Kyoto → Himeji
| Method | Duration | Cost | Transfers | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Train Tokaido Shinkansen Speed | 45 min | Fare not listed | 0 | Tokaido/Sanyo Shinkansen "Hikari" or "Kodama" (the fastest "Nozomi" service generally does not stop at Himeji). Fast but noticeably pricier than the ordinary-fare alternative. |
| Train Budget | 90 min | Fare not listed | 0 | JR Special Rapid ("Shinkaisoku"), direct with no transfer, ordinary fare only, no reservation needed. A very popular everyday choice despite being slower than the Shinkansen. |
