Hello,
I will be travelling to Fukuoka in September and would like to purchase a JR Pass or a Regional pass but am a bit confused with what to purchase. Will be going around in Fukuoka and travel to Nagasaki for 4 days and then come back to Fukuoka for another 3 days. I am thinking of purchasing the 7-day pass but which one should i purchased as I also want to travel to Hiroshima and Miyajima. Should i buy the JR Kyushu rail pass and I will be able to use it on these locations? And can I also use this pass to take trams in Nagasaki and local trains around the Fukuoka area. Please let me know what to purchase.
Thank you.

Hi there,

I recommend look at the Sanyo-San'in Northern Kyushu Pass. If you use it for travel to Nagasaki and Miyajima.

The Pass covers local JR lines as well, and ferry to Miyajima, but not other methods of transport.

Kind regards,
Daniel

Hello,
Can I use the Sanyo-San'in Northern Kyushu Pass to travel all the way to Mt Aso Station from Hakata station? Or do I need to purchase another ticket from Kumamoto to Mt Aso.
Thank you.

Yes, you can do so. That is to Aso station - from there you do need to use additional transport into Aso national park.

Kind regards :)
