Hello Hanataro san,
I plan to travel Nagoya and Takayama in March next year.
From your information, I will reserve seat 1AB so I can store my luggage behind and enjoy the beautiful view.
Thank you very much for this video.

[@HanataroJourney]

Thank you for your comment. I would be very happy if this video was helpful. Please enjoy sightseeing in Takayama.

I cant wait 🤩 nagoya to takayama. Nice video !

[@HanataroJourney]

Thanks for the comment. Hida Takayama is even nicer because it snows in winter.

[@vinyalonde]

I took this train recently from Takayama to Nagoya en route to Tokyo. It was a comfortable ride and I enjoyed the scenic views. Takayama, while a small town, was a very pleasant place to stay.

Hi I plan to take Hida from Takayama to Toyama.. Which seat side is the best for the view?right side or left side?
Thank you.

[@HanataroJourney]

Thank you for your comment. If you sit on the right side, you can see the Tateyama Mountain Range. You can see the autumn leaves from either the left or right seat.

[@goarjky]

Is this better than riding a bus? Price wise, speed and scenery?

[@HanataroJourney]

Thanks for your comment. The bus is cheaper in price, but the limited express Hida is superior in speed, scenery, and comfort.

Hi. Is JR Hokuriku pass cover this Hida Train express route (Toyama to Takayama round trip)? Thx.

[@HanataroJourney]

Thank you for your comment. Unfortunately, Hokuriku Arch Pass is not available.

[@khaikwn]

[@zywind9101]

What are the restrictions on luggage? Or is there a space in the train to place them?

[@HanataroJourney]

Thank you for your comment. Each vehicle has a luggage storage area.

[@jdub2343]

Does it need to be pre-booked just like the Shinkansen?​@@HanataroJourney

[@HanataroJourney]

​@@jdub2343 Thank you for your comment. If you want to be sure you'll be seated, it's best to make a reservation.

[@ipurn2852]

Is Hida express covered by JR Hokuriku Arch Pass?

[@HanataroJourney]

Thank you for your comment. Unfortunately, I don't think it is eligible.

[@EVL-xj5vc]

it is partially covered, need to top up a little.

[@wps5133]

Which car is usually for unreserved seats?

[@HanataroJourney]

Thank you for your comment. On the limited express Hida No. 3 bound for Toyama, cars 9 and 4 (the 2nd and 3rd cars from the front) are non-reserved seats.

[@LK-vh6fo]

Is there a website to pre purchase tickets ?

[@HanataroJourney]

Thank you for your comment. I bought it at a ticket vending machine at the station, so I don't know if you can buy it on the website. Please check the JR Tokai website.😊

[@HanataroJourney]

Thank you for your comment. You can purchase it at any time at the ticket office or ticket vending machine at the station.

[@marlitasoentara7231]
