Also Recommended: Door-to-Door Travel with Your Luggage via “NearMe”
“I’d really rather take a taxi than use a delivery service, but the fare is just too expensive…”
If that’s you, we recommend the shared-ride taxi service “NearMe.”
Just like a regular taxi, it’s available 24/7 whenever you need it, but at a much more affordable price than a taxi. Since you can bring your large luggage along with you, there’s no hassle of shipping or picking up your bags separately.
Sit back comfortably in a spacious vehicle like a Hiace or Alphard and enjoy easy door-to-door access to Narita Airport. Of course, transport from Narita Airport to your home or hotel is available too.
Rates vary by area, as shown in the table below. Your first suitcase rides free; each additional suitcase costs an extra ¥1,000.
| Route | Adult Fare/Person | Airport Flat-Rate Taxi (reference price) ※some metered fares |
|---|---|---|
| Funabashi City | From ¥4,980 | ¥14,600–¥17,500 |
| Edogawa, Koto, Sumida, Katsushika Wards | From ¥5,980 | ¥19,000–¥21,000 |
| Urayasu, Ichikawa Cities | From ¥5,980 | ¥19,900–¥20,500 |
| Chiyoda, Taito, Chuo, Bunkyo, Adachi, Arakawa Wards | From ¥5,980 | ¥23,000–¥26,000 |
| Ota, Shinagawa, Shibuya, Shinjuku, Toshima, Minato, Meguro, Kita Wards | From ¥5,980 | ¥25,000–¥29,000 |
| Setagaya, Nakano, Suginami, Itabashi, Nerima Wards, Musashino, Mitaka Cities | From ¥6,980 | ¥27,000–¥31,000 |
For reference, taking the Narita Airport flat-rate taxi from Chiyoda Ward (Tokyo Station) costs ¥23,000. Add the ¥3,650 highway toll, and the total comes to ¥26,650.
NearMe, on the other hand, requires no highway toll, and with the best shared-ride discount, the fare starts at just ¥5,980 per person. You get a comfortable door-to-door service for less than a quarter of the taxi fare. On the NearMe official website, you can enter your pickup location, date and time, number of passengers, and number of bags to search for fares, travel times, and routes. Be sure to check it out.
