5日間JR EASTパス：長野と新潟の素晴らしさを発見

Ready to Ride? Here's Where Your Pass Takes You

• JR EAST Lines: Travel across key areas in the east.

• Tokyo Monorail: Glide smoothly around Tokyo.

• Izu Kyuko Line: Discover what Izu has to offer.

• Hokuetsu Express: Explore without limitations.

• Echigo Tokimeki Railway: Specifically between Naoetsu and Arai.

• Special Express Trains:

• Get comfy in reserved seats on the Nikko, Kinugawa, and SPACIA Kinugawa that journey between JR East and Tobu Railway lines.

Tobu Railway Insights:

• Regular trains, rapid ones included, are accessible between Shimo-imaichi and Tōbu-nikkō / Kinugawa-onsen.

• If traveling between Kurihashi and Shimo-imaichi, stick to express trains that collaborate with Tobu Railway.

Note: Trains that start and end on Tobu Railway lines aren't included. Ensure your Tobu Railway train starts or ends at a JR station to use your JR EAST PASS (Nagano, Niigata area).

Bus Routes? We've Got You:

• Enjoy the benefits of JR buses in the region, but do keep in mind highway buses and some regular routes aren’t covered.

Important Points for Your JR EAST PASS:

• We'll need an ID for kids to check their age when buying.

• Kids under 6? They're free. But if you want a spot just for them, get a pass.

• Want the fancy Green Cars or GranClass? They cost a bit more.

• Sorry, no discounts for students or young folks.

• Use just one JR EAST PASS at a time, and make sure they don’t overlap.

• This pass won't work on the Tokaido Shinkansen; that's run by someone else.

• The pass doesn’t cover some parts of the Ōito Line and Hokuriku Shinkansen. For the Hokuriku Shinkansen from Itoigawa, buy a regular and an express ticket.

Getting Started with Your Ticket:

1. Once you've booked, check your inbox! A confirmation email will pop up there.

2. Head to one of those green ticket machines. With your e-ticket voucher and non-Japanese passport, you can collect your actual ticket.

3. With your ticket in hand, just breeze through the automated ticket gate, and you're good to go! Safe travels! 🚂
