Hello! We are traveling from Tokyo > Kyoto > Osaka > Tokyo over a period of 7 days. Is it worth it for our group to purchase a JR Pass or should we buy individual train tickets?

Hi there,
For your itinerary it is likely that purchasing your tickets individually or purchasing a Hokuriku Arch Pass will be your most cost-effective option, but note that the Hokuriku Pass will cover a route with increased travel times than usual as it goes via the Hokuriku Shinkansen rather than Tokaido.
Kind regards,
Alexis
