Should i go for 14days JR pass 2014/4/17 17:54
If i go for 7days jr pass i still have 4 days to go. I plan go kumano ,koyasan,yoshino then to nara and kyoto after return to osaka. Should i go for 14days jr pass? Worth it?

no, neither! Look at Kansai only passes, Koyasan pass, etc.

The above poster is correct. DO NOT buy the JR Pass, because I would be a waste with your itinerary!

You may be too late for the Sakura in Yoshino.
When I left Kyoto on April 11, the Sakura was pretty much over with blossoms completely gone from some trees.

You've been advised already, but to reiterate.....
As you are only staying in Kansai, you would be a fool to spend nearly 30000 yen on a rail pass when your travel costs won't even reach a third of that. Use hyperdia.com and add it all up for yourself.

If you want to waste your money, then go for it. But we've told you that your itinerary does not warrant use for the JR Pass....

W pass was discontinued.

I think other people also seem to be saying, if you travel to the Kansai area only, and should not buy a Japan Rail Pass. If you had to buy, it would be Kansai Wide Area Pass. However, you have to pay separately, in order to go to Yoshino and Koyasan.
