亀清旅館にお越しになるお客様にいつもどこを寄ってきたかと聞きますが、松本城はやはり、人気があります。電車で松本まで来た方はお城を見てからこの便利なぽっかぽか号のバスで気楽で来れます。

と言いながら、1時間50分で3500円で1日に一本だけとは電車と比較したらどうかなと。松本ー姨捨は大体1時間に一本でたった50分と740円。姨捨駅からは亀清の送迎。ぽっかぽか号ちゃんは難しいかも。もう一つの新しいバスはまだ利点がある。

This year there are 2 new busses servicing Togura Kamiyamada Onsen. The first is the Pokka Poka Bus from Matsumoto Station.

From Matsumoto:
Depart from the Station's Alps Entrance 13:35, stop at Matsumoto Castle, route via Kakeyu and Bessho Onsens, arrive Togura Kamiyamada Onsen at 15:25.

Return:
Depart Togura Kamiyamada Onsen 9:50, route via Bessho and Kakeyu Onsens, stop at Matsumoto Castle, arrive the station at 11:40.

Price: 3500 yen 1-way, 6500 yen round trip.

Bus runs daily from July 20th 2013 to April 31st 2014 (except during the New Years holiday).

For reservations, call Shinshu Kanko Bus 026-272-8100 minimum 2 days in advance. Minimum 2 people.

I always ask our guests here at Kamesei Ryokan where they did their sightseeing on the way here, and Matsumoto Castle is definitely one of the more popular places. So for guests that take the train to Matsumoto, this Pokka Poka Bus would be a convenient way to come to our onsen town, Togura-Kamiyamada.

However, to be honest, with only 1 run a day, and it taking nearly 2 hours and costing 3500 yen, I can't help but think the train would be a better option. There is a local train from Matsumoto Station to Obasute Station that runs basically once an hour, takes only 50 minutes and costs only 740 yen. And we here at Kamesei Ryokan gladly provide pick-up at Obasute Station. Me thinks this Pokka Poka Bus is going to be a difficult sell. So let's look at the 2nd bus.
