Hi Guys,
I'm going to Japan in mid Oct with my husband and need suggestion which rail pass is best. We want to try the shinkansen of course but I don't think 7days JR pass id beneficial for us.
Here's our itinerary: Day 1: Depart at night from Jakarta Day 2: Arrive in Osaka KIX Airport - explore Osaka and go to Kyoto hotel Day 3: USJ - to Osaka again for dinner Day 4: Arashiyama - Fushimi Inari - Kobe Day 5: Ginkakuji, Kiyomizudera, Gion - explore Kyoto Day 6: Kyoto to Shinjuku - Harajuku - Shibuya - Shinjuku Day 7: Ueno - Asakusa - Akihabara - Shinjuku Day 8: Tsukiji - Disneyland Day 9: Disneysea Day 10: Tokyo to Hakone Day 11: Hakone to Shinagawa - Ginza - Odaiba Day 12: Go home from Haneda Airport
Please advise which travel pass is best for our trip? Current plan is: 3 days JR Kansai pass, 1 day Osaka eco card pass, Hakone 2 days pass, 3 days Disney resort line pass & IC Card.
Thank you.

No pass is ideal for your trip. You would have to purchase single one way tickets.
Your day of kyoto shinjuku and shibuya is pretty packed. You might not be able to do all your shopping. Shinjuku itself takes about 5 days to shop. If just for sightseeing than you might be able to do just shinjuku alone.
You can get the hakone free pass that allows you to get from shinjuku to hakone and back. It also allows you to get on a ferry and take a cable car. If you only want to go to hakone and are not interested in the cable car and ferry rides, you would have to purchase normal individual tickets.

Thanks Joshua,
I guess so, I have done lots of research and I guess the best way is to purchase 1 day pass for the city.
For Day 6: Kyoto to Shinjuku - Harajuku - Shibuya - Shinjuku Shinjuku is basically where we stay so the whole day will be to explore Harajuku & Shibuya. And travel from Kyoto in the morning. Thanks for your comment!
