I will be traveling in Japan for about 9 days, and I was wondering if the 7-day JR Pass would be worth it?
I will be travelling around Tokyo for three days, from Tokyo to Izu for a night, Izu to Osaka, and Osaka to Kyoto & Mt. Fuji, and back to Osaka for the remainder of the trip.
Any help is appreciated :)
Hi there,
Just to be sure, will you be going Tokyo - Izu - Oksaka/Kyoto - Fuji - Osaka? If that's the case, then it would make much more sense to visit Fuji when you visit Izu, as it would save you a lot of travel time.
Could you confirm?
Sure, this is what my traveling partner has for our itinerary with prices:
8,000 - Tokyo to Mishima bullet train
520 - Mishima to shunzenji
700- shunzenji to onsen bus stop
5,600 - Fuji to osaka
1200 - Kyoto sta to matsuiyamate (round)
1180- Matsuiyamate to Fukushima (round)
1200- fukushima to Sannomiya (round)
760- fukushima to Namba (round)
314- shibuya to shinjuku (round)
336- shibuya to nichome (round)
400- shibuya to akihabara (round)
Thank you!
Idk if these are in order, I'm sorry!
Hi again,
Are those numbers fares? or something else? That said, a 7-day JR Pass is worth it if you travel on the Shinkansen to Osaka and back to Tokyo. From there, any additional travel and stops only helps you make more savings.
Kind regards,
Daniel
They are fares, but I won't be going back to Tokyo from Osaka, so those were probably out of order, sorry!
