Is it worth it?

If you are unsure, email us at info@uniquejapantours.com ­or feel free to call us. We can help you weigh up your options. The cost of a 7 day rail pass is almost equivalent to a return journey ticket from Tokyo to Kyoto on the Shinkansen (Bullet Train). Therefore, if you plan on leaving Tokyo for Kyoto with a period of 7 days, we recommend purchasing the 7 day pass. The 14 day pass is suitable for longer trips out of Tokyo, i.e. more than 7 days. Generally speaking, you do not require the JR Pass if you plan on staying inside Metropolitan Tokyo.

Who is  eligible?

The Japan Rail Pass is a special ticket that is available only to travelers visiting Japan from foreign countries for sight-seeing purposes. To be eligible to purchase a JAPAN RAIL PASS you must meet one of the following two conditions:

  1. You are a foreign tourist visiting Japan from abroad for sightseeing, under the entry status of "Temporary Visitor". ­

Temporary Visitor entry status, according to Japanese Immigration Law, allows a stay in Japan of 15 days or 90 days for "sight-seeing, etc.". If you apply for a "stay for sight-seeing" when you enter Japan, entry personnel will stamp your passport as "Temporary Visitor". Only persons who have a passport bearing this stamp can use a JAPAN RAIL PASS. 

Caution: If you enter Japan under any other official status, such as "Trainee", "Entertainer" or "Reentry Permit", you cannot change the Exchange Order for a JAPAN RAIL PASS. Please note that according to strict interpretation of the Japanese Immigration Law, "Temporary Visitor" status differs even from other types of stays that are also for only short time periods.

     2. You are a Japanese national living in a foreign country:

a) who is qualified to live permanently in that country, or
b) who is married to a non-Japanese residing in a country other than Japan

Note: Persons meeting conditions a or b above must be required to show proof of same at the point of purchase of an Exchange Order and obtaining a JAPAN RAIL PASS. 

Payment & Booking

Most major credit cards, cheque, bank transfer, bank draft or cash. We cannot issue tickets before payment is received. If you prefer to pay by cash, cheque or bank draft email us with your names (as seen on your passports) and it will be ready for you to pick up in our Dublin or London office.
