Hi Sifus,

Me and my wife is planning for a Japan trip this mid Dec, already bought plane tickets for KL-Tokyo, Osaka-KL.

The itinerary above is solely based on online readings, not experience. Hence, we have some questions to the veterans here:
1) Do we still need JR pass? Since Shinkansen Nozomi is not part of it.
2) Having said that, what is the best & optimum way for us to travel within Tokyo -> Mt Fuji -> Osaka -> Kyoto?

Thank you in advance for your time!

If I were you I will skip Nara and choose Kobe instead. Mt rokko is a must

Any reason why you need to head back to Tokyo from Kawaguchiko instead of heading south to Mishima station and taking your shinkansen from there to Osaka?
From Osaka to Kyoto you have a few options from the most expensive shinkansen to the cheapest local train. If you search on Google Maps you can see your options including the cost.

Also, your day 7 itinerary seems quite impossible to do unless you're not planning to enjoy the scenery and location and just want to take 2 photos and cabuts.  laugh.gif
Instead of heading back to Osaka at 3pm, why not allocate that whole day for Kyoto? Then your itinerary will be more doable.

Yeah I also feel the Day 7 itinerary is absolutely ridiculous for the Bamboo forest - Fushimi Inari - Nishiki part. Also because the 3 places are nowhere near each other.

Thank you for the feedback! True, all those mcm simply put for the places that we think we want to go xD We don't have a feel on the timing at all. Definitely will tweak all these.

Thanks again!

Which will be the better rate, exchange RM to Yen in Malaysia or USD to Yen in Japan ?
