I will be traveling to Japan in May 2020, and are basically looking at doing:
- Narita Express to Tokyo
- stay two days in Tokyo
- Tokyo to Kyoto
- stay four days in Kyoto
- Kyoto to Hiroshima
- stay one day in Hiroshima
- Hiroshima to Osaka
- stay four days in Osaka
- Osaka to Tokyo
- stay overnight in Tokyo
- Tokyo to Narita Expres
So now the big question - is it easier to buy individual RESERVED seats or buy a 14-day JR 'Green Class' ?
Please help me !!!
Hi there,
For this route I would definitely recommend a Japan Rail Pass, you can make good savings and the JR Pass will cover travel between all the cities you go to. The Green Class is a nice addition too, as it is a lot more relaxing :)
Do note that Green Seats are all reserved, so reserve your seat before boarding the train. This is free with the pass.
Hope this helps,
Daniel
