Echoes

Background

Echoes is the founder and editor of TripWorth. A long-time lover of Japanese culture and slow travel, Echoes has explored Kyoto, Shirakawa-go, Kanazawa, Nagoya and Hakone, and built TripWorth after realizing that official sites list fares but rarely tell travelers which ticket actually saves money. Every fare on TripWorth is checked against official JR and operator sources and re-verified regularly. Echoes also shares Japan transport tips on Reddit as u/CalmEchoes.

What I check

• Official JR Group, JR Central, JR East, JR West and Tokyo Metro fare sources
• Price changes, recorded in the price tracker
• The fare basis described in the fare methodology
