My itinerary is one day longer than a 14-day pass. I imagine I will need to buy one transfer ticket at the end of the trip. Those of you who are knowledgable, please let me know if I'm doing anything wrong! I know that the last few Tokyo days do not involve any long-distance travel, but I don't see any way of avoiding a 14-day pass.

Thanks for your suggestions!

Hello there,

The JR pass will work very well for your itinerary. There's plenty of travel in your itinerary, which would cost a lot more without the JR pass.

In terms of route, you are doing good. There's no unnecessary travel and the root looks good. So there's not much for me to correct :)

Hope this helps and have a great time in Japan!
Daniel

Hi,
One question that pops up is why you are doing Matsumoto as a day trip from Kyoto. One way is over 3 hours, so over 6 hours of your day is sitting on the trains. It's not as bad from Tokyo, and would probably be better as a day trip from there.
For your other day trip on June 29th, two good choices would be either to Hakone or Kamakura/Enoshima. It's all up to your interests.

Good luck!

Ah, yes, I can see now that Matsumoto Castle is too far (I must have misread a guide book). Thank you for pointing that out!
