USJ Ticket if you buy in malaysia for sure it will be expensive than buy in theme park on that day because they got some processing fee. and express pass is a must, iinm express pass only can get on that day you go and buy at gate. The crowd at the gate actually not that crowded during my visit last tuesday. I hope this will help you choose which ride to use express pass if is your first visit. I found out that super popular ride like The Flying Dinosaur, Minion Ride, Final Fantasy, The Harry Potter 4K3D and Hollywood Dream these 5 rides normal queue or single queue need 2 hours atleast. Flying Dinosour and The Harry Potter 4K3D is really nice. Minion ok ok la... Final Fantasy didnt try but my friend said very excited need to wear VR 1. Hollywood Dream no ride but look fun. The express pass will let you choose 1 of the 2 rides on some rides but actually you can go both like my visit. Spider Man Ride or Jurasic Park Ride. Spiderman normal queue 1 hour and single queue 40 mins and for Jurasic Park normal queue 1 hour and single queue 5 mins. So go for jurasic park single queue then use the express pass for spiderman ride. Then those ride like Terminator and Backdraft actually no need express pass because the hall accomadate around 50 ppl++ sekali masuk so the queue clear quite fast. JAWS and Waterworld Closed during my visit. IF you go for the 4 rides express pass you still can ride other popular rides not in your express list. just wait everning a bit like after 5pm or 6pm. normally the rides waiting time reduce to less than 1 hour. but Final Fantasy is so popular there till the queue is still long even when the park want to close liou.

Osaka Amazing Pass is really very the super worth. 2 day pass 3300yen (but i bought from JTB 3600yen.. lol) give you 2 days unlimited train ride except JR train. also free entry for the Tempozan Ferry Wheel (800yen), Osaka Bay Cruise Ship(1300yen), Umeda Sky Building (1000yen), Osaka Castle (600 yen), The Cruise Boat inside the city (Dono how much ady). This few already cover the 3600 yen liou. not yet include others. so this pass really a good deal. Use this pass to get 100 yen off the Kaiyukan Aquarium and also discount on other stuff or restaurant.

Anyway for me the Kaiyukan aquarium a bit boring. its got big aquarium but u basically start on the top floor then u pusing the big aquarium in the middle with whale shark in it and pusing like 4 rounds till the bottom then walk to other section where you can touch sting ray then nothing liou... i personally prefer kyoto aquarium more.

Did you plan to get Kansai Area Pass to go Himeji, Kyoto, Arashiyama and Nara?

have you bought express pass for USJ?

i bought mine but the express pass that i bought have limited time.

for example :

9.30-10 - FF ride
10.30-11 Minion

is this normal?

2. icoca can buy at japan. just go to the information counter. haruka i'm not sure

special design is what design? astro man at train counter. hello kitty at JR counter.

No booking required. Straight go to the counter.

yupp. If u book online than it will post to u or need to take it at the counter?

Asked my friend to get this from osaka...RM90,probably the cheapest i can find

Unlimited

aiyo, I'm confused now..

Just arrived kansai airport...they clear custom really fast. Within an hour can come out already

Potong stim betul.

Sorry i am refering to the below, since i am going peak period and wouldnt it be risky not to buy advance ticket for sagano train.

Near higobashi station...plane arrive about 9.30pm local time....i reach my hotel about 11.30

Do u guys detach all of the tax-free receipts off your passports before reaching KLIA, or would that be too obvious?

One day trip to Kobe, sounds interesting. Join tour or jalan sendiri? I'm still contemplating on the Golden/Silver Pavilion if it's worth the time. My intention is to go there shoot, and that's it. Arashiyama, must go for the shot of the river and the bamboos. Bicycle... I can hardly remember the last time I ride on one, LOL!

Btw luckily didnt buy, i went to ask shops about japan units and apparently no region lock but malaysia and japan electric voltage is different. It might not even work and worst might explode if simply plug in.
