By bus

The cheapest option for travel between Ise and Tokyo is the overnight bus operated by Sanco, (Japanese only). It's a long trip and the comfort level is possibly below an economy class air flight but at �7850 (return trip �14130) it's around half the price of the shinkansen and train option.
