Hi there,

You could purchase a 7-day JR Pass for use between the 1st and 7th, but it would mean also having to purchase the rest of your tickets individually as well - this can be done once you’ve activated the pass in Japan, or tickets can be purchased online from various websites, including the Navitime site. The JR Pass can be purchased here.

Kind regards,

Alexis
