Ticket - Train - Mishima - Shizuoka

Q: How to get from Mishima to Shizuoka?

To travel from Mishima to Shizuoka, the most direct and fastest option is the Shinkansen (bullet train) on the Tokaido Line. Shinkansen Kodama and Hikari trains regularly serve both cities. Both Mishima Station and Shizuoka Station are major stops, making transfers easy. An alternative is to use local trains on the JR Tokaido Main Line. This option takes longer but can be a solution if budget is a concern or if the traveler wishes to observe more of the local scenery at a slower pace.

Q: What is the Shinkansen price?

The cost of a Shinkansen ticket between Mishima and Shizuoka generally ranges from 2,000 to 3,000 Japanese Yen (JPY) for a non-reserved seat. For a reserved seat in ordinary class, the price is typically around 2,500 to 3,500 JPY. These fares are indicative and may vary depending on the season, train type, and any promotions. It is advisable to check current prices at the time of booking. We recommend purchasing tickets directly at JR ticket counters (Midori-no-Madoguchi) or via automatic ticket machines at the station.

Q: How long does the journey take?

The Shinkansen journey between Mishima and Shizuoka is particularly fast. It generally takes between 15 and 25 minutes to reach your destination, depending on the train type (Kodama or Hikari) and the number of intermediate stops. Local trains on the Tokaido Main Line will take longer, usually between 40 and 55 minutes, with more stops. The punctuality of Japanese trains is a notable characteristic, allowing for precise planning of connections.

Q: Is the JR Pass valid?

Yes, the Japan Rail Pass is valid for Shinkansen Kodama and Hikari journeys between Mishima and Shizuoka. These trains are included in the pass at no additional cost for non-reserved or ordinary reserved seats. It is important to note that Nozomi trains, the fastest Shinkansen on the Tokaido Line, are generally not fully covered by the JR Pass without the purchase of a special "Nozomi Mizuho" supplement. The JR Pass is also valid for local trains on the JR Tokaido Main Line. We recommend checking the specific validity of your JR Pass and its terms of use before your trip.
