“Hi, so I am planning to visit Japan for a week (I know not enough but I’ll fit it in ©) Anyway we will be in Thailand for 3 weeks & want to go to Japan. My question is… is it worth to buy JR rail card? As I’ll fit Kyoto & Osaka in this 1 week trip”

There’s a handy calculator over at JapanStation that can help you see if the pass pays off based on your travel plans. Here’s the link: Japan Rail Pass Value Calculator.

Definitely worth a little research to make the best choice!
