Thank you very much for your help

Hello,

Given your itinerary, I would recommend activating your 14-day JR Pass on Day 2.

For timetables, you can use Navitime. You can reserve seats once you arrive in Japan at any JR station ticket office (Midori-no-madoguchi) or via the ticket machines. As Golden Week is an exceptionally busy period, I strongly recommend booking your seats as soon as you activate your pass.

I hope this helps!

Kind Regards,

Mariko
