Here are 10 benefits compared to other methods.
Tried booking Shinkansen tickets on the official JR websites? We did, and it was a nightmare! That’s why we created an easy-to-use booking system for travelers like you.

Your time in Japan is precious. Let us handle the tedious task of booking Shinkansen tickets, so you can spend more time enjoying the incredible cities of Japan! At train stations, be prepared for long lines, especially during peak times. Skip the wait and make the most of your trip!
Reserving seats at the last minute can be risky. If you're traveling with family or a group, you might end up sitting separately, or even standing during peak periods. To ensure you and your group are seated together, we recommend securing your seats before arriving in Japan or at the train station. Feel free to ask us to reserve your seats in advance.
Japan’s train system can be overwhelming, even for those who live here.
