Good morning!

We are a group of 30 people who are going to visit Japan between July 8 and July 21.
We have the following itinerary already planned:

July 7 arrival in Narita In'l. Airport - transfer to Tokio
July 8 to July 13 Stay in Tokyo
July 14 visit to Sendai
July 16 stay in Tokyo
July 17 visit to Kanazawa
July 18 visit Kioto
July 19 visit Kioto
July 20 visit Osaka and return to Tokio
July 21 transfer from TOkio to Narita Int´l Airport

I would appreciate it if based on the above itinerary you could tell me what are out best options when it comes to JR pass and others.
Unfortunately I am not familiar with the train system in Japon and I am having difficulty identifying what train line / pass would be more efficient and less expensive.
I thank you in advance for taking the time to respond! Looking forward to learning more about Japan!

Best regards,

Hi Paula Bauducco,

I reviewed your itinerary and would suggest using a 14 day JR Pass. This will give you enough time to travel around and Japan and it would cover travel between all the cities you plan to travel. Tokyo, Sendai, Kanazawa, Kyoto and Osaka all have bullet train lines and you can use the JR Pass to access them.

When you plan to book the pass, drop us a line at [email protected] and we may be able to give a small discount as group booking.

Kind regards,
Daniel
