Airport <=> Mid-City: Getting into Tokyo by train from Narita
  • Tip Rating:
  • 'Mode': TO
    Category: Train
    Getting TO/AROUND: There are two representative rail systems to travel between Narita Airport and the Tokyo mid-city. One is Narita Express (N'EX) by JAPAN RAIL and the other is Skyliner by KEISEI

    N'EX takes you to the terminal stations not only in Tokyo like Ueno, Tokyo, Shinagawa and Shinjuku but also in Kanagawa and Saitama; Yokohama and Omiya.

    You can reach to Ueno station directly with Keisei Skyliner.

    Of cource both rails have the common local lines besides the express.

    Getting TO/AROUND: Domestic flights take Haneda Airport. If you have a chance to make use of Haneda, 30mins travel between Haneda Airport and Hamamatsucho station in TOKYO MONORAIL would be nice. The monorail runs the height along the Tokyo coast.

    You can take KEIHIN KYUKO (KEIKYU) if you prefer railways that run on/under the ground.
