Reviews
JR trains in Japan are renowned for their punctuality, comfort, and efficiency. Operated by Japan Railways Group, they include Shinkansen (bullet trains), local, and express services. Clean, safe, and well-connected, JR trains offer Japan Rail Passes for tourists. With sleek designs and exceptional service, they’re a hallmark of Japan’s advanced rail network, ideal for seamless travel across the country.
easy to redeem, just a few extra steps to save money on otherwise expensive JR trips. I'm using mine for noboribetsu and otaru, but this would be even more worthwhile if I managed to squeeze ride to airport in the 4 days.
Very on time and very professional staff. Used it to go Noborisetsu and Otaru, and for my return to CTS airport. Saved lots of time booking Hokuto express, which was very nice. I just wish it were a bit cheaper for more savings.
Very easy to redeem. I exchanged my pass at sapporo station. You get to reserve unlimited reserved seats on trains which is great especially for crowded routes. We travelled to noboribetsu and otaru which is more than enough to break even for this pass. do note that it does not cover local metro trains
This pass is very convenient, you can get reserve seats and have a comfortable travel to Noboribetsu and Otaru. You can go back anytime and anywhere where this pass can, but be sure that you can get the most out of this ticket by planning your routes ahead so you can get your money’s worth!
This pass proved invaluable, justifying its cost. Used from New Chitose Airport to Sapporo. It also facilitated my 2x visits to Otaru, day trip to Noboribetsu, and more, enhancing my travel experience with seamless accessibility. i highly recommend this pass if you are also planning to visit places outside Sapporo.
It is a very convenient pass. We went to Otaru, Chitose, Airport, Royce Town with ease. We saved a lot of money from this. It can be redeemed at the JR Sapporo Tourist Information Center
easy to redeem at Chitose airport. used for chitose airport to saporro and otaru. also applicable for reserved seats. we reserved ours on our trip to otaru.
amazing value for money! The Hokuto tickets alone have a value of roughly 5000yen, so this pays for itself with a single round trip. access to Otaru is also great, though it would be nice if they were able to expand coverage to Yoichi.
A great pass to get if you want to head out for a few day trips from Sapporo. You can also reserve seats with this pass if you don’t want to be standing up with your luggage on the train - just pop into the information centre at the JR Sapporo station and they will help you with this.
