Re: Should I buy JR Pass from Kyoto to Hakone?

Hi,

We will be travelling to Japan in March 2018 and will be flying in Osaka and fly out Narita.

Our itinerary is as follows:

March 17 - 21 - Osaka
day 1 - we will be getting Osaka Kaiyu ticket, day 2 - Kansai thru pass (for 3 days) to Himeji Castle, day 3 - JR Osaka to USJ, day 4 - Kansai thru pass (for 3 days) to Momofoku Ando Instant Ramen) March 21 - 23 - Kyoto (Kansai thru pass (3rd day) from Osaka to Nara Park to Kyoto and Kyoto day pass to Monkey park)

March 23 - 25 - Hakone (Hakone free pass for 2 days)

Here's my question, can we get 1 day JR Pass from Kyoto to Nagoya (day trip) then to Hakone? then get another 1 day JR Pass from Hakone to Tokyo?

We might get JR Pass to Nikko as well as we will be going there on March 28 - 29.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Beth
