Excited to be planning our family holiday but a little confused by rail tickets,
Haneda to Tokyo 20 March
4 nights Tokyo
1 night Hakone
3 nights Hiroshima
3 nights Osaka
4 nights Kyoto
1 night Tokyo before flying home to the UK
Are we better with a JR pass or individual tickets, if individual how easy are they to buy at the station
Hi there,
I checked but could not find a JR Pass that would help you make savings on this route - as such I recommend buying normal rail tickets.
Buying normal tickets is easy, just go to a ticket machine or manned ticket window and tell them when/where you want to travel. Very similar to the UK.
Kind regards,
Daniel
Huge thanks for this are they the same price on the day or cheaper in advance just like in the UK
Prices are usually the same, sometimes small discounts can be had ordering ahead of time online.
That’s great huge thanks for all your assistance
