For a limited period between 1 August 2024 and 30 November 2024, a new transportation web service is provided for travelers who visit Tazawako area! The transportation web service is named “TAKKO MaaS”. TAKKO MaaS enables you to search for routes to your destination, book taxis, and purchase bus and taxi tickets. Please try to access the smartphone-only link here!
If you are visiting the Nyuto Onsen Village, it takes approximately 40-50mins by car from Tazawako Station. By using TAKKO MaaS, you can make a reservation for a TAKKO Taxi (4-seater) that will bring you from Tazawako Staiton (Area A) to your onsen hotel(Area E) for 10,900 yen per car. You feel convenient if you are travelling as a family. You can also use the same service to get around the Lakeside area, to visit the Statue of Tatsuko and other attractions there, during the operating hours
between 8.30am and 5.30pm.
If you are travelling alone or on a tighter budget and are willing to wait for buses, you can also get a 1-day TAKKO bus pass. Do make use of the route search to find schedules. One important tip is to note the last service to your final destination to avoid getting stuck in a location without any transport options.
When you purchase either a taxi ticket or bus pass, it will show up as follows in your TAKKO MaaS, tied to your account. For the TAKKO Taxi, you will need a reservation at least a day in advance.
