Ticket - Train - Tokyo station - Toyohashi

The travel time varies depending on the type of Shinkansen taken. Hikari trains, which make fewer stops, generally connect Toyohashi to Tokyo Station in 1 hour 30 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes. Kodama trains, which stop at all intermediate stations, take approximately 2 hours 15 minutes to 2 hours 30 minutes for the same journey.

The Japanese rail system does not offer a 'return' ticket in the strict sense, but rather the purchase of two separate one-way tickets. For a journey from Toyohashi to Tokyo Station, the cost of a one-way ticket varies. An unreserved seat on a Hikari or Kodama train generally costs between 7,000 and 8,000 Japanese Yen (JPY). For a reserved seat, the price is slightly higher, ranging from 8,000 to 9,000 JPY. We advise checking the exact fares at the time of purchase, as they may vary slightly.

The schedules for the last trains can vary depending on the day of the week (weekdays, weekends, public holidays). Generally, the last Shinkansen bound for Tokyo departs Toyohashi around 9:00 PM to 9:30 PM. This is frequently a Kodama train. We recommend checking the precise schedules on official JR websites or at stations on the day of your travel to ensure you have the latest information.

Some Hikari Shinkansen trains do indeed stop at Toyohashi Station, offering a faster option than the Kodama to reach Tokyo. However, not all Hikari trains serve this station. We advise consulting detailed schedules available online or at stations. These will clearly indicate the Hikari train numbers that include Toyohashi as a stop, thus allowing for more efficient travel planning.
