Transport in Kanagawa

such a great pass to get especially if you are DIY-ing your visits to Kamakura, Hakone. For a 3 day mobile pass, that we only utilized for 2 days, this was such a bargain versus doing the guided tours.

I took the airport limousine from Hotel ikebukuro to Narita Airport. The hotel had a clear sign for the airport limousine bus and the hotel staffs were very helpful. The bus arrived on time and the driver proceeded to check our tickets before storing our luggages. The ride took roughly 1 hour (departed at 9.45am) from ikebukuro to Narita airport. I highly recommend using this service to make your life easier on your last day in Japan. I'd rather have a comfortable trip to the airport than to navigate the train stations with my 20-30kg luggages.

Starting from Shinagawa, transportation is convenient, and the package deal is excellent. It includes round-trip train tickets to Miura, public transportation around Miura, a lunch voucher, and an experience ticket. The sightseeing chain is complete, and there aren't many people on weekdays, making it a great place to relax.

This helped me a lot to go to all the places I've been to in Kansai area. Since I am new to how the train system works in Japan, I tend to get lost and with this pass I never have to worry about spending extra for transpo if I end up in the wrong station as this is unlimited.

The bus driver on the Bayside Blue line gives a really entertaining tour. He speaks into the microphone while driving, saying things like, "Your kindness makes everyone smile." At first, I wondered if he was involved in some kind of religious group. When we approached a curve, he'd say, "We're turning left, left, left... oh wait, my mistake, we're turning right!" Or, "I thought we were going to stop at this red light, but it immediately turned green!" The passengers started chuckling, and it created a really pleasant and fun atmosphere.

I think the most valuable parts of the "Hayama Women's Trip Ticket" are actually the meal voucher and the C voucher. I originally thought the items included in this kind of package would be pretty standard, but they turned out to be much better than I expected. The B voucher can be directly exchanged for a set meal, and many of the restaurants have great ambiance. The one I went to, if you sit by the window, is definitely a seaside restaurant. Plus, the brochure lists the participating establishments, so you don't have to stress about what to eat, making the travel experience much more relaxed. I initially thought the C voucher was just a small freebie, but I ended up getting six donuts with it! It was quite fun exchanging things as I explored, like the joy of opening a mystery box while traveling. Overall, I feel this ticket isn't just a transportation pass; it's more like a package that arranges your meals, strolls, and afternoon tea all in one.

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.

👍 Pros (why people like it) 1. Big savings if you do the full itinerary Example: Transport without pass ≈ 12,110 yen Pass price ≈ 8,500 yen → ~30% savings 2. Extremely convenient No need to buy tickets repeatedly Just scan and ride everything Covers many transport types (train, bus, cable car, boat)

This pass is very useful, but the only drawback is that you have to go through a manned gate. Sometimes, other stations don't have staff, or the staff have already left for the day, so you have to use the intercom or just go through without assistance. Otherwise, this pass is extremely convenient for visiting Mount Takao, Enoshima, and Kawagoe. You basically just show the Tokyo Pass screen on your phone. You can depart from Narita Airport Terminal 1, 2, or 3 without any additional payment, and there's no charge when you return to your home country. It's completely free for 5 days from the date of use.
