Getting into Narita city is simple and fast and cheap !!! Once you exist the customs area at Narita Airport you go down stairs and follow the signs or ask for the track number at the information desk. The employee's there speak excellent English. It's basically the second stop on the train. Once there you exist the station walk towards the 1st street and turn right towards the McDonald's (YOU CAN'T MISS IT ) and from there just follow the signs to the temple's. It takes about 20 minutes to get to the temples. The cost of the train is 250 yen each way !!! It takes about 15 minutes to get there from the airport.

The Airport Limousine Bus, is probably the most convenient way to get to the city centre.
You'll find the ticket desk right in front of you as you enter arrivals, and the bus stops are then located immediately outside each terminal building.
Buses leave for Tokyo Station, Shinjuku Station, Disneyland and major hotels.
They depart every 15 minutes.
A ONE WAY ticket costs 3000 yen, and depending on traffic, expected journey time is about 1 1/2 hour...

Subway/ocal train is the cheap and fast way to get to Narita city from the airport. The station is in the middle of town and the first stop from the airport which makes it a 10 min ride or so.
The bullet train station or JR rail line is a short walk from the Narita station if you want to go to Tokyo.

If time is not of the essence, then you can get a local train from Ueno in Tokyo to Narita airport for 1000 yen.
This stops at places like Nippori, Aoto, Funabashi, Yachiyodai and Narita along the way.
It's convenient if you want to go from the airport to Narita city for a look around as well.

Narita's Circle Bus serves all the hotels in Narita and the urban areas of the town like Naritasan Temple, Aeon shopping complex and the Narita JR station (doesn't pass by Narita Keisei station). They have 2 independent schedules A and B. They run in reverse to each other and you will find that to get to a place you will need to hop on the bus that will get you there in the shortest time, instead of going the long way of the loop. At first you will find the schedule confusing.
You can get hold of their schedule on paper at your local hotel in Narita.
The rate is flat - 200yen. If you have no change, the bus driver will give it back to you the excess.

You can also use the Keisei Skyliner. It is slightly cheaper (only 1,920 yen) and it takes just 51 minutes BUT they service ONLY runs as far as Keisei Nippori and Keisei Ueno Stations, if you're not staying in that part of town, you'll probably have to change trains at least once more before reaching your final destination...
Trains depart every 40 minutes from both terminals. The best place to change onto the JR Yamanote Line is Nippori.
Don't attempt to change at Ueno - there's far too much walking involved
