I’m very confused about the pass!!
I am looking to buy a 14 day pass, but want to travel from hiroshima- Tokyo using the Shinkansen. Is this allowed?
Is it worth buying a pass? My itinerary is:
Airport
Tokyo
Kyoto
Osaka
Nara
Kobe
Hiroshima
(Hiroshima ferry)
Tokyo (bullet)
Airport
Thanks in advance!

Hi there,
Yes, the route Hiroshima to Tokyo is fully covered, you will likely have one transfer at Shin-Osaka station.
With your itinerary in mind, I certainly recommend using a JR Pass. You can access all the cities you wish to travel to and the Japan Rail Pass would be your one ticket to all of Japan.
Hope you find this useful,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
Thanks for your reply.
If I buy the pass from you, will there be a Japan rail pass office at the airport Narita so I can use it straight away from Narita to Tokyo?
Thanks!
