Just say sumimasen to every station that you pass and voila, they will let you pass. Easy, and it has a lot of perks since most of the line except Shinkansen you can use it specifically if you just stroll around Tokyo and Yokohama. It’s better compared to the metro 7 days pass.

Evertime we want to board we have to present the pass to the staff. If there's no staff then we have to find the gate with the staff. Also if the staff is serving others then we have to wait. It would be great if the pass is in barcode form

Ensure your phone always has battery and connection because we need to show the ticket on our phone.

No need to exchange tickets, because to use it you just have to show it to the officer, only at small stations many officers are not familiar with this type of pass

The Greater Tokyo Pass is very helpful and practical, if you want to explore Tokyo and its surroundings without the hassle of buying individual tickets. This pass covers a wide area of various private train and bus lines, making travel more flexible and comfortable.

I realized greater tokyo pass not help me for cost efficient since I only used for bus n subway. This pass also not cover bus to gotemba and narita transportation. So if only for bus n subway, better not use this. Before purchase this, please calculate the cost carefully.

Great to have. Makes it easy to navigate the greater Tokyo area. While possible, I won't recommend using from airport to city since the route takes longer. Unless you are staying 3 days and 2 nights only.

Easy to get around Tokyo because of the pass. No need to worry about buying subway tickets to get from point A to point B. Won't recommend it though for use from Narita to downtown Tokyo especially if you're arriving in the afternoon unless you are staying only 3 days. Overall, it was a great experience.

With greater pass we feel like a local and of course value for money with this pass
