Apologies if you have answered this question before. My first intended use of pass would be:
morning of 30 June (Tokyo to Kyoto)
2nd use: 03 July (Kyoto to Nara)
3rd use: 04 July (Nara to Osaka)
4th use 06 July (Nara to Hiroshima)
5th use 07 July (Hiroshima to Osaka)
6th use (morning of) 08 July ( Osaka to Tokyo (Haneda))

This is 8 days, is it cheaper that I pay a separate fare from Tokyo to Kyoto instead of the first use to accommodate the 7 day pass limitations or would it be cheaper to buy a 14 day pass or should I cancel the single overnight return stay in Osaka and go directly back to Tokyo from Hiroshima .
Another different question is how to find information on which is the best or appropriate exit out of particular large city train terminals (as I believe so have multiple exits).
Thank you so much

Hi there,

The difference is pretty close, a one way ticket Kyoto to Tokyo is around 14.000yen, while the price difference is roughly 16500 . So if it is only a one way ticket, then that is the better option. If you did do a little more travel with the 14 day JR Pass, then that would be the way to go.

As for stations, there are a couple good website and apps that have station guide. Usually, a Google Search such as Tokyo Station Guide will find you plenty of good options. You can also find station maps on the pages of each JR operator.

Hope this helps,
Daniel
