TipsLocal tips
City tram Route 5 (bound for JR Matsuyama Station) is the standard option. Even by taxi, traffic lights and congestion can make the journey take as long as the tram (because the tram runs on dedicated track in some sections). Unless you have an exceptionally large amount of luggage, the atmospheric tram is recommended.
