FAQ
Stay in Osaka and day-trip Kyoto?
Yes if you leave early — trains take about 15–30 minutes depending on station. Don’t overload one day.
How do I get in from KIX?
JR Haruka or Nankai into Namba/Tennoji — compare time vs ticket price.
Need a car in Osaka?
Not in the city. Parking is expensive and roads are confusing — save cars for out-of-town routes.
