Rail travel from Narita to Tokyo provides direct city-center access and frequent departures compared with airport buses and flights. Airport limousine buses connect to multiple hotels but have longer door-to-door times; flights are not applicable for this short corridor. For predictable journey times and direct station-to-station travel, trains such as the Narita Express are generally the preferred option.
