Arrive and Go: Kumamoto’s Luggage Delivery + 24-Hour Tram Pass Combo Ticket

Dragging a suitcase around Kumamoto’s sightseeing spots is nobody’s idea of a good time. Kumamoto City’s transit authority has a smart solution: a mobile combo ticket that pairs a luggage delivery service (from Kumamoto Station to your accommodation) with a 24-hour unlimited tram pass for just ¥1,000 per set. Drop your bags the moment you arrive, hop on the tram, and start exploring — hands-free.

Why It’s Worth It

The Kumamoto City Tram is the easiest way to get between the city’s main sightseeing areas — from Kumamoto Station through the downtown shopping arcades of Shimotori and Kamitori, all the way to the castle district. A 24-hour pass normally makes sense for anyone doing a full day of sightseeing, and the bundled luggage delivery means you won’t waste the first hour of your visit shuttling bags to a hotel. The added discounts at major attractions — Kumamoto Castle among them — sweeten the deal further.

How to Buy

The ticket is sold as a mobile ticket, so you can purchase it digitally before or after arriving. Head to the official Kumamoto City Tourism Guide page (kumamoto-guide.jp) for the purchase link and the full list of participating discount facilities. The service runs until March 31, 2027, so it covers the autumn and winter travel seasons as well.

If you’re planning a day-trip style visit or arriving with luggage on your way somewhere else in Kyushu, this combo is one of the most practical — and affordable — ways to make the most of your time in the city.
