Nikko Pass from Asakusa to Tochigi 2024/2/3 16:52
Am I able to use the Nikko Pass to travel from Asakusa station to Tochigi station? Or Utsunomiya station? How much will the Limited Express fee be?

Also, can I use the Nikko Pass to board the train at Tochigi or Utsunomiya station to return to Asakusa?

I am a foreigner in Japan on a temporary visit.

Yes. Tochigi Station is one of two stations where the pass allows for stop-overs (Skytree Station is the other).

Or Utsunomiya station?

No, the branch line to Ustinomiya is not covered.

How much will the Limited Express fee be?

If you want to use limited express trains on both legs, you would have to buy two separate express tickets. It is 1,250 yen between Asakusa and Tochigi and 950 yen between Tochigi and Tobu-Nikko. About 200 yen more expensive if you use the special Spacia X train.

Thank you.
I decided to take a highway bus from Narita airport to Nikko instead so that I don’t need to transfer. I think price is about the same.

Thank you.
Do you have details of how I can buy ticket for the bus?
I read that I can only buy from the Keisei Bus counter when I arrive at Narita airport. Is that correct?
Is that the only bus that provides the Narita to Nikko transfer?
Japan Bus Online doesn’t give details.

The only way to buy the bus tickets from Narita Airport to Nikko is to go to the Keisei Bus Ticket Counter at Narita Airport.

But there is just a single bus per day around 14:40! And it takes forever.

Oh

I found this timetable:
https://kanto.bus-japan.net/timetable/narita-01.php

I thought there were more buses…

It would really be easier by bus so that I don’t need to transfer. We are 3 adults.

The plan is to go to Nikko when we arrive.

Then rent a car to travel to Aizuwakamatsu (7 Apr), Urabandai, Sendai (9 Apr) and Hiraizumi (10 Apr).
Return the car at Utsunomiya.
Then take the train to Haneda to depart.

I have only made the first night hotel reservation.

The timetable is out of date. Currently only the 14:35 departure is operating. All others have been cancelled since the coronavirus era.

There is a possibility that some more services may be back in service from this spring, although no specific announcement has been made yet.
