This time, a travel pass is included, allowing unlimited entry and exit from the station and making it easier to find shops. However, not all stores in the Gransta shopping mall accept the pass, so it's recommended to plan what you want to buy and the store locations in advance, and confirm with the store before using the pass.

The long-awaited trip to Owakudani to see the crater was truly unique. We also got to experience the Hakone pirate ship and cable car rides, and even visited Enoshima, which is currently very popular in Korean dramas. It was a fantastic experience! Thank you to our guide, Feng Wanting, for her meticulous explanations and excellent itinerary planning; everything was perfectly arranged! 👍

I redeemed the JR Tokyo Wide Pass directly at Narita Airport this time. The process was smooth and the instructions were clear, which was a big plus as I didn't have to go to a counter in the city. For someone who had just landed and still had luggage, less travel meant less expense, so the overall first impression was that it was "friendly to beginners." 🧳🗺️ In actual use, the biggest advantage is the wide range of routes covered. Places near Tokyo like Karuizawa, Kawaguchiko, and Nikko can all be covered in one trip. 🚄 As long as the itinerary is planned in advance, taking JR trains for long distances over several consecutive days quickly recoups the cost, making it very cost-effective. Seating arrangements and transfers were also smooth, requiring minimal planning. 📍 Overall, this pass is suitable for "itinerary-oriented" travelers. Those who plan their routes in advance and focus on key destinations will benefit the most. It's not for impromptu, random travel, but as long as the direction is clear, transportation costs can be kept very low. 💡
