Hello,

My family (total of 4 adults and 1 teenager) and I have an upcoming trip to Japan and I was hoping you could assist in determining the best train pass selection for us.

We arrive in Tokyo on May 25, 2026 but do not need the train pass until we leave on June 1, 2026.

June 1, 2026, Tokyo to Nikko

While in Nikko:

June 2, 2026, Day trip - bus to Chuzenji-Ko

June 3, 2026, train from Nikko to Kanazawa.

While in Kanazawa, on June 5th, day trip to Suganuma or Takayama.

June 6th, 2026, train from Kanazawa to Kyoto.

While in Kyoto:

June 9th, 2026, Day trip to Arashiyama

Daytrip to Himeji

June 10th, 2026, train from Kyoto to Hiroshima

While in Hiroshima:

On June 11th, Ferry to Miyajima

June 12th, 2026, return to Tokyo

At some point we want to fit in a tour of the Cop O Noodle factory in Osaka.

Hello,

I'm happy to help! Based on your itinerary, a 14-day JR Pass would be the perfect fit for you. It’ll make your travel across Japan feel seamless and stress-free!

Just a quick heads-up: while the pass is fantastic for the bullet trains and JR lines, some local buses and private subways in Tokyo and Kyoto aren't covered. You'll just need to grab separate tickets or use a travel card for those shorter local trips.

I hope this helps!

Kind Regards,

Mariko
