VERY EASY TO REDEEM! VERY EASY TO USE! AND IT WILL GET YOU FASTER TO YOUR DESTINATION! SAVES TIME THAN TAKING PLANE! didn't reserve a seat yet until the day my ticket is valid. went to station when I'm all ready. i looked for the nearest depart time when I'm already at the station and reserves my seat. you can even just go and catch the train and just seat on non served one.
Very convenient. After exchanging the voucher for a ticket, you can reserve a seat and then use the ticket to enter the station and board the train. Riding the Shinkansen is a quick way to get to Okayama!
My son does not like guided tours so I booked the ticket to view the historical places in Hiroshima. So far I am impressed the tickets were easy to pick up at the tourist ticket station. I reserved seats at the ticket office for no extra cost. The train it self is air conditioned, very spacious, has socket to charge electronics and is quite so my son can sleep after he enjoyed. his bento box (which we purchased at shin-Osaka station) The journey is smooth, and comfortable.
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
Bought the voucher when I arrived to Hiroshima station and got the QR code within minutes so I could go straight to the green ticket machines and exchange them for a shinkansen ticket back. I could choose any type of Shinkansen for the same price, so I went with the very pretty and modern Sakura. Seat selection was also free. What a great deal, thanks Klook!
i had to redeem it on the customer service. they were so helpful and made getting the tickets with no worries. they reserved the seats for me, and were very thoughtful whether we have luggage or not. they also explained what tickets to use
The Shinkansen ride from Osaka to Hiroshima was fast and comfortable, making travel between the two cities easy and efficient. However, we had a little trouble at the train station because the QR code reader on the ticket machine wasn’t working properly. It took quite some time, and we had to ask for help from the station personnel. The good thing is, we were not late for our tour.
One of the best experiences of my life, the hello kitty shinkanzen. I loved it so much, I got so many souvenirs, and we were able to enjoy Okayama where we got off. we saw the castle and the garden, it was beautiful :)
I got the redemption code immediately after ordering online, and I could redeem the ticket at the machine as soon as I got it, which was very convenient. I will choose to buy it again next time.
Highly recommended! If you're planning to take the Sanyo Shinkansen, I strongly suggest purchasing this ticket. You can redeem the physical ticket directly from a JR green ticket machine using the Klook QR code, and also reserve your seats at the same time. It's a very cost-effective option. The redemption instructions are clear. P.S. When entering the gate, remember to insert both tickets into the ticket gate simultaneously.
