Tochigi Prefecture

Very easy and convenient, just show the pass to the staff and hop in and out the train at the Nikko by go through the special entrance from the manual gate, no queue, no obstacles, just walk in and out easily. Very good experience with the pass.

The 72-hour JR Pass with an additional 8% discount is incredibly cost-effective. Since the JR Pass is an electronic voucher, I recommend exchanging it for a physical ticket at the airport; otherwise, you'll have to do it at Tokyo Station. This time, I also learned how to use the Pass directly on the machine to reserve desired train times and seats, which was incredibly convenient. For the 72-hour subway pass, I tried using QR codes for entry and exit this time, and I'm finally not worried about losing or damaging a physical ticket. Overall, this was a great experience.

Smooth transaction and ride. We could have gotten this at a lower rate if we booked early, but due to the need to wait for visa, we only booked 2 weeks before our trip. It was easy to book and request to be dropped off at disney hotel rather than at Disneyland.

A must-visit for traveling to Nikko. If you have enough time, it is recommended to stay in Nikko for 4 days and 3 nights—two nights at Lake Chuzenji and one night at Yumoto Onsen—so you can enjoy the peaceful and deserted lakeside in the morning. Mobile network signals in Nikko are still not very reliable, so it is recommended to print out physical tickets in advance to avoid any anxiety during ticket checks for buses or boats.

Mr Shindou is very kind & helpful. Reccomended and drove us to lots of places within the timeframe despite traffic congestion along the way. He was punctual during pick up & overall was a safe driver. Highly recommend him to anyone who wish to take this service up, it’s worth the extra money for convenience & it’s less hassle.

Easy to book, user-friendly, and offers great value that tourists deserve when traveling around Kanto. We started using it right at Narita Airport for the train into Tokyo, the subway, and Toei buses. Just show the online pass to the station staff; some let you pass right through, while others check to see if it covers their journey. In places without staff, you can press the intercom button to speak with someone. Pairing it with NAVITIME to select routes covered by the Greater Tokyo Pass might mean a few detours and transfers, but overall, it makes traveling very smooth. The places we visited using this pass include Nikko, Kawagoe, Kasukabe, Kamakura, Chofu, the Fujiko F. Fujio Museum, Kotokuji Temple, and Kichijoji.

Our driver mr 神藤志良 is such a nice and understanding driver, we enjoyed chatting with him along the way, and he is very attentive to our needs. highly recommended if you have young kids travelling with you as it was a very enjoyable and pleasant experience. he recommended us nice spots and also a nice place for lunch as it was our first time in Japan. thank you so much!

I highly recommend using Klook to purchase tickets for Toshogu Shrine, as the lines at the on-site ticket counters are truly massive. However, please note that you must exchange your QR code for physical tickets at the visitor center located at Tobu-Nikko Station. You can easily spend a full day visiting Toshogu Shrine and the adjacent Futarasan Shrine, and taking a leisurely stroll there is very pleasant.

I rated 5* for this trip, despite cloudy sky so we could not see the lake and waterfall, but the itinerary was well managed. Vera-san our Tour Leader was very helpful and gave more than enough time to see each spot. The driver also expertise knowing the hairpin route in Nikko was not easy at all. Overall I would recommend joining this tour starting from Tokyo, rather than to do it on our own.
