Getting to Hakuba from Tokyo
Public transport or public transport....
If
you
have
made
your
own
way
to
Tokyo
from
the
airport,
then
getting
to
Hakuba
should
hold
no
fear.
It
comes
down
to
either
an
express
bus
or
public
trains,
the
quickest
method
(bullet
train
&
bus
combination)
taking
just
3
hrs,
but
a
direct
express
bus
will
be
the
cheapest.
Depending
on
how
much
other
travel
you
will
be
doing
in
Japan
you
may
want
to
consider
getting
a
Japan
Rail
pass
(need
to
get
it
before
you
arrive in Japan and you can get a
discounted one here
).
1. Bullet train to Nagano then bus.
2. Direct Express Bus
3. Train only
Express bus
Tokyo
Hakuba
5 hrs
There
is
only
1
direct
TRAIN
to
Hakuba
a
day,
and
that
leaves
at
07.30
am
from
Shinjuku
station
in
Tokyo.
If
you
can
get
that
great,
if
not
then
you
will
need
to
change
trains
a
number
of
times,
and
it
will
take
you
much
longer
than
either
the
express
bus
or
bullet
train
options.
Make
sure
you
get
a
Japan
Rail
pass
before you come.
