Wunderschöne Fahrt über die Berge

Alles pünktlich und zuverlässig. Es wäre allerdings gut, wenn klarer gemacht würde, dass es sich um die Verbindung von zwei regulären lokalen Buslinien handelt. Wir stiegen in Koyasan an der Haltestelle Nr. 6 Senjuin-bashi in einen Bus der Linie 12 (als Koyasan & Kumano Access Bus) und fuhren damit bis zur Roadstation Gomasan Sky Tower. Leider reichte die Zeit dort nur dafür kurz Verpflegung einzukaufen, aber nicht, den Aussichtsturm zu besteigen. Mit einem anderen Bus (ebenfalls Koyasan & Kumano Access Bus) ging es weiter nach Ryujin Onsen, wo eine ca. 40-minütige Rast eingelegt wurde. In Hongucho Kawayu stiegen wir schließlich aus. Wer mit großem Gepäck reist wie wir, muss die Koffer auf freie Sitze packen.

automated translation: Everything was on time and reliable. However, it would be helpful if it were made clearer that this is a connection between two regular local bus routes. We boarded a bus on Route 12 (operated as the Koyasan & Kumano Access Bus) at Stop No. 6, Senjuin-bashi, in Koyasan, and travelled on it to the Gomasan Sky Tower Road station. Unfortunately, we only had time there to buy some snacks, but not to climb the observation tower. We continued on another bus (also the Koyasan & Kumano Access Bus) to Ryujin Onsen, where we stopped for a break of about 40 minutes. We finally got off at Hongu-cho Kawayu. Anyone travelling with large luggage, like us, has to stow their suitcases on empty seats.

Great bus with fantastic views

Highly recommend! Very punctual and the drivers were used to foreigners despite not speaking well English they could share the right information at the right time. The views were fantastic on the way, it’s definitely worth it!

Great views and easy access

The information we got both in advance and the information at the bus was good and clear. Easy ride and great views of the mountains! Maby not the most comfortable seats for a long ride, but nice with a stop along the way to stretch your body and take a bathroom break. We enjoyed the ride!

Very easy to ride, nice help from drivers

The drivers were all very kind and help us to find the good bus and change easily between transfer. The booking was very easy. Maybe it should be good to have more space inside the bus. But everything was perfect. Thank you so much!
