• After receiving your Shinkansen ticket and travel guide from the staff at the meeting point in Tokyo Station, you can start your trip freely.
  
• Experience riding on Japan's proud high-speed train, the JR Shinkansen! There's no need to worry about traffic jams and it's punctual, so you'll have plenty of time to enjoy the food and shopping in Karuizawa.

• It's definitely a good deal! The price includes a round-trip ticket on the Hokuriku Shinkansen and a souvenir of one Sawaya jam (choose from a designated variety).

• Karuizawa Prince Shopping Plaza, one of the largest resort-style shopping malls in Japan, is an attractive location with approximately 240 stores scattered across a vast site of approximately 260,000 square meters, and is a 3-minute walk from the south exit of the station.

• We also recommend a stroll around Kyu-Karuizawa Ginza, a place loved by Japanese people (20 minutes on foot from the north exit).

Karuizawa, where you can see snow in winter, is now also very popular as a gourmet and shopping town! It's just over an hour from Tokyo to get to winter Karuizawa. You can also enjoy meals at the fashionable Karuizawa Prince Shopping Plaza. For those who want to enjoy skiing, the Karuizawa Prince Hotel Ski Resort is just a 10-minute walk away! (at your own expense) This plan includes a souvenir of "Sawaya Jam" (1 piece), which is very popular among Japanese people. Be sure to take home some delicious jam made in Karuizawa!
