When Japan finally reopens to foreign visitors, there are deals to be had while in the country.

One of the best deals for foreign tourists are those offered by Japan Rail and other rail companies.

Time Out Tokyo has posted some of the best discount train deals and rail passes for excursions from Tokyo.

They begin with:

Japan’s legendarily efficient train network is a thing of beauty. We love being able to zip around the country on a shinkansen for a weekend getaway, but that convenience often comes with a hefty price tag. A trip from Tokyo to Osaka can cost around ¥15,000 one-way.

Thankfully, Japan’s railway companies offer package deals for trips on a budget. Deals can include shinkansen tickets to and from your destination, unlimited public transport once you’re there, and even discounts on local attractions. 

Whether you want to spend a day exploring Tokyo, take a day trip to Nikko, or travel to Osaka for the weekend, be sure to check out these deals before you book your next trip.
