Reviews
A good way to travel in the summer if you are not renting a car. cover areas like Shiraito Falls, Kita Karuizawa to Kusatsu. Took the bus from Kusatsu to Karuizawa station. Seamless travel. just a little confusing when getting on the bus as there was no QR shown on the Klook App but the driver read the ‘so called ticket’ and we could get on the bus. Perhaps better instruction or an amendment on Klook App regarding the QR code as there was none.
the bus service is fine but the instructions are confusing as I was expecting a voucher.
