a later point of time. Or you can activate it at the JR Information center @ Shibuya station between 10:00-18:30.

Hope this helps too!

Thank you very much for your help. I'm sure that many novice travelers like me, we appreciated your expertise.
Have a wonderful day Daniel.
