It's cheaper to buy tickets on Klook in advance than at the venue. You can redeem and select your seats beforehand, and use a QR code to enter.

this was such a fun experience we were laughing the whole time the pigs are very cute and the staff make an effort to make sure everyone has a cuddle. please note you will need to sit in the floor the entire time, there was others who were complaining because they have back problems. You will need to wear socks as you have to remove your shoes as well. staff will take a photo for you and you can buy for 2,200 yen otherwise you can take as many photos as you want on your phone with no flash. we received our post cards but no donuts even though it was part on the package. I would highly recommend and then get pancakes after down stairs so good !!

We had planned to use it at night, but my family was very tired, so we moved it up to around sunset. There were only four of us on the cruise—my family and one other gentleman—so it felt like a private cruise, haha! The guide gave excellent explanations, and the City cruise had the best facilities. The person assisting us spoke Korean so well, I wondered if they were Korean, which made things very comfortable. A cruise offers a different kind of scenery than walking around, so I highly recommend trying it at least once!

I used the Haruka train to travel from Kansai Airport to Kyoto. I purchased a QR voucher through Klook, and it was very convenient because I didn't have to wait in a long line to exchange the voucher for a ticket; I could just scan the QR barcode directly at the ticket gate to enter. It was also great that I could easily reserve seats and change boarding times online.

Mr Mike is the best! trip to day trip to Osaka and Kyoto was a blast! he is very friendly and gave us tips and showed points of interest during our ride. We had an unplanned interest to visit Uji to get Matcha, he was very kind to take us there. Mr Mike also suggested a place for lunch where locals eat, and it was one of the best meals we had in Japan! he was always guiding us on where we need to head on tourist spots and suggested areas that we can visit next time. the whole family had a blast, thank you Mr Mike! he also speaks english very well! we ended the day back in Osaka on time and with really enjoyed our trip. he was also always on time.

The guide was very informative and friendly! It's fine even if you go alone. I recommend this to anyone who doesn't know what to do on their trip.

The "JR Kansai Wide Area Pass" is highly recommended! The exchange process is quite simple; you can quickly pick it up at the station counter. It's also very convenient to use, as you almost never have to worry about transportation when riding JR trains. The itinerary is very flexible, allowing easy access to popular attractions like Tottori, Amanohashidate, Kinosaki Onsen, Wakayama, and Shirahama, essentially covering all of Kansai and its surrounding areas. Plus, if your plans change unexpectedly, you can cancel for free if unused, which is completely stress-free. Overall, it's an excellent value and highly recommended for anyone looking to explore Kansai in depth!
