Day 5 Hakone National Park and Mt Fuji
Day 6 Osaka Nara Deer Park and Todaji Temple
Day 7 Universal Studio
Day 8 Osaka Castle -> Singapore
I have a few questions :
1. Should I purchase the Japan Railway pass - 1 week ? Is it cheaper ? I was told told that it is not. Is the Japan Railway pass includes ShiKanshi to Osaka ?
2. Should I join a local tour to Hakone National Park and to Osaka ?
3. Is 1 day sufficient for universal studio ?
I will stay at friend's house in Tokyo, pse advise good place to stay in Osaka and other suggestion.
Thanks & Regards Desmond

Why go all the way to an exotic country with a rich historical tradition and visit Universal Studios?
I would not jion a group tour of the national park. Some people like that, but I prefer to do my own thing. they'll lead you around and request you stay with the group. I think it's nicer to buy a 100 yen guide, read about the place and wander at my leisure.
