Location & Transportation

Sendai is near the Best Sightseeing Area, Matsushima, which means " Pine Islands", is about 260 islands in Bay of Matsushima in Miyagi, covered with pine trees. The harmony between islands and sea makes breathtaking beauty. It is said that even Matsuo Basho, one of the most famous haiku poet in Japan, couldn't compose good haiku, overwhelmed by the beauty.

Sendai is located 350 kilometers north of Tokyo on the pacific coast of Japan. Domestic flights to Sendai Airport from Airports of Narita, Nagoya, Osaka and so on are available. The JR Shinkansen Express (bullet train) connects major cities in Japan, and it takes only 2 hours from Tokyo to Sendai.

The trip from Narita Airport to Sendai takes around 3.5 hours by JR Narita Express (a railway between Narita Airport and Tokyo) or Keisei Line (a railway between Narita Airport and Ueno) and JR Tohoku Shinkansen Express.

Via Narita Airport:  Take either the JR Narita Express or a Airport Limousine Bus to JR Tokyo Station, or Keisei Line (Skyliner) to JR Ueno Station.
-
JR Narita Express to JR Tokyo Station is available and it takes 60 minutes at about 3000 yen.
-
Airport Limousine Bus to JR Tokyo Station is also available and it takes about 80 minutes at 3000 yen.
-
Keisei Line (Skyliner) to Keisei Ueno Station (100m away from JR Ueno Station) is also available and it takes about 50 minutes at 2400 yen.

Via JR Station of Tokyo or Ueno: Take the JR Tohoku Shinkansen Express to Sendai. The train is available every 15 minutes and it takes 2 hours at about 10,000-11,000 yen.

Via Sendai Airport: Railway (Sendai Airport Access Line) runs frequently to JR Sendai Station at 630 yen. Scheduled travel time is about 25 minutes.
