NearMe Is a Convenient Way to Get to Narita Airport

Besides trains, buses, and taxis, “NearMe” (official website) is drawing attention as a new way to get to Narita Airport.

NearMe is a service that lets you use larger vehicles, such as the Hiace or Alphard, as a shared ride-hailing taxi.

It’s a great option if you’re traveling from within Tokyo’s 23 wards and considering a pre-flight stay near Narita Airport.

Since it’s a door-to-airport shuttle service available 24 hours a day, there’s no need for a pre-flight stay or to kill time at the airport until morning. It’s also cheaper than staying at a hotel.

While more affordable than a taxi, it still offers the same door-to-door convenience as a taxi. You won’t need to walk with heavy luggage, which is a huge plus. Since it also runs late at night and early in the morning, you don’t need to worry about operating hours or the number of departures the way you would with trains or buses.

Rates are as follows. The first suitcase is free, and an additional fee of ¥1,000 applies per bag from the second suitcase onward.

AreaAdult Fare/PersonAirport Flat-Rate Taxi (Reference Price) *Some are metered fares
Funabashi CityFrom ¥4,980¥14,600–¥17,500

As a reference, taking a Narita Airport flat-rate taxi from Shinjuku Ward costs ¥25,000. On top of that, expressway tolls add roughly ¥3,700, bringing the total to ¥28,700.

With NearMe, there are no expressway tolls to pay, and fares start from ¥5,980 per person — less than a quarter of the taxi fare — so you can enjoy a comfortable door-to-door service at a very reasonable price.

On the official website, you can enter your pickup location, date and time, number of passengers, and number of bags to check the fare, travel time, and route. Be sure to take a look.
