When you want to start your travels in Kobe, I took the rapid ferry from KIX to Kobe once, it was cheap, fast and incredibly beautiful to see the bay and Osaka in the distance.
Japan is fabulous And I can say that as lived it there 4 yr , Narita found so loud all the yr round 😮 Nagoya I also had been 20 yrs ago and neat enough alike Kyoto where used to have a Gf . Lolll
I remember when I arrived in Japan in 2015 I had to wait in a line at immigration for 2 hours after my 18 hour flight and as a solo traveler :,,) not a nice time lol
Hello , very nice and informative vid. If taking the limosine bus, can I use the ICOCA card or should I buy a ticket at the desk? What is the rush hour in the afternoon? My flight lands around 4: 00 p.m so Im worried about the rush hour. Appreciate ur help.
Good vid. Thanks abd recommended. Its 2024 and looks like there isnt civid19 test abymore. Also. If do everything online i should not need the physical forms correct?
Hi, thanks for the useful video. I suppose I can get the disembarkation card and customs declaration form from the flight attendance right? sorry my 1st time to japan
By using Visit Japan Web (vjw-lp.digital.go.jp/en/), you can now do these forms online. Alternatively you can get the actual forms at the airport. Most airlines will also distribute the forms on board of the plane, but I am not sure whether all of them do it these days.
Hello, in the visit japan web, is it not required to register for the quarantine QR code? Because I uploaded my vaccination certificate there but it's not changing from red. It says please register but also put a disclaimer that it's not needed
I would stay at the hotel at the airport, then take a train or bus the next morning. Would probably be cheaper than taking a taxi to your destination. If you are a solo traveler there is a capsule hotel, also there is the Nikko hotel Kansai.
Hello, I'm arriving at KIX going to my hotel near Osaka Castle. If I board a train, would I still need to reserve for my luggage to be allowed (24 inch) or that rule only applies to Shinkansen trains. (I have a JR pass, if I board haruka to Osaka, will it need for me to reserve for the luggage to be allowed?)
The rule for oversized luggage applies only to the Tokaido/Sanyo/Kyushu/Nishikyushu Shinkansen. Furthermore, a 24 inch piece of luggage is unlikely considered oversized. The suitcase's three dimension need to add up to over 160 cm (63 inches) to be considered oversized.
The only requirement remaining until May 7, 2023 is a negative result from a COVID-19 test taken within 72 hours prior to departure, except for those who can certify that they have received at least three shots of WHO-approved vaccines.

2800 yen, assuming you refer to a limousine bus rather than an actual limousine. See more details below: www.japan-guide.com/e/e2033.html?aFROM=2033_2158#section_get_there
Hi I am heading over for 22 days. I was going to grab a 21 day JR pass however the challenge is wether to activate for day 1 or day 2. I will be flying into Osaka and flying out of Tokyo… any advice would be very appreciated :-)
Hi! If this can be of any help we have a Japan Rail Pass Calculator on our website: www.japan-guide.com/railpass/ I would recommend inputting the info from your trip and compare the difference if you were to activate it on day 1 or day 2. Hope this helps!

Hello there, I'm going to Osaka in Mid-April. My hotel is in the Chuo-Ward, what's the cheapest way to get there? Great informative video
I am wondering if there is still a airport bus from KIX to Nara area. We have some big luggage cases, try to avoid trains. Thanks.

Hi, can you recommend any rides that can accommodate people who ate entering KIX at 11pm?
I would stay at the hotel at the airport, then take a train or bus the next morning. Would probably be cheaper than taking a taxi to your destination. If you are a solo traveler there is a capsule hotel, also there is the Nikko hotel Kansai.
