Transport in Hiroshima Prefecture

A rail pass allows you to travel throughout the regions of Japan. You can reserve your seat in advance before your travel date, allowing you to travel according to your plan. It's easy to redeem, delivered to your home, and you can exchange the exchange order at the airport immediately. It's convenient, fast, and problem-free.

It's super easy to use today; just use the card and you can redeem it at the automatic machine. Just show the QR code and scan your passport, then select the start date. It's very convenient now and worth it. Just traveling to Hiroshima alone makes it worth it, especially riding the Shinkansen.

Hiroshima's transportation network is excellent! The pass pays for itself in just a few trips! You're also entitled to discounts on places like Hiroshima Castle!! I highly recommend it.

My daughter enjoyed the Hello Kitty train, process to get tickets were easy, no clear how to redeem them at station but JR staff is very friendly and willing to help, definitely I recommend Klook for all bookings required in Japan

Sanyo Sanin pass was very great and easy to use when traveling in Kanto region. we have used it on our travels all the way from Hiroshima, Himeji and Kobe. Highly recommended it for people who wanted to explore outside of Kyoto and Osaka. Shinkansen was very punctual (unless there are unfortunate events and bad weather conditions). It offered unlimited travel on JR trains, including the shinkansen (except Nozomi/Mizuho), which made moving between cities like Hiroshima, Okayama, and Fukuoka incredibly easy and affordable. I saved a lot compared to buying individual tickets, and the convenience of just hopping on and off trains with a pass was unbeatable.

At Hakata Station, I got a numbered ticket and exchanged it for my pass with almost no wait. I even asked them to reserve a Shinkansen ticket to Hiroshima departing in an hour. While waiting, I went to Doutor Coffee for toast and coffee. From Hiroshima Station, I headed straight to Miyajima with just my backpack. I didn't need to buy a separate ticket; I could go directly from the Shinkansen to the JR exit. After getting off, I took a ferry (had to pay a 100 yen island entry tax) to the island with the JR ferry, and I could return to Hiroshima using the same route. The next day, I went to Onomichi, but because of the train schedule, I transferred from the Shinkansen to the JR line at Fukuyama and returned the same way. This time, the Shinkansen ride was only 25 minutes, so I didn't reserve a specific seat and just took a non-reserved seat. I didn't even reserve the non-reserved seat, just entered with my pass and sat in the non-reserved section or in an empty seat. I got caught once^^ They said it was the Fukushima-Hiroshima section, but when I showed my pass, they just said "Daijobu~" and left. On the last day, the Hiroshima-Hikita section... the Shinkansen was delayed by 2 hours. This time, I reserved a specific seat myself using the machine... Anyway, for a one-hour section, a reserved seat seems safer than a non-reserved seat. I spent two hours sweating and sitting on the platform floor, but I was able to endure it because I had a book with me... Anyway, thanks to the pass, I had a cheap, comfortable, and fun trip!

Highly recommend purchasing this pass for unlimited rides on JR trains and the Shinkansen. I exchanged for mine using a machine in Hiroshima. With this pass, I took trains between Hiroshima, Okayama, Onomichi, Kurashiki, Himeji, Osaka, Kobe, and Takamatsu. I also used the JR ferry to go to Miyajima and Shodoshima. In Okayama, you can ride the streetcar. In the Shikoku area, the ticket vending machines and automatic gates cannot read this pass, so you must go to the counter for manual processing when reserving a reserved seat.

I used the "JR PASS Okayama Hiroshima Yamaguchi" this time. On the first day, I received the PASS at Okayama Station and immediately reserved a seat on the Shinkansen to Hiroshima with extra-large baggage space. I arrived in Hiroshima very quickly. On the second day, I traveled to and from Hakata and got to try the square Ichiran Ramen. On the third day, I took a ferry to Miyajima. On the third and fourth days, I used the PASS to ride the Hiroshima sightseeing bus, enjoying various tourist attractions in Hiroshima. On the fourth day, I took a reserved seat on the Shinkansen back to Okayama. On the fifth day, I went to Kurashiki. This pass saved me a lot of transportation costs, so I highly recommend purchasing it 👍

We used this JR pass to travel to 6 prefectures and we’re able to save a lot! We used this to ride the Huis Ten Bosch and Yufu trains (Yufuin no mori was already sold out) and shinkansen going to Osaka and Hiroshima (from Hakata). Redemption in the JR ticket office was hassle-free. We also reserved seats through the help of the staff. Additionally, we also used the green machines to reserve seats. If you plan your trip strategically, you’d also be able to maximize this pass. Make sure to plan ahead so you’d know which trains to take and which seats to reserve. I’d say this pass was truly a lifesaver and I can’t recommend it enough to those who will be travelling to Kyushu, Chugoku, and Kansai regions.
