A new direct bus ticket package is set to enhance travel convenience for anime enthusiasts journeying from Kyoto to the “NARUTO&BORUTO Shinobi-Zato” attraction on Awaji Island. Launching on July 1, 2026, this package combines a round-trip highway bus service from Kyoto Station to Awaji I.C. with admission to the famed ninja-themed park. This initiative aims to simplify the travel experience for both local and international tourists by eliminating the need for transfers, making it an ideal option for a day trip.
The route from Kyoto to Awaji Island spans approximately 90 minutes, providing passengers with picturesque views of scenic bridges and the sea en route to the anime park. Once there, visitors can immerse themselves in the “Heaven’s Scroll (Ten no Maki)” three-dimensional maze and partake in the “Earth Scroll (Chi no Maki)” mission rally. These attractions are part of the park’s offerings designed to bring the world of the beloved ninja anime series to life.
Available for weekday travel only, excluding major holiday periods, the bus package is priced at 8,200 yen for adults and 4,250 yen for children, inclusive of taxes. Tickets can be purchased through online platforms, with a required ticket exchange at the Kyoto Bus Ticket Center. This initiative is expected to enhance accessibility to the park for anime fans and tourists, especially those seeking a unique summer travel experience in Japan.
Located within Nijigen no Mori, “NARUTO&BORUTO Shinobi-Zato” offers an immersive experience inspired by the Hidden Leaf Village from the anime series. The park features character displays, training exercises, and interactive activities that fans of the franchise will find captivating. The new direct bus service from Kyoto is anticipated to increase visitor numbers, drawing more anime aficionados to explore the attractions nestled in Awaji Island’s natural setting.
Nijigen no Mori itself is renowned for its attractions based on popular Japanese entertainment franchises, blending the cultural essence of Japanese anime with engaging outdoor experiences. With the introduction of the direct bus service from Kyoto, visitors will find it easier to access these unique attractions, further cementing Awaji Island as a must-visit destination for anime lovers around the world.
