Best pass for 11 days in Tohoku region

Hi there,

It really depends on where and when you will be travelling, it is hard for me to say without knowing your itinerary details.

As a starting point, you could look at a normal JR Pass, a JR East Tohoku Pass or the JR East-South Hokkaido Pass.

Kind regards,
Daniel

Our itinerary is pretty flexible except for the arrival and departure. We want to visit Tokyo Disney and Matsushima. We will be traveling towards Tome shi to see family and we would like to see Sendai and Shiogama. We don't really have any set dates for those activities. When I looked at how much a day ticket would be it seemed to be much more cost efficient to get the passes even if we only used them to travel from the airport to Sendai and back and round trip to Disney. What do you think?

Hi again!

Will you be doing the day trip from Sendai to Disneyland? In that case, yes, it would be worth it to get 2 JR East passes or maybe even look at getting a 14-day Japan Rail Pass.

Having a pass would be a good excuse to go exploring, there's plenty of cool stuff around Tohoku. The JR East Shinkansen trains are amazing and they have interesting Joyful trains as well!
