Dears,
I would like to know your honest opinion. I will be 5/11/24 - 19/11/24 in Japan.
4 days in Tokio.
5days in Kyioto - by train. Later Nari and Osaka and maybe something else nearby.
Than I have to come back to Tokio. Is it worth to buy PASS or not?
I guess, in Tokio I need to buy additional metro tickets. What kind of metro ticket do you reccomend to buy for Tokio ( also using Yellowline train.... sth )
Please, can you give me advice? THANKS

Hi there,

For your itinerary I wouldn’t recommend purchasing a JR Pass, given the way your itinerary is spaced out, but I would suggest looking into a prepaid travel card such as a SUICA card that will enable you to travel on the public transport networks of all the cities you’ll be visiting.

Kind regards,

Alexis
