Tokyo travel and 7 day pass

Hi there,

Yes, I can tell you right away that you will be making very good use of the JR-Pass with your planned itinerary.
I posted a little list of ticket prices below so you can see for yourself :)

I would recommend the following route in case you want to minimize travel on a single day.

Tokyo --> Odawara (from here you can access Hakone) ¥ 3,130
Odawara --> Osaka ¥ 12,470
Osaka --> Hiroshima ¥ 10,150
Hiroshima --> Kyoto ¥ 10,990
Kyoto --> Tokyo ¥ 13,420

For a total of ¥ 50,160, the 7 Day JR-Pass is 28,300 resulting in ¥ 21,860 savings. Not bad, even if I say so myself.

I would recommend a visit to Nikko if you do have the JR-Pass available in Tokyo and want to make a day trip.

You may find the [Narita Express + Suica package] useful to travel to Tokyo since you won't be using the JR-Pass to travel to Narita Airport to Tokyo. It gives a nice discount on the Narita Express and you can use the Suica card to travel around in Tokyo, it also makes for a good souvenir.

Make the most of your trip!
