easy to use. the vouchers was delivered to my house before my trip. when I arrive in Japan, just activate it at JR ticket office. you can also book and reserve your tickets at the office. we started from Nagoya- Takayama- Toyama - Matsumoto and back to Nagoya. If you enjoy scenic train journey, this is definitely a good choice!
If you're planning a trip from Nagoya to Takayama, Toyama, and the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route within five days, I highly recommend purchasing this pass! A round trip on the Hida Limited Express from Nagoya to Takayama alone costs around NT$2400, and the Tateyama Kurobe Option Ticket is about the same. With this pass, I was able to take the comfortable Hida Limited Express from Nagoya to Takayama, stay there for three nights, then travel to Toyama for one night. I also used the pass for a free ride on the train to Tateyama Station, where I exchanged the pass for a round-trip ticket to the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, also free of charge. Finally, I took a complimentary JR train from Shinano-Omachi back to Nagoya. It's convenient and highly recommended! Seat Reservation Process: The pass includes four free seat reservations, which you can make by selecting your preferred times at the automatic ticket machines in the station.
this is absolutely a great pass if you planned your itenerary wisely. unfortunately I had one minor.mistake. I did not.kmow that you could not exchange the JR Pass at Toyama Station. you can onlyndo.it in Takayama.Station, Nagoya Station and probably at Shinano Station (not sure about that. the best starting pint to exchange the JR Pass is probably at Nagoya Station. But any the Tateyama Kube Alpine Route pass (which is included in this pass) needs to be acquired from.either De test Toyama Station or.from Shinano Station. I got mine at Dentetsu Toyama Station.
We think it’s a bargain! We went up to Tateyama Kurobe three times in a row, the first day Toyama ~ Toyama down (stay Toyama hotel) take the earliest Toyama Station train 05:50. The cable car at Tateyama Station is [of the same day]. By the next day, if you are on Toyama again, and go to Tateyama Station Customer Service Center to book (the day) cable car time ticket, of course, already holding your pass and the ticket from Tateyama to Ogizawa the day before, to do the next part. My husband was very happy, we witnessed the cloudy day-rainy day-sunny day in Tateyama Kurobe - we stayed one night (two days and one night) in Murodo, watching the evening galaxies, watching the sunrise, sunset. Saw a pair of thunderbirds. PS: The snow wall in the room hall does not open until 9:30 every day. But the display stand in the direction of the Tateyama Hotel exit - was open before 9:30. Because we were in a flash.We could not use its Shinkansen ticket, we arrived at Nagoya Airport, after going to Nagoya Station to redeem the pass, we self-paid night bus directly from Nagoya to Toyama. Take the Shinkansen directly from Matsumoto to Tokyo at your own expense. The pass is very rich, and you can go from Nagoya to Takayama, then to Toyama, then down to Matsumoto and back to Nagoya. However high mountains. We’ve been there before, so we used our pass this time to wander directly to Tateyama Kurobe and have fun (haha).
This trip, we intended to use the pass to visit the Kurobe Alpine Snow Wall, which is very convenient to use. Just show the pass to exchange for an Alpine Route ticket at Ogizawa Station. And to take the bus from Shinano Omachi to Ogizawa, just show the pass. As for exchanging for JR train tickets, it is convenient like other passes.
It is an amazing experience. Klook posted the actual JR exchange voucher to me and I exchanged it in JR office in Shin Osaka station. For the Alpine route, I have to redeem the Alpine route pass at Toyama station. All type of transportation on Alpine route are covered. beautiful ❤️ the only drawback is no reservations online on the tateyama cable car so we had to get the station early to get the reservation
Always hassle-free with any JR exchange voucher ordered through Klook. It was delivered in the expected timeframe. Having the pass made my travel easy and if planned strategically, can save you even more money than I did.
This is a great buy. We used this ticket and follow the whole route Nagoya-Matsumoto-Tateyama alpine route-Toyama-Takayama-Nagoya. We even took a short trip to Hida Furukawa when we were in Takayama. We didn't bother booking any reserved seats because we want to be flexible with our time. The ticket allows us to take any train along the route at anytime as long as we board at non-reserved coaches. However, it is good to check on google on the duration of train rides. We manage to take all limited express trains to save time during the trip. Some trains were new and some were old. The old school local train to Shinano Omachi was a fun ride. Most of the train rides were very scenic since it was autumn. During the visit to tateyama alpine, we forwarded our luggage at Shinano Omachi for 3000yen/bag and picked up right before we exit the Dentetsu station. It was quite an easy and smooth journey. We also manage to collect stamps at every station.
Quick delivery of exchange order to my address in Singapore. Brought it to Japan and then redeemed JR pass at airport. Reserved my seats at JR Nagoya station. A very nice pass to bring me around central area in Japan. Highly recommended!
Transportation in Japan is very expensive. If you want to visit Tateyama Kurobe, I highly recommend purchasing this pass. After getting the redemption voucher in Taiwan, I brought it to Japan to exchange it for tickets. I redeemed the voucher and reserved a designated seat at Nagoya JR Tokai TOURS (it can be booked 4 times, but we only booked 3 times. You can make the reservation in advance Write down the time and place), and it is best to reserve 30 to 40 minutes in advance for waiting in line. We took the bus from Ogizawa. You don’t need to exchange your ticket when taking the bus from Shinano Omachi to Ogizawa. You just need to show it to the driver. When you get to Ogizawa, go to the counter and exchange it for a Tateyama Kurobe ticket. Use that ticket to travel across time
