Hi,
I have sketched out an itinerary for my trip to Japan, and would like some expert advice :)
I plan to arrive in Narita airport on April 21, and immediate take JR to Osaka. Then my plan is as follows
April 23 - Osaka > Hiroshima > Osaka
April 24 - Osaka > Nara > Osaka
April 25 - Osaka > Kyoto
April 27 - Kyoto > Hakone
April 29 - Hakone > Tokyo
If I activate my JR Pass on the evening of the 21st, it is good until the evening of the 27... right?
There are three options I can think of:
1. Purchase the 7 day JR, and pay the individual costs of the train ride after the 27th (Hakone > Tokyo)
2. Purchase the 14 day JR pass
3. Trim my trip dates down to squeeze into a 7 day JR pass
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
