Dear Sir/Madam,

I am planning a trip for four adults, including two elderly travelers. My itinerary is as follow:

Sunday, 11/3: arrive Tokyo at 2:45 p.m.

Monday, 11/4: to Shibu Onsen by Nagano Shinkansen bullet train to Nagano Station for 50 minutes (8:36 a.m.), then Nagano Electric Railway Express to Yudanaka Station for 50 minutes (11:33 a.m.), and then taxi to Shibu Onsen

Tuesday, 11/5: Matsumoto/Takayama by Yudanaka Station at for 50 minutes at 8:20 a.m. to Nagano Station to Matsumoto via Limited Express Shinano for 50 minutes at 10:00 a.m. and then Nohi bus for 2 hours and 20 minutes at 2:05 p.m.

Wednesday, 11/6: day trip to Shirakawago by Nohi bus for 50 minutes at 7:50 a.m. and then to Kanazawa for 1 hour and 15 minutes at 12:20 p.m.; returning from Kanazawa at 4:00 p.m. or from Shirakawago at 12:35 or 2:35 p.m.

Thursday, 11/7: Tsumago (Kiso Valley) by

Saturday, 11/9: back to Tokyo by

Would kindly help with the route from Takayama to Tsumago and then to Tokyo? What kind of pass should I get? I also appreciate any advice. Thank you.

Best regards,
Laura Phan

Hi Laura Phan,

I had a look at your itinerary for the best option but there's no pass that matches your itinerary and would help you make savings. As such, I suggest just buying the tickets as you travel. From Takayama to Tsumago: take the train to Nagoya station then a local train to Nagiso station.

Hope this helps :)
