From Sannomiya Bus Terminal next to JR Sannomiya Station, take the Sanyo Shinkansen Shin-Kobe Station, pass through the Shin-Kobe Tunnel, and finish at Arima Onsen. It is operated jointly with the Shinki Bus, but is on the Hankyu Bus. The Shin-Kobe tunnel is 7.9 km, so it has a great impact as a route bus.

There is Arima Express operated by WEST JAPAN JR BUS COMPANY as a competitor, which is a high-decker bus that goes directly using the Hanshin Expressway Kita-Kobe Line, which is convenient for sightseeing. However, the fare is 780 yen, and there is a slight difference from 700 yen for the route bus, and for Arima Express from Shin-Kobe Station via Sannomiya Bus Terminal, there is a difference with the route bus from Sannomiya Bus Terminal.

There is also a route through the Kobe Electric Railway and the municipal subway as a railway, but the fares are high, and it seems that the locals are mainly using the cheapest route bus. However, since tourists are dispersed appropriately, it will not be disturbed by congestion.
