Private car, train or bus?
For routes, fares and timetables, check the operators directly:
- JR East: https://www.jreast.co.jp/e/

A private car is usually easier when:
- You have a lot of luggage. Changing trains means carrying bags between levels and finding the right exit. A private car takes you from the airport to your accommodation.
- You are travelling with 3 or more people. Pricing is per vehicle, so the cost per person falls as the group grows. Work out whether it pays off for your party and vehicle size.
- You are travelling with children or older relatives. You can book child seats and avoid transfers and carrying bags.
- You arrive late at night or early in the morning. Check the operators for first and last train times; our service runs 24 hours.
- You are coming from Narita. The ride is longer, and going door to door avoids changing trains.
If you are travelling alone or as a pair with light luggage, the train is also a reasonable choice.
Booking tips for a shopping trip
- Give the full name and address of your accommodation, ideally with the Japanese name, so the driver can navigate.
- If it sits on a small side street, let us know when booking and our team will confirm the best drop-off point with the driver.
- Luggage tends to grow on a shopping trip. If you expect to carry a lot home on a departure transfer, tell us the number of pieces so we can suggest the right vehicle.
- If you need to stop somewhere first (for example to drop bags), just let us know in advance and we'll arrange it, up to 3 stops per booking.
