Japan WITHOUT a JR Pass: 6 Alternative Travel Options to consider
Everyone's heard of the JR Pass, but did you know prices are set to increase dramatically? In this video, we explore 6 alternative ways you can explore Japan WITHOUT a JR PASS! 🚆
While JR Pass prices soar, regional rail passes can still provide great value, especially if you're sticking to a specific area. Regional passes are exclusive to international tourists and, despite price increases, remain budget-friendly compared to the Nationwide JR Pass.
If you're an adventurous traveler, consider the Seishun 18 Kippu ticket, offering unlimited travel on local and rapid JR Group trains. It's a cost-effective option for those exploring Japan's lesser-known cities, and you can even share the ticket with friends.
Flying domestically can be a faster and cheaper option, especially with budget airlines like Peach and Jetstar Japan. Don't miss the JAL Japan Explorer Pass for affordable flights to over 30 cities.
Local city passes, like Tokyo's 24-hour Metro Pass, are perfect for intensive urban exploring. However, be aware that some cities are phasing out passes due to overtourism.
Highway buses from companies like Willer Express offer an affordable and comfortable way to explore Japan's less-traveled destinations. You can even save on accommodation with overnight buses.
For the adventurous, renting a car can be ideal, especially in rural areas. Remember, you'll need a Japanese driver's license or an International Driving Permit.
In Japan, travel options are diverse, and there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Mix and match to create your perfect Japan trip. Stay connected with pocket Wi-Fi or an e-sim for stress-free navigation.
