Those who often travel to Japan on their own must have their own set of transportation strategies. For example, low-cost airlines, Shinkansen, JR and private railways, MRT and buses can all be studied for a long time.Most travel experts are fighting alone or traveling together. The PASS type of traffic strategy is necessary. What if it is a group of multiples of four?Perhaps, sometimes a taxi is also a good choice.As for the tragedy of the Sino-Japanese War in the 2013 Tokyo Classic, it is an alternative situation that has to be!
Based on the two major functions of "communication" and "location" of smart mobile devices, taxi companies in various countries have successively launched taxi-hailing service software to fully utilize the convenience of mobile devices.However, taxi-hailing services usually have to have a local phone number to provide contact with the car dealer, which is not very practical for foreign travelers.Although you can try to provide a fake call or use a prepaid card number to call a car, it will always cause trouble to the dealership and ask for trouble. It is usually not as fast as stopping the car directly on the roadside.
In addition, in the case of Kyoto Bus, if the itinerary is not tight and there is no need to purchase a ￥500 one-day bus ticket per person, if the bus is ￥220 per person, the cost of a four-person one-way bus is ￥880. It is equivalent to the taxi fare of more than 2 kilometers.Let's compare it first, maybe taking a taxi is also a good choice!
