Hi there,

The JR Pass is a great choice for this itinerary. Just by visiting Kyoto and Osaka will you make good use of the JR Pass.

There's a couple of things we should look at though, the first being the Alpen Route. I assume that you mean the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine route. You can use the JR Pass to travel most of the way there, however it is too far away from Tokyo to do as a single day trip. Either I would recommend visiting it on June 22nd and 23rd with a stay somewhere near the route itself or stay and enjoy Tokyo.

As for travel to Kawaguchiko, there is no Shinkansen travel directly to Kawaguchiko. The best way to travel there with the JR Pass is to take the train from Tokyo to Otsuki station and from there use the Fujikyu line to Kawaguchiko. The Fujikyu line is not covered by the JR Pass and requires and additional fare of 1,150 yen. For travel to Tokyo, return to Tokyo station from where you can use the Shinkansen directly to Kyoto.

Lastly I would advise activating your JR Pass on June 22nd, as this way you will cover all your important travel with the JR pass.

Hope this helps!
Daniel
