ok sifu! thanks for the recommendation!!
what bout my itinerary in osaka? will too rush o not? haha, this gona be my first time to Japan

btw, i googled online and found that Kansai Area Pass by taking "Kansai-airport Express HARUKA" can only bring me to shin-osaka? is that true? any other place in osaka tht KAP can bring me to? such as taking rapid services from KIX to namba station?

If i only buy Kansai Thru Pass, what is the best way to go to Kyoto?

Shinsaibaishi to Yodoyabashi to Sanjo using Keihan Main Line ?

thanks sifu for the reply

i used hyperdia but it only tell me the station to go but did not tell wad ticket i can use. And i go back to KTP route maps and i didnt found any route as stated in hyperdia. Do u mean using Tokaido-Sanyo Line? tht 1 need to buy separate ticket right? cannot use KTP right? thanks sifu

i remember RC or mich saying tht Osaka amazing pass is nt amazing at all and is not worth at all? hahahaha

to make it simple, at the moment my itinerary will be for KTP pass.. not sure worth o not since i not yet start doing research on other pass, i choose KTP pass in the first place coz last few version of "Travel to Japan" thread all recommend KTP

3rd day still dono wan to add what in.. nid to draft something out first to motivate myself to continue

ok, i will do the comparison sifu! thanks for the info.. reli helpful!! thumbs up!

in Osaka and Kyoto, how do i know when to reserve my seats and which train I need to reserve seats? or only Shinkansen that I have to reserve seat for?

Thanks in advance!

opss, tht link has been posted before if not mistaken, paiseh .. didnt bookmark it last time

seems like if im using kansai thru pass, most of the train are local category right? so I don have to make seat reservation even when travel from osaka to kyoto (Yodoyabashi - Gion-shijo) using KTP right (according to hyperdia, keihan line no seat reservation). I only have to reserve seats when travel from kyoto to tokyo using Shinkasen.

hahaha, i don mind standing, but from osaka to kyoto & kyoto to tokyo cannot stand, later kaki patah

oo, i travel early march, osaka to kyoto i take "Keihan Main Line Ltd. Exp. " using kansai thru pass need 51minutes

done my research for 4days in osaka & kyoto transport, conclusion is icoca is a better choice than KTP, tokyo will use suica

yea, i did, KTP only discount a little bit only
RC, do u know where to find this in Osaka, Kyoto or maybe Tokyo, looks delicious, wanted to try it, they use fresh octopus then press it
I only know Enoshima got this but wonder osaka kyoto or tokyo got o not.
