Get the bus route map from the web.it's a pdf, print or load to our smartphone
Do note that the routes run either clockwise or counter clockwise
Take the right direction to avoid wasting time
Trains are usually a good idea during peak traffic hours - no jam
*
Peak hour mean morning rush hour or noon after work.
Train also sama...full of people. pack like sardin

Wating the train takes times.
You need Q up at ticket machine ..all the way to staircase....then platform.....then take turn squeeze into train.
waiting Q at station was most boring stuff...

Emm..I was at Japan so many times...I did't see any Refund machine. Only got ticket Vending machine , Top up machine and fare adjust machine.

I always done refund method on JR Office.

From What I know.
Fare Adjust machine was not for refund. It was used on changing ticket fare. Example:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odaky%C5%AB_Odawara_Line
I buy a Ticket from Shinjuku to Shin-Matsuda. But I accidentally over sleep now end up at Odawara Station. So i put this ticket into fare adjust machine then top up money to reach Odawara Station fee.
The machine will print out new ticket show Shinjuku > odawara

Then only can i get pass the Odawara Station gate.

hi.. do you remember which type of seats you took? I'm planning for Tokyo --> Kyoto. But there's a lot of option to choose from. Of course cheaper one would be better but not sure how would it be comparing with our local one.
*
More Expensive sure more comfort. I been try all of them already.

Cheapest was Value. Same as our express bus.
if taking night bus ...best option was Relax. Not so expensive yet the comfort was excellent.
