* Riding Nozomi and Mizuho Shinkansen bullet trains:
The Japan Rail Pass does not include rides on the Nozomi and Mizuho bullet trains. To use these trains, JR Pass holders would need to pay full fare.
JR Pass holders can ride the Shinkansen Hikari bullet train instead. It reaches the same speed as Nozomi and Mizuho trains - 300 km/h (190 mph). The only difference is that the Hikari Shinkansen train makes more stops before reaching its final destination.
