SISmooth, fast and professional service, worthy of a real and honest review I feel a moral duty to inform other website visitors that the site is completely legal and authentic. In fact I was really scared because of some negative reviews here at Trustpilot. The site completely fulfills its mission and provides the advertised service - it sells vouchers for Japan Rail Passes, foreigners are supposed to exchange for the real ones, when they arrive in Japan. This is a standard procedure for non-Japanese residents. I bought 2 vouchers on May 17th. The next day I was informed they were handed to FedEx. On May 18th I received them in my mailbox. So... no problems. Everything was exceptional. Besides that... the page is full of useful and informative articles. Highly reccomend.

JPAt best poorly run and disingenuous At best a poorly run and disingenuous company. Claimed to ship the pass in 2 business days, while in reality it took 8 and therefore did not reach me before my trip. At which point they say the only recourse is to buy another ticket and after the trip refund the previous one, without mentioning that they only refund 85%. My traveling companion purchased his jr pass from another company and had it arrive within 2 business days with no issues

GBThe JR Pass is exceptionally not worth… The JR Pass is exceptionally not worth it. Besides not actually being much (if at all) of a savings, the process to get it is asinine, inefficient and overly complicated. Good luck trying to pick it up in Japan, too - be prepared for lines that are 2 hours or longer, worse when they are short staffed (which they often are). There are multiple JR offices/counters at each train station and each offer partial services but will mostly just send you somewhere else for what you actually need. If you ever do finally get through to the correct counter, don’t expect any help from their rude staff. Dealing with JR Pass was the absolute worst part of our experience in Japan and I highly encourage you to avoid it at all costs.

GBCorrection, jrailpass.com does not offer Meet&Greet service I had written a bad review about the Greet&Meet service, it turns out that this service is not offered by jrailpass.com but by jrpass.com which presents itself as the official site for the Japan Rail Pass. So, I stand corrected as in fact railpass.com does not offer this service.

GBWorst experience in my life Worst experience in my life! My husband paid 2000 usd for two passes for 14 days. For 2000 usd you would expect some level of service, instead we got more headache! First you have to queue to get them at the airport. Second when you get toTokyo station, you queue again to exchange them for actual ticket. Customer support rep did not even bother checking we are first class. Next available train was in 7h….no explanation, all signes in Japanese, good luck finding the place you are looking for. My suggestion - save your money and queue once!
