About this site and how we check

What this site does

We collect Japan's rail and sightseeing passes by region and compare them on the same points: price, how days are counted, what is not covered and who can buy. The aim is to show the conditions you need before buying, not advertising copy.

How we check

• Prices and conditions are taken from the official pages of the companies and local governments that issue each pass. We do not use personal blogs or round-up articles as sources.
• When an official page shows no price, we use a sales page that the official site itself lists, and say so in the sources.
• Each page shows the date we checked and the source pages.
• We do not write what the official pages do not say. If eligibility is not stated officially, we say "not stated".
• Passes that ended or were renamed are kept as dated records instead of being deleted.
• Closures and suspensions are written as what the official page said on the date we checked. Please check the official page for the current status.

About ads

This site may earn a commission when you buy through links to Klook or KKday (affiliate links). On every pass page the link to the official page comes first. Commissions never change the prices, conditions or order we show, and passes with no Klook or KKday link are listed in the same way.

English and Traditional Chinese pages

Names of attractions and passes follow the operators' official English and Traditional Chinese pages. The body text is translated from our Japanese pages.
