JR East Japan Pass 10-day pass (Tohoku area)

From Tokyo to Tohoku region
JR East Pass 10 days

If you purchase a 10-day JR East Pass, you can save time and money by not having to buy tickets every day and by freely changing trains. You can also travel across the eastern part of Japan (East Japan) from Tokyo, so go on a wider, more special trip to Japan!

I recommend this to these people

✅ For those who want to travel to the Tohoku region by Shinkansen
From Tokyo, you can easily travel to major cities in Tohoku, such as Sendai, Aomori, Morioka, and Akita, by Shinkansen.

✅ For those planning a long-term trip of 5 days or more
Since it can be used for 10 consecutive days, it is the perfect pass for a longer travel itinerary rather than just one or two days.

✅ People who want to save on transportation costs
If you find Shinkansen or limited express train fares burdensome, save on transportation costs with the JR East Pass! There is no limit to the number of rides you can take, even if you move around various cities and visit various places for 10 days.

✅ Those who plan to visit tourist destinations linked to Tobu Railway such as Nikko or Kinugawa Onsen
You can also use reserved seats on limited express trains operated jointly by JR and Tobu, making your trip to Nikko especially convenient.

✅ Those who need to travel to the airport, such as by Tokyo Monorail or Sendai Airport Railroad
It includes airport access, so you can use it conveniently for transportation when entering and leaving the country!
