finally... finish read all thread !!

me going to Japan this 23rd for the first time... flying in to KIX and flying out from Haneda
Route -
Stay Osaka 3 days 2 night... Osaka and Kyoto
Move to Nagoya for 3 days and 2 night .. but have to travel back to Kobe on the 28th due to some business...
Move To Tokyo for the last few days..

at first plan not to bought JR but finally give up after so many calculation ... so end up with 7 days JR ticket and 3 days Kansai Thru Pass..


after sooo many reading researching, tumblr-blog-ig hopping, still not so confident.. hahaha...

anyone flying in this 23rd via AAX?

kansai area i use surotto that cover my first three days there

next seven days use JR pass if not using JR pass

Osaka to nagoya = 5830yen
Nagoya to Kobe = 7340yen
Kobe to Nagoya = 7340yen (travel from friend house in nagoya)
Nagoya to Tokyo = 10360yen
Total = 30870yen

which is more or less the same not using but I took JR pass for that side visit I might discover when I'm there and also the ticket to cover from shin station to places of interest.


anyway, thank you for the calculation..

I am no sifoo.. but throughout reading and researching I found osaka amazing pass is quite good offer.. come in 1 day or 2 days passes...(note expiring in April 2015 not sure if it will be extended)

a week in osaka, maybe u want to extend to 1 week around kansai... so kansai through pass could get you to any bus or train which are not JR

((another note: never been there yet... maybe other sifoo could correct me))

print out that word for reference.. haha.. btw. tq for info about the OAP.. luckily cancel plan to buy that and stick to Kansai Thru Pass..

back from japan yesterday...

itinerary is just a plan... if u travelling with 1 infant and 1 toddler... however, manage to cover 75% of targeted place to visit and manage to catch a few place with nice sakura flower blooming in nagoya, kyoto and tokyo...


can't wait for next trip already...

muslim travelling to japan won't have too much problem with food actually... unless u can't eat japanese food..

my regret is did not repeat my visit to muzashi sushi in kyoto.. nice place, friendly sushi chef, great food! and not too crowded..

100 yen per plate..

try airbnb... lots of houses nearby there.. i oso arrived around ur time and the house owner come and pick us up (with cost of coz)

but that is because i came with family got baby and toddler.. so it is not right to stay around in the airport that long..

it seems like people around me going to hokkaido...

maybe i should start study on hokkaido.. altho next J-trip need major saving recovery..

hahaha..

pay the penalty before you can open the locker...

actually i agree with RegentCid..

i just spend 10 days for Osaka(3days),Kyoto(2days),Kobe(1day),Nagoya(1day),Tokyo(3days).
not enuff time.. even very very selective tour..
mind u, i did not go to USJ or Disney at all.


specially in Kyoto since need to take bus to attraction places, most of the bus is very crowded...(maybe timing was wrong).. so the timing already lari so much..

so now, need to save money to redo Kansai Properly...



-lesson learnt from my trip there.. i could save a lot if I skip the JR passes and focus on Kansai alone.. that place is huge and lots of places to visit for a 10 days tour. Kansai Thru Pass FTW!

jus sharing.. so u can have more headache deciding... hahah
