Can we use a JR Pass in Sapporo? 2013/3/2 15:57
We are planning to visit Sapporo for the Snow Festival in 2014. Can we use a JR Pass to get around Sapporo, or are we best to activate it after we return to Tokyo for our trip to and around Kansai?

Can we use a JR Pass to get around Sapporo

The Japan Rail Pass is not valid on the subways, which are most convenient to get around the city. But it is valid on the JR train, that connects Sapporo with Shin-Sapporo, the airport and Otaru. It is also valid on the local buses that are operated by JR Hokkaido Bus, but they are somewhat complicated to understand.

or are we best to activate it after we return to Tokyo for our trip to and around Kansai?

Just make sure that the major train trips are covered. Urban transportation is just a small bonus.
