Hello, I will take a 6-day trip to Japan in May. I will arrive at Narita Airport from there I will travel to Tokyo-Kyoto and Osaka and back in the same order (Osaka-Kyoto-Tokyo-Narita Airport), the JR regional Hokuriku Arch Pass pass Would it be my best option or should I get the National pass?
I'm interested in obtaining the fastest trips and avoiding expenses for have to take other transportation lines that are not included in the pass.
This is my first trip to Japan, I hope you can help me with my questions, thank you.
6 days trip
Hi there,
The Hokuriku Pass is the cheapest option for your itinerary, but travelling via this pass between Tokyo and Kyoto/Osaka would take longer in comparison to using the Shinkansen provided by the regular JR Pass, which would be more expensive but would lower your travel time. It therefore depends on what you prioritise.
Hope this helps!
