By Bus

Land cruisers available in any major tourist center are cheaper though slower than trains. Priced higher than city buses, they can serve better for those in a hurry. These buses stick to the schedule right. Their tours are likely to be commented in Japanese.

Daily inter-city runs are served by comfortable buses of JR, Odakyu, Seibu, Keio, Tokyu and some other bus companies. Most buses provide convenient transfers with major railroad stations.

Many run at night - rather luxurious with reclining seats, toilets, tea and blankets. Others operate by day, offering excellent views alongside.
