Hello, I would just like to thank you for helping me and my family get our way to our destination just now. You helped us get to Kitahama station by showing us where the Sennichimae line is remember? 😁 It was such a nice coincidence bumping into you, hope you'll get more & more subscribers in thr future.
Thank you for this video! My husband and I are flying into KIX in April for 2 nights in Osaka before walking the Kumano Kodo. We expect to be jetlagged upon arrival, so your video helps me feel more confident about getting to Namba Station without too much confusion. I also appreciate your advanced English language skills. I only heard a very few minor errors and see that others have previously offered to review them with you. Please let me know if you'd still like some input on your English, which I'd be happy to offer in gratitude for your videos. Thank you again!
Hello shiba shiba, i liked your detailed instructions on how to reach namba from Kansai airport. I am planning a trip to osaka, namba in november to see mainly the autumn colors of osaka, this video is very helpful. thank you. i subscribed your channel. looking forward to see more videos from you. Best wishes
HI from Canada Shiba! Excellent video.. So informative and helpful! We are going in the Fall of 2024 to Osaka and Kyoto. Your English is great! Keep going!
Thank you for this wonderful and detailed tour. Will be coming to Japan this month of October and I hope this video will help. Thank you for sharing. Greetings from Singapore!
I am glad that you like my video. Although I am not so good at English, I would like many people in the world to know about trains in Japan by speaking in English.
Your videos are so wonderful, thank you for taking the effort to make them. Your English is excellent! My family is travelling from Australia to Osaka in a few weeks and we will definitely use the Nankai Rapi:t to get to our hotel in Namba.
@Shiba-Shiba_TrainsInJapan yeah I'll be going in May, and I land in Kansai airport first and stumbled upon your video. Really good 👍 you did a step by step on how to get around the transit.
Thank you very much for making this video. I have taken the Rapit:B a few times from KIX to Namba. Brought back some good memories of staying in Osaka. I would agree with the feedback from a few of the comments about maybe using less time-lapse and extending the length of the video so we can make out more details. Once again, thank you for giving me such なつくしい feelings!
Thank you for the video, very helpful as I will be taking a day trip into the city from the airport next Monday. This provides me with everything I need to know. Thank you!
@Shiba-shiba / Trains in Japan Yes! I will be visiting in April/May for 2 weeks. Hopefully, the Golden Week crowds won't be too bad. I'm scared the amount of people may make the experience not too enjoyable. Greetings from Florida, USA!
Hi! Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. I hope your trip will be greater. Other videos of mine will help you more because I show many places around Namba in the videos.😄✨
@@Shiba-Shiba_TrainsInJapan hello shiba shiba San, we took the nankai rapid train yesterday and smoothly arrived to Namba station, fast and easy indeed 🥳 Also, thanks for the recommendation and extra info!
Unfortunately, Suica is sold in Tokyo area but you can purchase ICOCA in Kansai area instead of Suica. ICOCA and Suica have the same function. To get ICOCA, please visit the counter that is located on the right in the video below. th-cam.com/video/yWZ-xNuHdNo/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the most helpful... don't worry about your English.. you're going to be great.. by next year planning to see Osaka and Kyoto. Seeing your video helps me a lot.. 🥰
I like your video so much ! I can use it as guide when I go visit Osaka this coming month of May. Thanks🙏 Shiba-Shiba San. Take care and have safe day....
Very good video and your English is good. Just the info I need to get to my hotel in Dotonbori. Where do you think I can find nice and reasonable izakaya around Namba Station, thk you
My pleasure. I will study English more and become a good speaker. How about "Ura Namba," which is in the vicinity of Nankai Namba Station? You can find nice izakaya. osaka-info.jp/en/spot/gastronomy-urananba/ fromjapan.info/nankairailway-topics-five-interesting-local-restaurants-and-bars-in-ura-namba-osaka/ If you have any other questions, please feel free to comment again.
Thank you for your video. It's really helpful as I will be visiting Osaka for the first time and I am planning to take the Nankai express train from KIX Airport to Nampa and then I still need to transfer to another train to get to my Hotel Nikko. If possible, could you help me with instructions on how to connect from Namba station to Hotel Nikko? Is it okay to ride the train with two luggage? I'm going to be there in early October. Thanks a million for all your help 😊
Hi! Thank you for the comment. You can ride the train with two luggage and the train has a large luggage space. See the link below for details. th-cam.com/video/v0gZL1LCn9w/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2x1Fr_Zi93I0WZPM&t=367 After arriving at Namba Station, follow the route from Namba Station to Shinsaibashi Station the video below shows.

@@Shiba-Shiba_TrainsInJapan Hi Shiba. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I greatly appreciate it. I want to know if there's an elevator to get down to the subway when I transfer from Namba to Shinssba as I will be carrying 2 luggage. Thanks again.
@@Shiba-Shiba_TrainsInJapan Thank you, Shiba, for getting back to me so quickly again. I will try taking the Nankai Rapit train from Kansai international airport to Namba and then transfer to the subway to get to my hotel using the elevator as I will be carrying two luggage by myself.
Dear Shiba Shiba, I appreciate all your hard works and helpful youtube clips. 1. In my opinion, they would be more informative if you could please focus on signs/instructions... at every turn, every stairway, platform you used to board the train...a few seconds longer. 2. Also, if I have a JR pass, and I don't want to use Nankai line, how do I get to Namba? Can I use Hakura train to Tenoji station, then transfer to Yamatoji line? If it is correct, is it easy for first time visitors? If you've already had a clip for this route, please send me the link. Thank you very much for everything. Best Regards.
You are very welcome. Your comment will help me make better videos. #1 I attempted to advance videos at a good tempo. However, time to focus on sings and instructions got shorter. I would like to be carfeful about that. #2 It is correct and easy for everyone but JR Namba station is a little far from Nankai Namba station. The video below will help you. th-cam.com/video/MKqkW9FLZGU/w-d-xo.html If you have any other questions, please feel free to make a comment.
Thank you for your comment. I hope you will enjoy your stay in Namba. If you have any questions, please feel free to make a comment. Doh itashimashite.
I will take NANKAI rapi:t train from Kansai airport to Tengachaya next month. Thank you for your information. Initially, I planned to take JR HARUKA Kansai-Airport Express but I changed my mind after watching your video. NANKAI rapi:t train is cute.
Hi, great video! I've watched several of your videos about purchasing tickets from Kansai Airport to Namba Station. I have a question: Why do you sometimes choose the (Limited Express ticket) and other times, like in this video 5:39, you select the (KANKU TOKUWARI Rapid Ticket) for the same journey? Will the ticket prices differ for each option, and I have an ICOCA card, which option should I choose?
Hi! Thank you for your comment. As you have an ICOCA, you should click "Only the Limited Express Ticket" and then tap your IC card at the ticket gate. 1) "Only the Limited Express Ticket" … When you have an IC card and use it as the basic fare. 2) "When the boarding section is the same with your Limited Express Ticket.” ... In case you do not have an IC card and need to purchase both the limited express ticket and the basic fare ticket. 3) "When the boarding section differs from your Limited Express Ticket” … When your trip starts from the station that the limited express does not stop. In case after going to the station that the limited express stops and you take the limited express from that station, you should click this. *"KANKU TOKUWARI Rapid Ticket" is a discount ticket of 2). If you have any other questions, do feel free to comment again.😊
Thank you so much Shiba San for the video, super helpful for our first upcoming trip in May. We are staying at the Hotel Flag Shinsaibashi and will take the Nankai Rapit train to Namba from kansai airport. Because we have two big suitcases, we are thinking of taking a taxi from Namba Station to the hotel. Which exit should we use at the Namba Station? And will there be taxis available around 10 pm? Thank you! We will be watching all your videos to prepare for our trip.😊
Hi! I'm really glad you like my videos. It's good to take a taxi from Nankai Namba Station to the Hotel Flag. After arriving at Nankai Namba Station and getting off the train, head to "3F North Gate" and go through the ticket gate. ( This is "3F North Gate." th-cam.com/video/sFlOWrKLVUc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=rltKJyinrvRBt3tB&t=25 ) You can find an elevator and very long escalators on your left. The elevator or escalator will take you to the 1st floor (ground floor) and there turn left and walk along the Swiss Hotel. Then you can find a taxi stand. maps.app.goo.gl/BEbqSWncAa7nnWw76 Taxis are available 24 hours. If you have any other questions, do feel free to comment again.😊
Hi Shiba-Shiba, this video was extremely helpful. Your English is easily understood although your grammar has a few errors. We are English teachers in the UK and we are travelling to Osaka in January 2023. It would be great to meet you and talk about your English and your videos. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for your video. Would travel in Japan on October. Have few questions, where can we put luggage on the rapi:t? Can we eat inside? Which exit is the easiest with a lugguage? Thank you~
Hi! You can put luggage on the luggage storage in the train car. For details see the link below. th-cam.com/video/v0gZL1LCn9w/w-d-xo.htmlsi=RJaGP8cNDTCO7QCT&t=363 It is OK to eat in the car, but you may want to avoid strong-smelling food. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to comment again.😊
Hi! Thank you for the comment. Yes. There's a luggage space in each Rapi:t train car.

Hi! The ticket for regular seat is 1450 JPY (basic fare 930 JPY, limited express fare 520 JPY). If you have any other questions, feel free to comment again.😄
Great video, very informative! Our hotel is near exit 28/29 of namba station. We are coming from kix and wondering if there's an escalator/ elevator near exit? Or can you recommend an exit, which has one.
Hi! Thank you for the comment. Unfortunately, there’s no elevator or escalator near the 28 and 29 exit. So, please follow the route the video below from 00:00 to 10:30 shows. th-cam.com/video/v0gZL1LCn9w/w-d-xo.html Then you will be in front of Nankai Namba Station. From there follow the route the link below shows. maps.app.goo.gl/wFxhZDqoA9WHnKiK6?g_st=ic If you have any questions, feel free to comment again.😊✨
Hi Shiba-san, thanks for the video clip. It is very helpful. I will head to Yodoyabashi from KIX airport. If i took this Nankai rapit train to Namba station. Can I transfer to Yodoyabashi train without exit Namba station? Would you mind share the restaurant details showed at clip 14:09?
Hi! Thank you for the comment. After getting to Naknai Namba Station, from there to Osaka Metro Midosuji Line Namba Station, follow the route the video below shows. th-cam.com/video/QS6wJHDWz4E/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Afhua5RKMyJ_Dd91 By taking the Osaka Metro Midosuji line you can arrive at Yodoyabashi Station. See the link below for the details of the restaurant, "IWAMA." maps.app.goo.gl/tcEHXrJNRgfeYGbt9
Hi again. For tourists like me, there is only 1 to ticket to purchase to ride the Nankai rapi:t going from KIX to Namba? I saw in this video you have another ticket with the basic fare.
Hi! Thank you for the comment. In order take Rapi:t it is necessary to purchase the limited express ticket in addition to the basic fare ticket, so in some videos I had two tickets. However, at 5:40 by clicking "When the boarding sections is the same with your Limited express ticket" or "KANKU TOKUWARI Rapi:t TICKET" (a discount ticket) you can get one ticket that can be used as both the limited express ticket and the basic fare ticket. If you have any other questions, please do fel free to commnent again.😊
One of our many Japanese homestay daughters was from Osaka..When my daughter was an ELT in Ehime-ken ( 2011-2013) she met up a couple of times with our other "daughter". We spent 3 days in Shinsaibashi before staying 3 days in Kyoto then down to Imabari for 2 weeks...one of those a teaching day... surprise....When people learned we were from NZ they were so :-)).
My pleasure. Kansai Airport Station → [ Nankai rapi:t ] → Nankai Namba Station You can purchase a rapi:t ticket online. www.howto-osaka.com/en/ticket/#qr Namba Station → [ Osaka Metro ] → Hommachi Station You need to purchase a ticket with a ticket machine at Namba Station. If you have an IC card like ICOCA, you can tap and go without buying a ticket. The train system in Osaka is complicated, so if you have any questions, do not hesitate to comment again.
You are very welcome! Yes. There is a locker area. See the link below for details. th-cam.com/video/TK1WLNsmJxQ/w-d-xo.html#t=1m06s If you have any other questions, feel free to comment again.
Hello Shiba, for picking up the pocket wifi will it be on the first floor after I exit immigration? It mentions I need to pick up at JAL ABC counter. Thank you!
Yes. It is on the Arrival floor near the North arrivals. See the link below for details. www.jalabc.com/en/airport_counter/kansai-airport.html If you have any further questions, do feel free to comment again.😊
Hi! Thank you for the comment. If you have taken the last train, the exit is still open. If you have any other questions, please do feel free to comment again.😊
Hi Shiba-shiba, ar minute 4:37, i saw the option of buying “Value Ticket from Kansai … to Osaka Subway ¥1021”. Please explain about it. Does this ticket cover the ride from KIX to Tengachaya and unlimited (or just only one) Osaka subway rides on the same day? Thanks and Regards.
The ticket you mentioned covers the ride from KIX to Namba and one Osaka Metro ride. Unfortunately, it is necessary to transfer at Namba Station. This means you cannot change trains at Tengachaya Station. For details see the link down below. subway.osakametro.co.jp/en/guide/page/tikatokukippu.php If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to comment again.
Hello! IC cards can be used to purchase express tickets from ticket vending machines. If you are worried about purchasing tickets from a ticket machine, please ask a Nankai staff member.😊
Yes. To take Rapi:t, you need to have a limited express ticket in addition to basic fare. This new video also shows you how to get from KIX to Namba taking Rapi:t. Please watch this if you are interested. th-cam.com/video/v0gZL1LCn9w/w-d-xo.html

@@Shiba-Shiba_TrainsInJapan where could we get the Suica card in Osaka Kansai airport?
Unfortunately, Suica is sold in Tokyo area but you can purchase ICOCA in Kansai area instead of Suica. ICOCA and Suica have the same function. To get ICOCA, please visit the counter that is located on the right in the video below.

@@SN19699 In the video I mentioned above, I used elevators.

Thank you! Good video!
My pleasure. Rapi:t is loved by many people. If you have any questions, please feel free to comment again.
Dear Shiba Shiba,
I appreciate all your hard works and helpful youtube clips.
1. In my opinion, they would be more informative if you could please focus on signs/instructions... at every turn, every stairway, platform you used to board the train...a few seconds longer.
2. Also, if I have a JR pass, and I don't want to use Nankai line, how do I get to Namba? Can I use Hakura train to Tenoji station, then transfer to Yamatoji line? If it is correct, is it easy for first time visitors? If you've already had a clip for this route, please send me the link.
Thank you very much for everything.
Best Regards.
You are very welcome. Your comment will help me make better videos.
#1 I attempted to advance videos at a good tempo. However, time to focus on sings and instructions got shorter. I would like to be carfeful about that.
#2 It is correct and easy for everyone but JR Namba station is a little far from Nankai Namba station. The video below will help you.

I will take NANKAI rapi:t train from Kansai airport to Tengachaya next month. Thank you for your information. Initially, I planned to take JR HARUKA Kansai-Airport Express but I changed my mind after watching your video. NANKAI rapi:t train is cute.
Thank you!! Please feel free to make a comment again.
Hi, great video! I've watched several of your videos about purchasing tickets from Kansai Airport to Namba Station. I have a question: Why do you sometimes choose the (Limited Express ticket) and other times, like in this video 5:39, you select the (KANKU TOKUWARI Rapid Ticket) for the same journey? Will the ticket prices differ for each option, and I have an ICOCA card, which option should I choose?
Hi! Thank you for your comment. As you have an ICOCA, you should click "Only the Limited Express Ticket" and then tap your IC card at the ticket gate.
1) "Only the Limited Express Ticket" … When you have an IC card and use it as the basic fare.
2) "When the boarding section is the same with your Limited Express Ticket.” ... In case you do not have an IC card and need to purchase both the limited express ticket and the basic fare ticket.
3) "When the boarding section differs from your Limited Express Ticket” … When your trip starts from the station that the limited express does not stop. In case after going to the station that the limited express stops and you take the limited express from that station, you should click this.
*"KANKU TOKUWARI Rapid Ticket" is a discount ticket of 2).
If you have any other questions, do feel free to comment again.😊
This will help so much. Thank you!

Thank you so much Shiba San for the video, super helpful for our first upcoming trip in May. We are staying at the Hotel Flag Shinsaibashi and will take the Nankai Rapit train to Namba from kansai airport. Because we have two big suitcases, we are thinking of taking a taxi from Namba Station to the hotel. Which exit should we use at the Namba Station? And will there be taxis available around 10 pm? Thank you! We will be watching all your videos to prepare for our trip.😊
Hi! I'm really glad you like my videos. It's good to take a taxi from Nankai Namba Station to the Hotel Flag. After arriving at Nankai Namba Station and getting off the train, head to "3F North Gate" and go through the ticket gate.
( This is "3F North Gate." th-cam.com/video/sFlOWrKLVUc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=rltKJyinrvRBt3tB&t=25 )
You can find an elevator and very long escalators on your left. The elevator or escalator will take you to the 1st floor (ground floor) and there turn left and walk along the Swiss Hotel. Then you can find a taxi stand.

Hi again. For tourists like me, there is only 1 to ticket to purchase to ride the Nankai rapi:t going from KIX to Namba? I saw in this video you have another ticket with the basic fare.
Hi! Thank you for the comment. In order take Rapi:t it is necessary to purchase the limited express ticket in addition to the basic fare ticket, so in some videos I had two tickets. However, at 5:40 by clicking "When the boarding sections is the same with your Limited express ticket" or "KANKU TOKUWARI Rapi:t TICKET" (a discount ticket) you can get one ticket that can be used as both the limited express ticket and the basic fare ticket. If you have any other questions, please do fel free to commnent again.😊
One of our many Japanese homestay daughters was from Osaka..When my daughter was an ELT in Ehime-ken ( 2011-2013) she met up a couple of times with our other "daughter". We spent 3 days in Shinsaibashi before staying 3 days in Kyoto then down to Imabari for 2 weeks...one of those a teaching day... surprise....When people learned we were from NZ they were so :-)).

OMG!
Thank you so much! This will help my upcoming trip.
Is there a way to book a ticket to Hommachi station from Kansai airport?
My pleasure.
Kansai Airport Station → [ Nankai rapi:t ] → Nankai Namba Station
You can purchase a rapi:t ticket online.

Namba Station → [ Osaka Metro ] → Hommachi Station
You need to purchase a ticket with a ticket machine at Namba Station. If you have an IC card like ICOCA, you can tap and go without buying a ticket.
The train system in Osaka is complicated, so if you have any questions, do not hesitate to comment again.

Hi Shiba-shiba, ar minute 4:37, i saw the option of buying “Value Ticket from Kansai … to Osaka Subway ¥1021”. Please explain about it. Does this ticket cover the ride from KIX to Tengachaya and unlimited (or just only one) Osaka subway rides on the same day?
Thanks and Regards.
The ticket you mentioned covers the ride from KIX to Namba and one Osaka Metro ride. Unfortunately, it is necessary to transfer at Namba Station. This means you cannot change trains at Tengachaya Station. For details see the link down below.

@@Shiba-Shiba_TrainsInJapan so I will still need to purchase a tickets from the ticket machine despite having an IC card?
