Best transportation from Narita Airport to Nikko?

We are arriving at Narita Airport and want to get to Nikko. What is the least complicated way to get there? I was told to use the Tobu railway, yet it seems to be originating from Asakusa? Help!

1. Use the Kintetsu Bus. Cheap and convenient.
2. Keisei line is departing from Narita to Ueno. 1, Take Keisei line to Ueno (final station). 2, Take subway Ginza line to Asakusa.(also final) 3, Take any of Tobu Isezaki line train to Nikko (detail below). http://www.tobu.co.jp/foreign/timetable.html This is less complicated route because you can take every train to its final station.
3. From Narita to Nikko takes anywhere from 3 hours and 20 minutes to 4 1/2 hours, depending on what time you depart Narita. The best way is to go to Ueno, then take the Shinkansen to Utsunomiya, and the local train from there. The fewest number of transfers I could find is 3.
