Japan In-10-Days

The ‘golden route’ 10 days using a JR Pass

If you’re a first timer in Japan, there are certain places you need to go and things you should see - including Tōkyō, Kyōto, Nara & Hiroshima.

If you’re flying into and out of Tōkyō, the trick here is to spend a few days in Tōkyō before activating your 7-day JR Pass - and get back to Tōkyō or even to the airport on the 7th day.

Day 1: Arrive in Japan at Narita or Haneda Airports and find your way into Tōkyō. If you’ve got time, do some exploring.

Days 2 & 3: Check out Japan’s pulsating capital (while saving your JR Pass). Get your bearings with our Tōkyō In-A-Day itinerary.

Day 4: Activate and start using your 7-day JR Pass by taking a morning shinkansen to Kyōto and explore the city in the afternoon.
