How to travel between Tokyo and Nikko
Nikko is located about 125 kilometers north of Tokyo and is a good one or two day trip from Tokyo. Nikko is connected to Tokyo by Tobu Railway and Japan Railways (JR):
By Tobu Train from Asakusa Station
The Tobu terminal station in Tokyo for trains to Nikko is Tobu Asakusa Station, which is accessible by subway (Ginza and Asakusa Subway Lines). Travelers have a choice between fast and expensive limited express trains and slower but cheaper local and express trains.
There are one or two limited express trains per hour between Asakusa and Tobu-Nikko Station, which take about two hours and cost around 2,700-2,900 yen one way. Some connections require transfer at Shimo-Imaichi Station. By express and local trains, a one-way trip costs only 1390 yen, but takes at least half an hour longer and requires one to three train transfers along the way.
Tobu offers a variety of tickets, which include round trips from Tokyo to Nikko and unlimited use of buses in the Nikko area. Note that the admission ticket does not cover the surcharge required on limited express trains (1360-1470 yen one way). The Japan Rail Pass and other JR passes are not valid on this Tobu train.
By limited express train from Shinjuku Station
Direct limited express trains, in collaboration with Japan Railways (JR) and Tobu Railway, connect JR Shinjuku Station with Tobu Nikko Station. The one-way trip takes two hours and costs 4080 yen. All seats are reserved.
Since trains between Shinjuku and Nikko are partly on the Tobu Railway line, the Japan Rail Pass does not fully cover the cost of the trip. However, thanks to a special agreement, the JR Tokyo Wide Pass, JR East Nagano Niigata Area Pass, JR East Tohoku Area Pass, and JR East South Hokkaido Pass cover the entire trip.
By Japanese Train (JR)
Take the JR Tohoku Shinkansen (from Tokyo Station or Ueno) to Utsunomiya Station and change to the JR Nikko Line. With good connections in Utsunomiya, a one-way trip takes about 100 minutes. Due to the high cost (about 5500 yen one way), this option is attractive to JR pass holders.
From Narita Airport
There are a small number of direct highway buses between Narita Airport and Nikko, taking about 3.5 hours and costing 4600 yen one way. Alternatively, take a bus from the airport to JR Utsunomiya Station (about 3 hours, 4100 yen one way, departures every 60-90 minutes) and then the JR Nikko Line to Nikko (45 minutes, 770 yen, 1-2 departures per hour). Otherwise, travel between the airport and Nikko leads via Tokyo.
Between Gunma Prefecture and Nikko
From late May to late October (29 May to 31 October 2021), there are several bus connections between Nikko and Oze, allowing travelers to combine the two destinations or enter/exit Nikko through the back door through Gunma Prefecture. Buses run between Yumoto Onsen in Okunikko and Kamada at the entrance to Oze. The one-way trip takes one hour and costs 1950 yen. In Kamada it is possible to change to a bus to Numata or Oze.
The above fees and schedules are subject to change at any time. Be sure to check the current yen exchange rate.
Go around
All of Nikko's famous temples and temples are gathered in one area, about two kilometers from Tobu Station and JR Nikko. You can access it by bus (10 minutes, 320 yen one way or 500 yen for a day ticket) or about 30-40 minutes on foot by walking on Nikko's main street.
Two bus lines can be used to access the shrine and shrine:
Buses to Lake Chuzenji stop at "Shinkyo" and "Nishisando" bus stops along the way, from where shrines and temples are a 5-10 minute walk. In addition, there is the World Heritage Meguri loop bus, which loops around the city every 15 minutes and stops a little closer to the shrines and shrines. Get off at "Omotesando" stop for Toshogu and Rinnoji or "Taiyuin-Futarasanjinja-mae" stop for Taiyuin Temple and Futarasan.
Buses connect central Nikko with the Okunikko area, including Lake Chuzenji and Yumoto Onsen in Nikko National Park. A one-way trip to Lake Chuzenji takes about 50 minutes and costs 1,150 yen; to Yumoto Onsen it takes about 80 minutes and costs 1750 yen. A 2-day pass for unlimited bus travel between Nikko and Lake Chuzenji is available for 2,100 yen at Tobu Nikko Station, while a 2-day pass for unlimited travel between Nikko and Yumoto Onsen is available for 3000 yen.
Please note that during the autumn leaf season in October, traffic between central Nikko and Okunikko (Lake Chuzenji and Yumoto Onsen) can be very heavy, and buses can experience severe delays, especially on weekends. If possible, avoid visiting Nikko on weekends and visit during the week) source: japan-guide.com
