Day Trip Transfer
Tokyo to Izu Private Transfer
Tokyo ↔ Izu · Flat Rate ¥75,000 · All-Inclusive
Overview
The Izu Peninsula is Japan's hot-spring coastline — bamboo-lined onsen towns like Shuzenji, dramatic sea cliffs along the Jogasaki Coast, and early cherry blossoms at Kawazu — yet reaching it by train usually means a transfer at Mishima or Atami. Octoshell's private Tokyo-to-Izu transfer takes you door-to-door in a luxury Toyota Alphard at a flat ¥75,000, highway and parking included.

About This Service
The journey from central Tokyo to the Izu Peninsula covers approximately 130 km, via the Tomei Expressway and the Izu-chuo Road, taking roughly 2 to 2.5 hours depending on traffic and destination. By private chauffeur, there is no changing trains at Mishima, no juggling suitcases on a platform at Atami, and no fixed departure time to plan your day around.
Shuzenji, with its bamboo grove path and centuries-old Shuzen-ji temple, is the most requested destination, but Octoshell's flat rate also covers Izu-Nagaoka, Atami, and Ito — all within the same ¥75,000. Guests visiting during February and March often request a detour through Kawazu to see Japan's earliest-blooming cherry trees, weeks ahead of Tokyo's own season.
Many travelers combine Izu with a stop at the Jogasaki Coast for its dramatic volcanic cliffs and suspension bridge, or Izu Kogen for its glass and craft museums. Octoshell's itinerary is entirely flexible — request a scenic coastal detour or a short shopping stop, all within the flat rate as long as the total journey remains reasonable.
For guests staying at a ryokan with private hot-spring baths, the Alphard's spacious rear cargo comfortably handles yukata bags, onsen towels, and luggage for multi-night stays. The return journey from Izu to Tokyo is available at the same flat rate, including seamless connections to Haneda or Narita for an early-morning departure.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
01How much is a private car from Tokyo to Izu?
Octoshell charges a flat rate of ¥75,000 for the Tokyo to Izu transfer in a Toyota Alphard (up to 5 passengers), covering Shuzenji, Izu-Nagaoka, Atami, and Ito. All highway tolls and parking are included. A Toyota Hiace for larger groups is available at approximately 10–15% more.
02How long does the Tokyo to Izu drive take?
Approximately 2 to 2.5 hours under normal traffic conditions via the Tomei Expressway and Izu-chuo Road, depending on the exact destination within the peninsula. Allow extra time during peak weekends, Golden Week, or the Kawazu cherry blossom season in February.
03Does the flat rate cover all of the Izu Peninsula?
The ¥75,000 flat rate covers Shuzenji, Izu-Nagaoka, Atami, and Ito. Destinations further south on the peninsula, such as Shimoda, may carry a modest additional charge due to the longer distance — this will always be confirmed and agreed before your booking is finalized.
04Can I visit the Kawazu cherry blossoms on the way?
Yes. Kawazu is famous for cherry blossoms that bloom as early as late January, weeks before Tokyo. A detour to Kawazu can be arranged within your itinerary — please mention it when booking so your chauffeur can plan the route accordingly.
05Does the Izu transfer include the return journey?
The ¥75,000 flat rate covers a single journey (one way). The return journey from Izu to Tokyo is the same ¥75,000 and can be booked separately or as a round trip.
