Japan Rail Pass
The Japan Rail Pass is specifically designed for tourists and must be bought outside Japan.
It allows unlimited travel on Japan Rail lines and affiliated buses and ferries.
Passes are available in two classes:
- Green (1st Class)
- Ordinary (2nd Class)
For periods of 7, 14 or 21 days of consecutive travel, starting from your first day of travel.
The Pass is excellent value for money with the 7 Day Ordinary Pass costing the same as one return ticket between Tokyo and Kyoto.
The Japan Rail Pass also offers holders a 10% discount on reservations made locally for hotels within the Japan Rail Hotel Group (your Pass must be shown at check-in).
