Hi! I'm planning to visit Tokyo-Osaka-Kyoto around late October for 7 days. If I want to spend 3 days in Osaka, 1 day in Kyoto and last 3 days in Tokyo should I get the rm1k JR pass? or are there any cheaper alternative way to move between these 3 cities?

QUOTE(Monya Meow Meow @ Jun 1 2019, 05:15 PM) Are you doing a round trip from Tokyo back to Tokyo or flying into Tokyo and leaving from Osaka? Got it. I guess one way is much better then. Flying into Osaka and going back home from Tokyo. Thanks!If it's the former a 7 day JR Pass might pay off, if the latter it doesn't pay off. The cheaper alternative is to just use your IC pass (SUICA/PASMO/ICOCA) within those 3 cities itself and buy a one way shinkansen ticket.

Kyoto - Osaka is maybe RM15-20. No need JR Pass. JR Pass only worth it if you want to return, eg Tokyo - Kyoto - Osaka - Tokyo, wow didn't know Kyoto-Osaka was that cheap haha. No need for the JRpass then. Thanks! |
