An exciting development awaits anime enthusiasts as a new travel package is set to launch on July 1, 2026, offering a seamless journey from Kyoto to the famous “NARUTO&BORUTO Shinobi-Zato” attraction located at Nijigen no Mori on Awaji Island. This comprehensive package includes a round-trip highway bus service connecting Kyoto Station with Awaji I.C., along with admission to the anime-themed park, all designed to enhance the travel experience by eliminating the hassle of transfers.
The scenic 90-minute bus ride from Kyoto to Awaji Island promises travelers picturesque views of bridges and the sea before reaching the destination near the anime attraction. Upon arrival, visitors can enjoy two major features of the park: the “Heaven’s Scroll (Ten no Maki)” three-dimensional maze and the “Earth Scroll (Chi no Maki)” mission rally, both of which immerse guests in the vibrant world of the popular ninja anime series.
Targeting weekday travelers, the direct bus service excludes major holiday periods, with adult tickets priced at 8,200 yen and children’s tickets at 4,250 yen, inclusive of taxes. Tickets for this package can be purchased online, with a necessary exchange at the Kyoto Bus Ticket Center prior to departure. This initiative aims to cater to both domestic and international visitors eager for a unique day-trip experience.
“NARUTO&BORUTO Shinobi-Zato” features a recreation of the Hidden Leaf Village and offers interactive experiences and character displays that bring the anime to life. Situated within Nijigen no Mori, the attraction is part of a broader theme park that celebrates Japanese anime culture amid a natural island backdrop. This new direct bus service is anticipated to boost accessibility, making it easier for anime fans and tourists to explore this one-of-a-kind destination during their summer travels in Japan.
