I suggest you look at the Takayama-Hokuriku Area Tourist Pass
http://www.japan-guide.com/e/e2361_takayama_hokuriku.html
as well as the Icoca & Haruka is a discount ticket for getting from/to KIX as well as around Kansai.

You should also fit in at least half a day to see Nara - it has some of Japan's top sights. It would be very wise also to check wherever you plan to go between Dec 27 onwards to make sure it is open - many places will be closed for New Year's.

You might want to see Sumiyoshi Taisha in Osaka for New Year's Eve. It will be very crowded but there is nothing else like it.
