Hi
We (2 seniors) will be in Japan for about 14 days 9 to 22 June.
We are travelling from Narita to Tokyo to Hakodate then spending rest of time on Hokkaido
I am thinking 7 day JR pass(green) and 7 day Hokkaido pass.
In Hokkaido we will be travelling Hakodate, Kushiro, Nemuro, otaru and Sapporo
Thank you for your assistance.
Kindest regards
Cheryl

Hi Cheryl,

Hokkaido is a wonderful place to visit & the JR Pass will give you fantastic value getting there.

Depending on whether you plan to use the passes consecutively or not, it may be more cost-efficient to just use a 14-day JR Pass (¥47,250), instead of a 7-day JR Pass (¥29,650) + 7-day Hokkaido Rail Pass (¥25,000) = (¥54,650).

The JR Pass covers all of Hokkaido!

Kind regards,
Daniel

Thank you Daniel. Is it worth buying the green class card for Ueno to Hakodate then travel only in Hokkaido?

Hi Cheryl,

Personally, I think the Hayabusa train is one of the best Green Class cars in Japan. Most Ltd. Express trains in Hokkaido have Green cars so, so it may be worth it!
