Hi, I will be arriving at Kansai Airport, spend few nights in osaka & kyoto then travel to tokyo and fly off from there. Following are my arrangement for rail pass. Do you think any other ways i can save from my transportation? I dont find any other rail pass that suit my itinerary.

Kansai Airport to Namba Station - buy Nankai Rapid Airport Express Ticket
Train within Osaka and Kyoto - use ICOCA
Osaka to Tokyo - buy JR single way ticket
Train within Tokyo - use SUICA

I am also surveying the best traditional ryokan in either kyoto or hokane.

Am i the only one have trouble choosing the best ryokan? Im looking for traditional ryokan experience with good view (nature). However, there are so many choices online and i dont know which to pick. @@

I brought Panadol into Japan. Also brought other meds like Actal, Imodium, and Loratadine. No issues with their customs.
