The fastest and most direct method to travel from Shin-Fuji Station to Shizuoka Station is to use the Shinkansen (bullet train) on the Tokaido Shinkansen line. "Kodama" type trains are those that serve Shin-Fuji and Shizuoka. We recommend this option for its efficiency.
A longer and less direct alternative is to take a local bus from Shin-Fuji Station to Fuji Station (JR Tokaido local line), and then take a local train to Shizuoka. This option is generally chosen for budgetary reasons or if the Japan Rail Pass does not cover the specific Shinkansen.

The cost of a Shinkansen ticket between Shin-Fuji and Shizuoka varies slightly. An unreserved seat (jiyu-seki) typically costs around 1,600 yen. For a reserved seat (shitei-seki), the price is approximately 2,100 yen. These fares are indicative and may be subject to slight variations. Japan Rail Pass holders can use Kodama trains for this journey at no additional cost, but will often need to choose an unreserved seat if they do not make a prior reservation.

The Shinkansen journey between Shin-Fuji Station and Shizuoka Station is short. It takes approximately 15 minutes with a Kodama train. This short travel time is made possible by the high speed of the Shinkansen and the efficiency of Japan's railway network, renowned for its punctuality.

There is no direct and fast bus service connecting Shin-Fuji Station to Shizuoka Station that would be competitive in terms of time compared to the Shinkansen. Shin-Fuji Station is primarily served by local buses that connect to Fuji Station (JR Tokaido local line) or other local points of interest. For inter-city travel to Shizuoka, we recommend using the Shinkansen due to its speed and reliability.
