Yokosuka to Tokyo

[VWGuam]

I'll be in Yokosuka in early November for a visit. I'll be moving there next year. Does anyone have a safe route from Yoko to Tokyo and back for a group of 3-4 riders.

Route 16 then 15 to Shinagawa; I`ve done this route. Where in Tokyo do you wish to go?

 

[VWGuam]

We will be staying in a hotel near the Hiroo station.

Yoko-Tokyo

You can cross over to Route 1 from either route 16 or 15. Route 1 passes a little closer to Hiroo and the New Sanno.

Phil,

How far in distance would a round-trip from Yokosuka to Tokyo entail?

Yoko-Tokyo

Distance isn't so much the issue, but traffic and traffic lights. You should be able to go from Yokosuka to Tokyo in under three hours; it took me 1.5 hours to travel from my house in Yokohama to Shinagawa.

Yoko-Tokyo distance is perhaps 60kms at most.

Thanks for the info. We are going to use that route. We are trying to find a good road map online. Found a pretty good site, wikamapia?
Thanks.

When you get here, go to a Japanese bookstore and get a Max Mapple; that`s what I use and it hasn`t let me down yet.
