Guys. i am going to Kyoto & Osaka(few days each location) in End March. I had searched the train information from Kansai airport to Kyoto then from kyoto to Osaka and lastly back to Kansai airport.
According japan-guide.com, the recommendation is use JR Haruka express and there is option of Icoca prepaid card for tourist. Should i buy this card or buy the single trip train ticket for traveling in Kyoto & Osaka?

QUOTE(ilikehandphones @ Jan 7 2015, 05:10 PM) icoca + haruka is the best deal u can get..if ur going to and back from kansai airport..icoca card can be used to travel between Kyoto - Nara and all other JR stations within Kansai..when i was there in november last year...there seem to be a notice in kyoto bus that they are gonna implement icoca for buses also..previously gotta use coin all the way..hope this info help QUOTE(RegentCid @ Jan 7 2015, 05:44 PM) Icoca not only JR train. It can used on subway and private line. Icoca card can used in whole Japan. Not just kansai area. Thanks guys for the info. At least i make clear the transportation for my trip. Next, it's time to look for accommodation.
