It is a bit rushed, particularly Tokyo - you won't have time to see very much with only a few days! I'd only go to one "Fuji spot" - either Hakone or Fuji Five Lakes.

That is really rushed! You won't see much and you will stress out for nothing. Mt. Fuji/Hakone is a one day thing only, don't use another day to do the lakes. Its a choice you need to make the Mountain or the water.

I'd somewhat agree with the above responses. Too rushed.
I think Fuji 5 Lakes is better for viewing Mt Fuji, but Hakone is much better accessed from both Tokyo and Kyoto. For the later reason, I'd pick Hakone due to you being time poor.
O also would transfer hotels from Kyoto to Osaka. That is just wasting 2-3 hours of one day doing the transfer. Just pick a hotel in either Kyoto or Osaka and stick to it.
Also you Kyoto itinerary is rushed. West and north normally go together well. If you wanna to Nara properly, it is a 3/4 day thing with not much other than Gion or Dotonbori for evening/night to close out the day.

I also wouldn't transfer hotels. Sorry, first response was a typo.

Thanks for the advised from all of you.
Revised itineary Day 1: Tokyo (Touchdown) Day 2: Tokyo Day 3: Tokyo to Hakone Day 4: Hakone to Kyoto Day 5: Kyoto Day 6: Kyoto Day 7: Kyoto to Nara (Day-trip) Day 8: Kyoto Day 9: Kyoto Day 10: Kyoto to Osaka Day 11: Osaka (Back Home)
Is this better? I might be travelling to end of feb or in march. If I were to travel in this arrangement, is it best to get the 7 days pass (from day1 - 7)?

Your itinerary looks much better now!
A 7-day JR Pass will NOT pay off. You'd need more long-distance travel to make it cost-effective.

Much better. But 1 full day in Tokyo? Unless you arrive early morning on day one?

Hi Hakata14,

Have not search where are the places I would like to go yet.
