Hi,
I have two questions.
1) I have made a reservation on the website "highwaybus.com" for bus tickets from Shinjuku to Takayama. Where do I go to collect my tickets and make payment? I am leaving for Takayama on 10-Oct-2016.
2) Where do I purchase Three-Star Alps Unlimited Ride Shinjuku Pass Type-S2? Is this a better ticket compare to the above tickets I have reserved at the website highwaybus.com? Or should I purchase the tickets from takayama to Hirayu Onsen and Shinhotaka Ropeway separately when I have arrived Takayama?

Thank you for your assistance.

Hi there,

Regarding the inquiry 1, you can pay and pick up your ticket at Shinjuku Expressway Bus Terminal on the day of departure.

Regarding to the inquiry 2, it depends on your itinerary. Are you planning to visit places like Matsumoto, Kamikochi, Shirakawa-go and Hirayu Onsen, etc.? This unlimited free pass includes a round trip highway bus ticket from Shinjuku to Matsumoto and 4-Day unlimited ride pass for Matsumoto, Takayama, Shirakawago, Kamikochi, Norikura Kogen and Shinhotaka ropeway.

If you want to travel around the area for three days, I would suggest purchasing this package deal.
However, if you are not interested in visiting Matsumoto, Shirakawago, and so on, it might be better to just purchase a round trip ticket from Shinjuku to Takayama and get the rest of tickets for local trains and buses in Takayama.

Please note that the ticket office differs if your are purchasing the three-Star Alps Unlimited Ride Shinjuku Pass Type-S2.
Please see the attached file for the ticket office. Please book from Shinjuku to Takayama online in advance and purchase the ticket.

I hope this is clear to you.

Have a nice trip!
