        "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Tokyo?",
        "answer": "From Narita Airport, the fastest and most popular option is the Narita Express (N'EX) train, which reaches Tokyo Station in about 55–60 minutes for ¥2,870 one-way. The Keisei Skyliner offers a similarly quick rail alternative to Ueno. Limousine buses serve many central districts and hotels, while taxis are available but very expensive for the 60–70 km journey. Ride‑share services are limited under Japanese regulations, and car rentals are an option at the airport but less practical for city‑center trips. Most travelers use the N'EX or Skyliner trains for their speed, frequency, and comfort.",
