Step 5: Discounts and Passes for Japan 2018 Guide

When I was planning my trip I spent a lot of my time looking for discounts and passes for the cities I was staying in. It saved me money in the long run because I didn’t need to buy a 21 day Japan Rail Pass, I only needed a 14 day one for a 3-week trip!

I also used the discounts to get either free or discount entry to places like Osaka’s Umeda Sky Building, Kaiyu Aquarium, Osaka Castle, Kobe’s Nunobiki Herb Garden, Hirosaki Castle and more.

My Discounts and Passes for Japan 2018 Guidebook includes discounts to the following cities:

  • Tokyo
  • Kyoto
  • Osaka
  • Kobe
  • Nara
  • Nikko
  • Hiroshima
  • Miyajima
  • Nagoya
  • Takayama
  • Yokohama
  • Sapporo
  • Tohoku
  • Mount Fuji

If you’re anything like me you want to make your yen go further and have the best holiday possible. Budgeting for your trip is so important because you can ensure you don’t overspend or under save. 

Cost Comparison of Tourist Pass vs Paying Full Amount

I see online a lot of people asking whether they need a Japan Rail Pass and the best thing you can do is compare a Japan Rail Pass vs the discounts and passes I’ve found. There is no need to pay full price for most of the attractions in Japan and many passes offer you unlimited transport!

I want to help all my Japlanners out there who are going in 2018 with this complete guide for ALL the Discounts and Passes in Japan. I’ve scoured the internet and collated every single discount and pass I could find and have made a nifty little guidebook for you.
