Hi JRpass team,
I hope you are well :).
I am going to Japan on 31/08/2024, and will be travelling for 11 days. Here is my itinerary:
Is it worthy to buy the JRpass? If so, for how many days?
Thank you very much
Mirella
Hi there,
I believe that purchasing your tickets individually would be slightly cheaper than purchasing a 7 day JR Pass, however your itinerary is covered entirely by the pass including the ferry trip to Miyajima, so in my opinion it is worth considering. My recommendation would be to activate the pass near to the time you leave Tokyo so that you can use the JR Pass for all of your major train routes (in Tokyo it won’t be of much use).
Hope this helps!
