JR Sanyo-San'in Area Pass

Highly recommended for those planning a trip from Osaka to Fukuoka and back. You can book the Nozomi line which is very convenient since it has the shortest travel time. If you want an idea we were able to use this pass for: Kansai Aiport to Shin Osaka, Shin Osaka to Hakata (RT), Hakata to Hiroshima (RT), Hiroshima to Miyajima Island, Shin Osaka to Himeji, Himeji to Kobe, Kobe to Osaka.

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.

I used a physical ticket for exchange, so I exchanged it at the West Japan Green Window at Hakata Station and also reserved seats for future Shinkansen and limited express trains, which was very convenient. Highly recommended. Fukuoka - Shin-Yamaguchi - Hiroshima - Onomichi - Okayama - Yonago. Please note that in Fukuoka, you can only take the Shinkansen from Fukuoka to Kokura and cannot transfer to Kyushu JR.

If you're planning a long trip to the West Japan region, we recommend the Sanyo-San'in Pass. Exchanging your voucher for a physical pass is very simple, and you can freely use Shinkansen and limited express trains. This pass offers excellent value for money, allowing you to travel to various areas such as Nara, Kyoto, Himeji, Kobe, Hiroshima, Takamatsu, and Tottori, using reserved seats on Shinkansen and limited express trains.

1. Please confirm the applicable scope of the pass. Some attractions, such as the Miyajima ferry, require an additional tax. 2. If you have enough stamina, this is definitely an excellent choice for a San'in-Sanyo trip, as you can reserve seats an unlimited number of times (the machine can only reserve same-day seats and only 6 times). Therefore, it is recommended to plan your travel itinerary and have the service center staff help you book all transportation after the current day, which will save a lot of time. 3. It is recommended to learn how to take local buses, as transportation in some Sanyo areas is not well-developed and requires combining luggage storage and buses. 4. If you have large luggage, be sure to store it or drop it off at your hotel first to avoid being refused boarding or delaying others. 5. Stamina is key to making the most of this pass. Wishing everyone good health and a pleasant trip!
