Now that the JR Pass is not a good deal, we have made use of the Tokyo Subway Pass the last couple of times in Japan. It’s a great value at 1500 JPY for three days. It more than paid for itself. There are, of course, routes that are a little longer when you use the subways rather than the JR trains, but by the same token, some destinations are much easier to reach by subway. For example, the Tsukiji Outer Market requires a long walk to reach if you only use JR trains, but is quite close to a couple of subway stations.
Yes, totally agree! Most of the popular tourist spots in Tokyo are close to each other. It's not worth using JR Pass during the stay in Tokyo central area!
This pass is for tourists who hold a non-Japanese passport, but not for the foreigners with temporary stay status. You can double-check with the staff!!!
thanks for watching Daniel! Yes, you are right! Ha..ha....you can buy it online via Klook before arriving in Japan. If you are in Japan, you can easily get it from the tourist centre in the big metro stations like Ueno, Shinjuku, Ginza etc., or the Tourist Info centre at Haneda and Narita Airport!😊
The 72 hour ticket still available now?
Just hear the information now the card is Rare?

how to transfer to jr line with these passes? how to tap?
You'll have to hop of the metro or subway line, then pay with IC card or pay for a phyical ticket to get on a JR Line.
worst subway systems making it so confusing
Well.....we haven't talked about the train lines yet....if we do, you may wanna take Uber only!! 😁😁
