Hi,
I hope you are doing well.
My partner and I are traveling to multiple locations in Japan this Nov. please see below itinerary:
Arrival Airport: Haneda
November 7-19: Tokyo
November 19 - 24: Osaka
November 24 - 28: Kyoto
November 28: Kyoto / Tokyo (Departure: Haneda Airport)
Can you please advise which Jr rail passes should we get for our travel dates?
Thank you
Nat
Hi Nat,
I could not find a pass that would help you make savings on this route. As such, I recommend buying normal tickets for your trip.
Kind regards,
Daniel
Thank you Daniel!
I should have also elaborated, would buying normal tickets for the trip also be recommended with this rough itinerary.
Tokyo:
8 Nov - Disney Sea
10 Nov - Team Lab Planet
12 Nov - Sensoji Temple / Art Aquarium Musuem
14 Nov - Tokyo Disney Land
16 Nov - Street Karting
18 Nov - Shibuya Sky
*also - Mt Fuji
OSAKA:
Universal Studio, Dontobori, Nara Deer Park, Osaka Castle
KYOTO:
Fushimi Inari Shrine, Bamboo forest.
Hi again,
A JR Pass makes sense for longer distances / intercity travel. When I read your itinerary, I see a return Tokyo - Kyoto/Osaka. This is about the same price as a 7-day Japan Rail Pass (at current pricing). You spend more than 7-days together in Kyoto/Osaka combined, so a 7-day JR Pass would not work and you don't cover enough travel for a 14-day JR Pass to help you make savings. As such, my previous advice :)
Kind regards,
Daniel
