hi all..

im having a trip to Japan for 10 days this month end, arriving in Osaka for the first 5 days and will be at tokyo the last week.

I have to travel from osaka to tokyo via SHINKANSEN but its a bit pricey and im confused about the 7 days JR pass

buying JR pass 7 days - for 2 ppl is around 58k yen (unlimited travel for 7 days in Osaka n Tokyo?)

if travel via SHINKANSEN one way from osaka to tokyo - for 2 ppl is around 27k yen

if travel via peach air one way from osaka to tokyo - for 2 ppl is around 14k yen

can any sifus care to elaborate?

i used hyperdia for train
google map for map
both typically requires data although GMap you can precache the map
I think there's a paid app for hyperdia but not sure if it needs data or does it load the database for offline usage
for bus map, you can download bus map from the bus provider website in PDF

check out the new app Tabimori smartphone app for overseas visitors, not sure if anyone used it before? any feedback?
