take overnight coach, save hotel + time + $$$

the price for overnight bus is almost same as renting an apartment for 1 night (per person, that is...)

if don't have JR pass then it's very affordable, but if traveling to more than 1 place (e.g. Osaka - Kyoto - Osaka - Tokyo - Osaka) just can't beat JR pass.

personally, i can't sleep on a moving vehicle, so overnight bus is not for me.

Sifu, a question.. from Kiyomizu Gojo station to Daikokucho station

Kindly check hyperdia and see Route 3 (¥630).. i notice that we have to ride Keihan Main Line Sub-Exp. and Keihan Main Line Ltd. Exp.
I got a bit confuse here. We will use ICOCA card and from the website, Keihan line is supported but we need to buy a separate limited express ticket... Does the price of ¥400 include that? or is it just the base fare?

luxury coach is comfortable as the seat is wider and can lean further and less shake (RC is correct)

Found this while searching for a route on Hyperdia. May I know what does "Commuting ticket" mean? For the statement above does that mean that the total amount that I need to pay for the journey is 1,560 yen, or are there any hidden charges?

Going for a 10 days trip to Japan but haven't figured out the itinerary yet. I have Kyoto and Tokyo in mind but thinking of I can stretch and maximise my 7 days JR pass. I have been to Osaka so that is out of the equation.

I will be flying to Osaka (Kansai) airport and returning from Tokyo (Haneda)  airport. So my first stop will be Kyoto and my final stop before flying home will be Tokyo.

I am planning the first 3 nights in Kyoto.

Thinking of where else to go in between before heading to Tokyo. Nara? Kobe?

I have been to Lake Kawaguchiko previously too.

Are places like Nara, Kobe or Chiba worth mentioning?

Nara and Kobe within Kansai region... but both are opposite direction. Nara for temples, Kobe well for Wagyu?

And for Tokyo Met. Area and Kanto, you got so many places to visit rather than Chiba.

Kobe at Japan got most western culture building. During 1880 Westerner coming to Japan, They landed at Hiroshima & Kobe. But all administration buiding , HQ all build at Kobe.
Today Kobe got most western food & cake restaurant.

Chiba was worth to Visit if got MotorShow or Gameshow exhibition.
