It was such a wonderful experience for us to be able to utilise all sorts of different trains in Japan with this very reasonably priced pass. I enjoyed the planning to go all over Japan for sightseeing. Thank you such, JR. Meanwhile it's such a shame really that we discovered Japanese people in their own country are not entitled for any similar tickets to travel.

Very difficult to use, even when assist in the Jp pass office, very over priced

Amazing experience and fast procedure when picking up my JR Pass

When we arrived at Narita Airport , went to JR office and the young lady there was so helpful that it was unbeliavable . She was very pleasant and she reserved our seats for Shinkansen for the our entire trio. Very well organised organization.
Arigato gozaimas !

I have use the JR Pass several times while visiting Japan. This pass offers you the ability to travel throughout the country with easy. I have used the ferry in Hiroshima using the JR Pass. Depending on the local train system I have found that in many cities I can use the subway and other transportation. This Pass is a great deal for anyone visiting Japan and wants to travel the country.

Worked perfectly, and saved us lots of money on shinkansen tickets over our two weeks in Japan!

Put the full and final price for the pass upfront as in the law in the UK

Also, stop sending this shit

Everything went as planned. We are happy with our experience but wish that the JRPass price hadn't risen so much.

I don't believe that our pass was better than the individual passes we could have purchased. It seems we could have saved at least $***by purchasing individual passes for our travels. Our friends purcahsed a pass and were unable to use at all, and another friend purchased and had to buy an additional day ticket.

So I always purchase the 14 days, green class JR Pass. It’s pricey, but it is well worth it for two weeks. Out of the three times I have been there, I have always bought the pass.. it recommended it to anyome who goes there.

I minus one star because this past trip was different. I activated it immediately on a Saturday, Tokyo time, the minute my flight arrived at Haneda. I hop in a taxi and went straight to Tokyo Eki after i left the airport. Well, sadly, two weeks later on a Saturday, my JR Pass expired on thst saturday, cutting me one day short of 14 days. So it’s like I paid for 14 days on Green Class, but the system cut me off by a day. To be frank and honest, if uou don’t need the JR Pass, just go om Klook and purchase tickets online. The JR Pass is a cash-grab, for them, and if they can’t honor the “whole 14 days,” there is no point as this could be considered as false advertisement. If they can’t homor a whole 14 days, drop the price down for the 13 days.
