It’s convenient to book in advance and you don’t need to go online to grab tickets yourself. The location will help provide a seat next to you! Although there will be a booking fee, it is very convenient and I will use it again, thank you!

There is a smoking area sign in carriage 16, but when we asked the officer, he said all Shinkansen trains are smoke-free.

It is very convenient to order the Tokaido Shinkansen from Klook to travel from Tokyo to Kyoto, and you can choose your needs. It is a very easy-to-use online platform. Like it!

You can directly redeem the 3-day coupon at the vending machine at the subway station. You can take the subway to various popular attractions in Tokyo. It is very convenient and suitable for travelers who travel independently.

It is very reasonable because it is counted from the time of ticket exchange! (I bought it for 72 hours and used it for 3 nights and 4 days) It is very convenient because you can exchange it right away at the kiosk of most subway stations, not just at a designated station. ㅎㅎ
