Shinshu Campaign Executive Committee

NEXCO EAST (Head Office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President and Chief Executive Officer: Fumihiko Yuki) and NEXCO CENTRAL (Head Office: Naka-ku, Nagoya City; President and Chief Executive Officer, President and CEO: Shunji Komuro) are implementing the Shinshu Campaign. In cooperation with the committee (chairman: Shuichi Abe, Governor of Nagano Prefecture), from April 1, 2024 (Monday), we will offer a special discount exclusively for ETC vehicles that will allow you to freely ride on and off Expressway in Nagano Prefecture for a fixed price. Shinshu Tour Free Pass will be on sale.
This free pass is jointly provided by NEXCO EAST and NEXCO CENTRAL every year with the aim of promoting tourism in Nagano Prefecture and promoting the use of Expressway, so that you can fully enjoy the attractive Shinshu area such as Kurumayama Sky Terrace and Tsugaike Nature Park. We are planning.
We offer three plans to suit each customer: a ``Metropolitan Area Departure Plan,'' ``Nagoya Departure Plan,'' and a ``Sightseeing Plan.'' All plans include discounts on admission fees to tourist facilities in Nagano Prefecture. In addition to these benefits, if you fill out a survey after using the service, you will be entered into a lottery to win wonderful gifts such as Nagano Prefecture PR character "Arkuma" goods.
Please take this opportunity to use the "Shinshu Tour Free Pass" and enjoy a trip to Shinshu full of charm at a great value.
