Transport a Takamatsu

Definitely use this. It's cheaper than buying on-site, unaffected by external changes, and you don't even need to carry it around. Since you're going to Matsuyama, you'll definitely end up visiting the outskirts.

This pass was really great value for money and I used it well. It's excellent for the price, and I'd love to visit Shikoku again in the second half of the year. Although some people might not know, you can use it on all buses except for a few in very rural areas, and seating is generally open.

Redemption is very convenient! It is recommended to list out the cost of transportation tickets first, and then calculate whether it makes sense to buy a JR pass. If you are prone to getting on the wrong train or getting off at the wrong station like I am, I still recommend buying one! However, don't go out of your way to visit far-away places just to see how much money you can save with your pass—travel time is very precious 😊

On this independent trip to Okayama, Hiroshima, and Takamatsu, Japan, booking the JR PASS directly on Klook was truly convenient! Purchasing the physical exchange voucher or electronic ticket beforehand made picking them up on-site quick and smooth. This PASS offers an extremely high value for money. Not only does it allow unlimited rides on designated JR Shinkansen and limited express trains in the coverage area, but it also provides free access to local branch lines like the Kibi Line (Momotaro Line). Getting in and out of stations is as simple as swiping through the automated ticket gates, which saves time from queuing up to buy tickets each time. Traveling with family this time made our itinerary much more flexible. I highly recommend it to anyone planning a trip to the San'in-San'yo or Shikoku regions. I will definitely continue purchasing through Klook the next time I visit Japan!
