 |
|
| Has anyone ever used this or rather, does it still exist? After my contract is up, my boyfriend will be flying out to Korea to do a two week tour with me. So far, my plan is to go to Seoul->Busan->Fukuoka->Osaka->Tokyo. I saw bits and pieces on the web about a 7 day Korea-Japan Through-ticket but I'm unclear on what it offers. Does it allow me to use any korea rail, ferry and japan rail (as long as it's within my 7 day limit)? I wonder if it's just easier/cheaper to get a regular 7-day JR Rail Pass and just pay the prices for a one way ticket on the KTX to Busan and one way ticket on the ferry to Fukuoka. |

i'm not sure how that through ticket works. do you pay for each separate fare for the trains and ferries? are the lsited prices the discounted prices? all i know is that the JR pass costs 236,000.

if you buy 2 separate non-reserved tickets for FUKUOKA->OSAKA and OSAKA->TOKYO, it's cheaper at around 150,000 total.
