How to Move Around Japan?
On April 21, 2025, Encounter Japan Travel hosted an exclusive webinar for travel agents, where we explored the best transportation options in Japan and how to choose the most suitable one based on the region and traveler profile.
Main Modes of Transportation in Japan
During the session, we covered in detail the most relevant mobility options for itinerary design:
- Shinkansen (bullet train): routes, classes, payment methods, and benefits.
- Japan Rail Pass: differences between the national and regional passes.
- Local alternatives: taxis, buses, ride-hailing apps, and domestic flights.
- Customized transport: car rentals, private transfers (private taxis), and the luggage delivery system (Takkyubin).
Based on our experience in tailor-made travel, we shared key tips to make transportation in Japan not just a logistical aspect, but a meaningful part of the travel experience.
