Hello,
Planning buying a 7 days JR Pass. Arriving Narita Airport wednesday April 1, 09.35 and will start my pass by using the Narita Express to Tokyo around 10.30 am.
Then Tokyo Kyoto, Kyoto-Nara, Nara-Kyoto, Kyoto-Osaka.
Wednesday April 8 at 8.16 am I will take the Shinkansen Hikari from Osaka to Tokyo arriving at 11.10 am. I am wondering if the last trip will be included in the 7 day pass? How do you count the 7 days?
Please let me know.
Thank you!

The validity period of the Japan Rail Pass is based on calendar days (midnight to midnight) rather than 24 hour periods. So if you activate it on April 1st, it will expire on April 7th at midnight. If you wish to return to Tokyo from Osaka on the 8th then you will have to activate the pass on the 2nd.
Kind regards,
