Is it worth it?
Add the normal one-way fares of the rides you plan within 2 days (from the fare charts at stations or a route planner).
Express, seat and Green car charges are usually not included in a pass: leave them out of the fares too unless the pass covers them.
How to use it
- Use the automatic gates on the Tsukuba Express; one return trip between your station and Tsukuba.
- On the buses, cable car and ropeway, show the ticket to the staff.
- If the cable car is not running you can use only the ropeway, and vice versa. Pay extra if you ride beyond the covered section.
- Show the ticket at marked facilities (day spas, shops) for benefits.
