Narita bus to Hilton Hotel
Need the website for the Narita airport bus that goes to the Hilton hotel in Tokyo. Also I read somewhere that there might be a deal that includes a metro 3day pass when you purchase a round trip bus ticket. Not sure if it was the bus that drops off at the hotels so can someone enlighten me on this and maybe give me the correct web site?
Thanks, Billt |

Here is the link for the metro pass and limousine bus "set." Page down near the bottom to see the "set" for Narita Airport and the limousine bus. A round trip limousine bus ticket, combined with a 3 day metro pass costs 6,000 yen.
http://www.tokyometro.jp/en/ticket/v...ort_bus/#anc02 You can get the combined "set" at the limousine bus counter. In Japan, you can be sure to get a knowledgeable young lady at the ticket counter who will be fully aware of the combined pass. I just love Japan for that reason--I bought a "cute" pass in Kagoshima last year that allowed me to go on the ferry and all the buses for a day, and the cute pass actually was quite cute. |
But that site has buses that do not appear to stop at the hotels, just some station. Did I read it wrong?

Ah, here we go:
https://www.limousinebus.co.jp/en/in...ts/subwaypass/ The link above gives you basically the same information as the link I posted earlier, except it originates from the site that jacketwatch showed. Therefore, they are one in the same. The Tokyo metro website explains that the bus takes you to "Downtown Tokyo", when it fact it drops you at whatever hotel you need. Hope this clears it up. And don't worry at all. Japan is the one place in the world where everyone is smart and well-informed about stuff like this. They will know how to help you at the airport counter. |

Can I use a credit card to buy these bus tickets?
|
Yes, you can, the wonderful lady at the counter will accept cash or credit card. In fact, I have a "no foreign transaction" credit card that I use quite easily all over Japan, including for small purchases at groceries stores. It's sure easier than trying to find an ATM that accepts foreign cards. And you don't have to worry about credit card fraud in Japan.
Not that you asked, but get some cash from an ATM at the airport. The airport machines take foreign cards, and it's easier to get it done there, rather than hunting down a machine in Tokyo. I'm sure you will have a lovely and relaxed time in Tokyo. I think it's fun asking people for directions. They will typically walk you to wherever you are going and have a nice conversation with you. You'll see, it's like no other place on earth. |
