Rail travel on the Shinkansen provides the fastest city-center connection, as Shizuoka lacks a major commercial airport for short-haul flights from Tokyo. Buses are available and offer lower fares, but journey times are significantly longer due to highway traffic. The Shinkansen remains the most time-efficient option for reaching Shizuoka from central Tokyo without the need for lengthy transfers.
