Bus Ticket to Shin Hotaka Ropeway

Hi, we intend to visit Shin Hotaka Ropeway from Takayama on 26 Nov. If we were to purchase round trip nohi bus ticket, does that mean that we would have to confirm the time for coming back to Takayama at the point of purchasing the ticket ?

No. These buses don't have reserved seats, so you can use any of them within the period of validity of your round trip ticket.

Hi, so am I right to say I can actually get round trip tickets but cannot reserve for a particular time slot to come back ? Meaning that I will have to queue on a first come first served basis ? If the bus is full, then I will have to wait for the next bus ?

The bus won't be full, and you won't have to wait for the next. There may not even be a queue to line up.
