Hi,
first of all I want to thank you for this great service, I hope you can help me as well!
First trip ever in Japan, me and my boyfriend will stay 2 weeks from March 25th to April 8th.
We will arrive in Kansai Airport on 25th, then we will move to our hotel in Kyoto (Eco and Tec, in Higashiyama-ku) . We will stay in Kyoto for one week. We will surely do a daytrip to Osaka, and one to Nara as well.
On April 1st we will move to Tokyo, our hotel will be in Shinjuku (Citadines Shinjuku). We will spend the remaining week in Tokyo, exploring as much as we can, and leave for home on April 8th.
Knowing this rough route, can you help me understanding if a JR pass would be convenient for me and my boyfriend? Or should we stick to normal tickets? I was also thinking to do the SUICA card once in Tokyo, is it a convenient choice?
I also ask your help in suggesting the best way to get from Kansai Airport to our hotel in Kyoto, and then from this hotel to the one in Shinjuku!
Thank you very much!
