Are you wondering about the best way to travel from Kyoto to Tokyo? Should you take a plane or the
Shinkansen? If you're looking to save on transportation costs, then we highly recommend taking the
highway bus!
The highway bus offers an affordable option that allows you to save on travel expenses. For example, on
weekdays, bus fares can be as low as 2,500 yen. The overnight highway bus from Kyoto to Tokyo takes
around 7 hours (exact time depends on the specific service). This allows you to travel at night, saving
on one night's accommodation and arriving in Tokyo refreshed and ready to explore.
Taking the highway bus from popular tourist spots like Arashiyama and Gion is very convenient, as these
locations have bus stops that make boarding easy. Additionally, there are many highway bus stops near JR
Kyoto Station, where several hotels are located, giving you even more options.
Choosing to travel by highway bus not only saves money but also allows you to enjoy the scenic views
along the way, experiencing the diverse landscapes from Kyoto to Tokyo. It's an economical and
comfortable way to travel, ideal for those looking to reduce transportation costs. Opting for the
highway bus enriches your journey and offers greater flexibility in your travel plans.
If the bus code starts with an X or a Z then you can make a booking from one month in advance.
For all other buses, bookings can be made between 1 and 4 months before the intended departure
date.
We suggest that you visit our website closer to your desired departure date and make a booking
then.
