The price is affordable and includes bus tickets from Takayama to Shin-Hotaka and Shin-Hotaka. It is cheaper than buying bus tickets and cable car tickets separately. It is worth recommending.

It is a fairyland-like place with a beautiful environment. It is cost-effective to use the ticket and save a lot of travel expenses. It needs to be redeemed at the Nongfei Bus Center on the day of use.

The 2-day bus pass includes a round-trip ticket to Kamikochi and a Shin-Hotaka Ropeway ticket. It's a great value. It's cheaper than buying a real pass. Plus, you can use a code to get an additional discount. It's easy to use. Just show the QR CODE at the Takayama bus center on the day you start using the pass and you can exchange it right away.

The Okuhida Kamikochi and Shin-Hotaka Cable Cars in October are holy places for autumn leaves. You can use this two-day ticket to take the Nohi Bus, which is very convenient for viewing the mountains. It is very value for money.
