Hello!
I would like some advice on buying the 14 day pass or not.
I will be staying in Tokyo for 7 days, then I will head to Kyoto for 6 days, and after that I head back to Tokyo for day and back to Narita Aiport.
Think the 14 day pass is a smart idea?

Travelling around Tokyo is relatively inexpensive, so you would probably not get value for money out of a JR Pass during that first week - you get the most value for money out of your JR Pass when you make several long-distance journeys around Japan by Shinkansen. The Pass would allow you to ride JR trains in Tokyo, but it doesn't cover the subway system at all.
However, since a 7-day JR Pass costs the equivalent of one round trip from Tokyo to Kyoto, buying one of these for the second half of your trip would definitely be worth it - then any other trips you took on JR lines, while in Kyoto for example, and later the train back to Narita Airport would essentially be free!
I hope this helps.
Kind Regards,
Japan Experience
