In this article, we would like to talk about the travel time from the airport to major stations when you take Keisei Access Express, as well as things to see around the stations!

■Keisei Access Express The Keisei Electric Railway’s Access Express is an express train that you can take casually with just a regular train ticket, without any limited express fee. They run at speeds of up to 120 km/h on the Narita Sky Access Line, which is shared with Keisei Skyliner trains! It is perfect for getting to central Tokyo, as you can reach Asakusa, Nihonbashi, Haneda Airport, and other destinations without transferring.

[Asakusa Station] The traditional district of Asakusa is one of Tokyo’s most popular tourist destinations, famous for the Kaminarimon Gate and Senso-ji Temple. You can also enjoy eating while strolling along Nakamise Street! It is located by the Sumida River, so you can not only enjoy sightseeing cruises, but also take water buses to get to Ryogoku, a district famous for sumo wrestling, and Odaiba, a popular entertainment area by Tokyo Bay.

[Shimbashi Station] Shimbashi is a business district known as the “mecca of salary workers,” but it also has a lively nighttime dining scene, with many traditional izakaya, standing izakaya, and yakitori restaurants, as well as “senbero” spots where you can enjoy a decent amount of food and drinks for just around 1,000 yen (pronounced “sen yen” in Japanese).

●SL Square It is a popular meeting spot, featuring a real steam train on display.

●New Shimbashi Building’s basement floors, the drinking alleys in the Karasumori Exit area, and the drinking street under the railway overpass These spots feature clusters of small drinking establishments that evoke the Showa-era atmosphere and where you can enjoy “senbero.” Chat with Japanese salary workers and go izakaya hopping!

●Ginza Located just a short walk from Shimbashi, Ginza is Japan’s most glamorous and sparkling nighttime district. Shop windows of luxury brands, intimate bars, sophisticated restaurants, and high-end hostess bars—the district immerses you in “Tokyo for adults after work.” It is also nice to enjoy a couple of drinks at back-alley and counter-only bars, or to wrap up your day with a bowl of ramen.

●Yurikamome Shimbashi Station is the first station of the Yurikamome, a new transportation system bound for Odaiba and other areas. It is automated, so you can enjoy the view from both the front and rear cars. Take in the amazing view, as if gliding over the surface of the sea, with sights of high-rise buildings and the Rainbow Bridge!
