MaudieT56 Posted September 17, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Hello, We are arriving on the Azamara Journey on March 19 into Yokohama port. I’d appreciate some ideas of getting our group of 6 people with luggage from the port to Akasuka. Easy enough to use the train? Or are we better off getting a transfer organised and if so does anyone have any recommendations please? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceMuzz Posted September 17, 2023 #2 Share Posted September 17, 2023 It is difficult to understand where you are going. Is it Asakusa in the North part of Tokyo - or Akasaka in Central Tokyo ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BruceMuzz Posted September 17, 2023 #4 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Much depends on your budget, the time of day you want to go, and how many suitcases you are carrying. 6 Aussies with a lot of cases will fill 2 Japanese Taxis. The taxi fare is about US$200 per taxi from Osanbashi Terminal to Asakusa. Travel time is about 90 minutes. You could utilize Takkyubin Services from the Cruise Terminal. You would give your suitcases to the Takkyubin people in the Terminal, pay around US$10 per bag, and they would deliver the cases to your hotel the next day. You could take your smaller carry-on bags with you on the train. Two streets away from Osanbashi is Nihon-Odori subway station. The Minato-Mirai Line train will take you from that station to Shibuya Station for about US$4 per person. The regular train takes about 40 minutes; the Express is 29 minutes. At Shibuya, you transfer to the Ginza Line. You ride it all the way to the end of the line, which is Asakusa. Travel time is about 35 minutes. Fare is about US$2 per person. Your hotel is near Asakusa Station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
