Hi,
I'll be visting japan from 7th to 17th April.
Thought about visiting osaka and Kyoto the first 6 days (I will arrive at Tokyo's airport) then staying in Tokyo (maybe a one day trip to Hakone). I was wondering which option is the best : taking 14 days JR pass OR 7 days JR pass + another pass for tokyo ? And what about if I'm going to Hakone ?
Thank you
Hi there,
The 7 day Japan Rail Pass is the better option when you use it to make the return Tokyo <-> Kyoto/Osaka. Local travel within Tokyo/Hakone does not cost much in comparison and using a local pass/tickets there works out better.
Hope this helps,
Daniel
