Tokyo to Yokohama Map

Plan your trip from Tokyo to Yokohama using JR lines such as the Tokaido and Keihin-Tohoku lines and private operators like Tokyu. The route passes key stations including Shinagawa, Kawasaki, and Yokohama. Travel planners should note interchange stations, transfer times, and service patterns when mapping a trip across Japan's rail transport network.

Rail vs Bus vs Plane

Rail services on JR and private lines provide frequent city-center to city-center connections between Tokyo and Yokohama, minimizing transfer time compared with buses or flights. Buses follow longer road routes and have longer journey durations; flights are not practical for this short corridor due to airport transfers and check-in. For door-to-door travel between Tokyo and Yokohama, trains offer the most direct option with frequent departures.
