Review for: Round-trip ticket

Staying at a hotel near the entrance of Universal Studios Japan (USJ), taking this shuttle boat is the most convenient way to get to the Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan. It takes about ten minutes to arrive, and buying tickets on Klook is also very convenient. The pier is very close to USJ and easy to find. Please note that you need to exchange for a paper ticket before boarding, and also check the shuttle boat's schedule in advance; it departs approximately every half hour.

Reasonable price and ease of buying a ticket on Klook is second to none! Just be aware when you buy your confirmation QR code has to be taken into the ticket office booth for them to scan to give you a physical ticket. The agents are really sweet and helpful, they'll direct you where you need to go even if there's a bit of a language barrier. It was a fast and smooth sailing from USJ to the aquarium! Best way to get to there, even if you get off at the Universal City station and walk over to the ferry station just outside Hotel Universal Port.

You can use it on-site the same day you purchase it, which is so convenient! Just show your booking confirmation at the ticket counter to redeem your boat ticket. After visiting the aquarium, you can take the boat directly to Universal Studios. It's perfect for those with large luggage, as the path is easy to navigate the whole way.

Taking the ferry from Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan to Universal Studios Japan is a fantastic way to tour Osaka Bay. The journey takes about ten minutes, and the rooftop deck allows you to feel the sea breeze and admire the beautiful scenery. I highly recommend this experience.

Review for: One-way ticket

It's very convenient. I took the second Meimon Taiyo ferry, arriving at Osaka Nanko at 8:30 AM. From there, I took the subway to Osakako Station, and within a 10-minute walk, I could see the ticket booth. The boat ride to Universal Studios took about 10 minutes, saving me the hassle of transferring on the subway. The timing was perfect to catch the first boat at 9:30 AM, and it was very comfortable with few people.

I think this is the fastest and most convenient way to get to Kaiyukan! It was easy to book in advance through Klook. It seems to operate every hour at 15 and 45 minutes past the hour.

It's fast, much faster than transferring to the MRT. It runs once an hour, so be sure to check the schedule to avoid missing it and having to take the MRT again.

Review for: Round-trip ticket

Staying at the Universal Port Hotel, it's convenient and quick to go downstairs, walk to the back, and scan the QR code to exchange tickets. It only takes 10 minutes to get to Tempozan. The only downside is that the last ferry departs at 5:00 PM, so you have to head back then.

Remember to exchange your ticket after arriving at the location. The staff will also remind you. The whole trip isn't long, so you don't have to worry about seasickness. It's very convenient to travel between the Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan and Universal Studios Japan!
