The Toei Bus One Day Economy Pass costs just 500 yen or choose the Toei Bus One-Day IC Card Pass which can be added to a PASMO card. Another option is the Tokyo One-Day Free Ticket which allows unlimited use of Toei buses, Toei subways, the Toei Streetcar Arakawa Line (Toden), and the Nippori-Toneri Liner, as well as Tokyo Metro and JR East trains including the Yamanote Line within Tokyo's 23 wards for one day. This pass costs 1580 yen.
