Tokyo is served by two major airports: Haneda Airport (HND) and Narita Airport (NRT). Understanding the differences between these airports and your transportation options is crucial for a smooth arrival or departure. Driver Japan provides reliable airport transfer service to and from both airports using our fleet of luxury vehicles.

Haneda Airport (HND) is Tokyo's primary domestic airport and the closer of the two to central Tokyo, located about 15-30 minutes from major areas like Shibuya, Shinjuku, and Ginza. It's also increasingly handling international flights, making it a popular choice for many travelers.

Our premium airport transfer service from Haneda ensures you reach your destination quickly. With professional chauffeurs who monitor your flight status, complimentary waiting time, and our fleet of Mercedes-Benz and Toyota Alphard vehicles, your arrival experience is seamless.

Narita Airport (NRT) is Tokyo's main international airport, located about 60-90 minutes from central Tokyo. While farther away, it handles the majority of international flights. Our chauffeur-driven airport transfers make this longer journey comfortable and stress-free.

When choosing between airports, consider: Haneda is closer and faster to reach via our luxury car service, while Narita typically has more international connections but requires more travel time. Either way, Driver Japan's airport transfer service ensures you travel in comfort.
