Only Zushi- and Kurihama-bound rapids reach Kamakura; Ofuna-bound rapids stop one station short, and Tokyo- and Chiba-bound trains leave the Yokosuka Line entirely.

What you buy for NRT T1 → YOKOHAMA · All seats reserved

  • Train ticket (base fare) · ¥2,090
  • Reserved limited express charge, riding as far as Yokohama or Ofuna · ¥2,390

These are bought as separate tickets — there is no single combined price published for this leg.

JR sells these two as one through ticket, so the fare shown for this leg already covers both. The limited express charge depends on how far you ride the Narita Express: JPY2,390 as far as Yokohama, Totsuka or Ofuna, against JPY1,730 if you leave it at Tokyo and continue on local trains. Every car is reserved.

Both trains use platform 9 at Yokohama, so the change is a few steps rather than a walk. Every Narita Express car is reserved - buy the limited express ticket before you board. At Yokohama, take a Kurihama-, Zushi- or Kamakura-bound train; Ofuna-bound trains stop one station short of Kamakura.
