Saitama City has five bus services: Saitama City Community Bus, Kokusai Kogyo Bus, Tobu Bus, Seibu Bus,and Asahi Bus. Many of the city’s buses run to and from train stations, so they are a cheap and convenient
way to get to places that are far from any train station. Knowing the bus system will dramatically expand
your mobility.

Getting On & Off the Bus① Check the bus's destination.

② Enter the bus through the middle door (and pay when you get off)
For some buses though, you get on at the front (and pay before you ride)③ When you get on the bus, you take a ticket* that indicates where you got on OR you can touch yourIC card on the IC card reader.      ＊NOTE: Tickets are only provided after the bus leaves its point of origin. If you get on at the point◀ picture①of origin, you simply pay the full amount from that point.
③    Your stop will be announced as the bus approaches it.  
Once it’s announced, push the button shown in picture ①.  

▼ picture②④    Numbers for each stop are shown at the front of the bus
with a price under each (picture ②). The price you pay is
the price under the number of the stop where you got on thebus (if you took a ticket, that number will be on your ticket).  
The price usually starts at 180 yen and increases as you ridefurther.

⑤ When the bus gets to your stop, you put your ticket and your money into the machine at the front(or touch your IC card to the reader on the machine).  

When paying in cash, you use changes, so it's a good idea to have change ready before you ride thebus.Buses take PASMO and Suica IC cards. You can also also add money to your IC card using themachine (in 1,000s of yen).
☆If you have any questions about how to ride, which bus to take or where to get off try asking the bus
driver or other people taking the bus(showing them a note, etc. to explain).
Pick up a copy of the 2015 Saitama City Bus Routes Map at your local ward
office, city hall, citizen's service desk, or community center. It's in Japanese,but it has all of the bus lines and stops, and can be used as a general city
map as well.
