Transporte em Prefeitura de Saitama

川越の観光ツアーはとても良かったです。天気はかなり暑かったですが、バスに何度も自由に乗り降りできました。このパスは、電車やバスで移動しながら街を探索するのが好きな人にとって有益です。

This was an easy, one-transfer ride from Seibu Shinjuku to Kawagoe Station and back! No hassle, just went there, rode one train, and I was in Kawagoe in an hour. It makes a day trip to the countryside very, very accessible! Plus, it's cheap for a roundtrip ticket!

I love this pass. The first day was a little difficult because sometimes there was no staff near the gate. We had to call a staff member using the machine and show the pass through the camera, and then they would let us enter the gate. For the next 5 days, it was easy to use, and I even used this pass to go to Narita Airport. I will definitely use this pass again next time.

Due to time constraints, I couldn't visit both Chichibu and Kawagoe, so I ended up going to Chichibu and Seibu-Kyujo-mae. Following everyone's advice, I added an express ticket for Chichibu, and it was really worth it! The train was super cute and comfortable, making for a very pleasant ride! Chichibu wasn't particularly lively since it wasn't during a festival period, and many shops in the shopping street were closed (I heard they open in the evening? We went during the day), but it still had a lot of charm. I went to Hitsujiyama Park, but since it wasn't flower season yet, I just took a walk. If you have time, you can enjoy a hot spring bath in front of the station (I didn't go this time). Since it wasn't baseball season, I could only take photos outside the Seibu Lions Stadium, but the small train that goes there was very cute, so fans might want to check it out. Overall, it's a very convenient one-day pass! I hope to have the chance to see the Chichibu Night Festival and other places next time.
