Traveling from Mishima to Aioi, you can choose between the Shinkansen services, specifically the Kodama and Hikari trains. The Hikari Shinkansen runs on this route, with speeds reaching up to 285 km/h (177 mph), completing the journey in approximately 2 hours. The Hikari makes fewer stops compared to the Kodama, which stops at more stations along the route, resulting in a longer travel time of around 3 hours. The Kodama is ideal for those who wish to explore various towns along the way, while the Hikari is suited for quicker travel directly to Aioi with its limited stops. Both services feature comfortable seating options, including Ordinary and Green class offerings.
