Hello..we are returning to Japan for 16 days next March/April.
I have done the calculator and determined that buying a 14-day JR Pass isn't beneficial.
So are you able to advise which Regional Passes we should get please.
This is our route by train
Osaka
Hiroshima
Nagasaki
Then fly Nagasaki to Tokyo
Then back to trains
Nagano
Kyoto
Osaka

Thank you
Karen

Hi there,

I think in your case the best option would be to purchase the tickets for the first half of your itinerary separately, and then purchase a Hokuriku Arch Pass, as it’ll cover travel between Tokyo, Nagano, Kyoto and Osaka in a 7-day period.

Hope this helps!

Alexis

Hi Alexis,
Does the Sanyo Sanin Northern Kyushu Pass 7 days $270 cover Nagasaki?
Thanks Karen
