Hi,
We are family of 3 adults traveling to Japan from 20th March to 1 April 2026. Our rout will be Tokyo (20 to 24) , Hakone (24 to 26) , Kyoto (26 to 28) and Osaka (28 to 1 April).
So, if buying JR pass worth it for my group? or to buy regional passes and tickets to connect between cities?
Regards
Dr. Saleh
Hi Dr. Saleh,
I'm happy to help! The most cost-effective strategy for your route is to combine regional passes with individual tickets. To simplify your travel, I recommend looking into these two options:
1) Kansai Area Pass
2) Hakone Freepass
I hope this helps!
Kind Regards,
Mariko
