My itinerary is
1. Tokyo to Nagoya
2. Nagoya to Suzuka Circuit
3. back to Nagoya
4. Nagoya to Kyoto
5. Kyoto to Hiroshima
6. Back to Kyoto
7. Kyoto to osaka

shall I buy JR pass or individual tickets? which is more cost effective and do I have to buy from my home country (India) in advance or buy after arriving in Japan.
and what pass shall I buy to travel in local

Hi there,

If you are looking for a cost-effective option, you could combine the Kansai-Hiroshima Area Pass for travel within the Kansai and Hiroshima regions with individual tickets for your journeys outside those areas.

We recommend placing your order on our website at least one month in advance, or even earlier if possible, to ensure you receive your voucher with plenty of time before your departure.

I hope this helps!

Kind Regards,

Mariko
