Bus destinations

What Buses routes are there in Japan?

We sell 2836 Buses routes in Japan, serving 122 places, run by 27 operators. Every one of those routes has an operator that actually serves it, so the count is the network we can sell rather than every pair of places on a map.

How much do Buses tickets in Japan cost?

The cheapest Buses fare in Japan is €10.07 for one passenger, across the 2,836 routes we sell there. The median route runs 166 km in a straight line, which is the distance that fare should be read against before comparing it to anywhere else.

Can I travel out of Japan by Buses?

0 of the Buses routes we sell touching Japan cross a border and 2836 stay inside it, reaching 0 other countries including . Cross border routes are usually the ones where the fare and the journey time differ most between operators.

Which operators run Buses services in Japan?

27 operators run Buses services on routes we sell in Japan: Bihoku, Hokutetsu, Iruka Kotsu, Kaetsunou, Keio Dentetsu. Each is a real carrier from the published operator catalog, and each has its own fares and conditions. The operator table on this page compares them on speed, flexibility and what is on board.

What is the longest Buses route in Japan?

The longest Buses route we sell touching Japan runs from Kawasaki to Kurashiki, 552 km in a straight line. The median route in the country is 166 km, so this one is a considerable outlier and the fares on it behave differently from the rest.

Where these numbers come from

Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modeled number pass for a filed one.
