Used this app extensively as we planned our travel through Japan. Very accurate and informative. Along with Google Maps, had no trouble navigating. I liked that we could filter down searches for JR routes.
You NEED to download this app! I was worried about getting lost in Japan with so many trains and different routes but this app made my life easier!
Before I booked a trip and ordered a JR Pass, people recommended Hyperdia but I found it too cluttered and confusing. Japan Direct was simple and straight to the point.
After many trips in Japan, we had this common issue to find our way around. We came with Japan Direct, a clean interface to help travelers finding the best itinerary to travel around Japan.
Japan Direct is available thanks to Flavier Recouvreur and Benoit Pasquier who have created it on their free time and HYPERDIA for their data.
