Hi, My Parents and I Will visiting Japan April next year. We plan to purchase 7day JRPass and exchange it @narita airport terminal 2 but will not using it until our trip from kawaguchiko Station to Mishima station. I have some questions regarding that:

We are traveling to the following cities -
Day 1,2,3 will be in Tokyo after that We will take bus from Shinjuku to kawaguchiko Station (mt Fuji) spend a night in there, then using bus from kawaguchiko station to Mishima station in order to use shinkansen to Kyoto. Can we activate JR pass @Mishima Station?
After that spend 3 nights in Kyoto, then go to nara (for half day) after that spend 2 night in Osaka.. using JR Pass from Osaka go back to Tokyo again.. day 7 (the last day of JRpass activation) we’ll using that for a day trip to Hitachi Seaside Park from Tokyo..
can we use JR pass like this? Is it worth it? Thanks before :)

Hi there,

Yes, the JR Pass can be activated at Mishima Station. It terms of being worth it, I think you will make savings using the JR Pass but not massively so. Starting at Mishima, in a way means you would get less value out of the pass, compared to most who start it in Tokyo. However, your trips to Osaka, Nara and Hitachi will make up for that :)

The JR Pass can be used to all these places and will be very convenient here.

Hope this helps,
Daniel
