When using a direct Nozomi train along the Tokaido/Sanyo Shinkansen, the entire journey takes about 7 hours. The one way fare is around 26,000 to 28,000 yen. Japan Rail Pass holders need to pay a supplement fee on Nozomi trains, but the pass fully covers the trip if done by Hikari and Sakura trains, although it will require about 8 hours and an additional transfer of trains at Shin-Osaka Station.

Getting around
Nagasaki is most easily navigated by tram and on foot. The city center with most major tourist attractions is situated about one kilometer (or five minutes by tram) southeast of Nagasaki Station. Among the major sights, only the Peace Park is not centrally located, several kilometers (or ten minutes by tram) north of Nagasaki Station in the Urakami district.
Trams
Nagasaki is served by four tram lines. Operated by Nagasaki Electric Tramway, the tram lines provide easy access to most of the city's main attractions and run approximately every 5-8 minutes from 6:00 to 23:00.
Enter the tram through the rear door and exit through the front door. Pay the driver when exiting. One ride costs a flat 140 yen per ride regardless of how far you travel. A 1-day pass for unlimited use of trams on one calendar day is available for 600 yen.
The tram network is designed in a way in which it is possible to reach almost any tram stop from any other tram stop without the need of a transfer.
Only at the Shinchi-Chinatown and Shiminkaikan tram stops, it is sometimes necessary to transfer between different lines. To do so without paying extra for the second ride, it is necessary to pay the fare with an IC card (such as Suica, Icoca or Nimoca) within 30 minutes of alighting and boarding. Paper transfer tickets were abolished in April 2021.
Buses
Nagasaki is also served by a network of city buses, operated by Nagasaki Bus. However, the average visitor is unlikely to use buses, except maybe for accessing Mount Inasa.
Nagasaki Airport
Nagasaki Airport is located about 30 kilometers northeast of the city center. The one way journey from the airport to Nagasaki Station by bus takes 45 minutes and costs 1200 yen. There are departures every twenty minutes.
