My partner and I had a really great experience with Edward on this photoshoot. When we requested to take photos away from the Kyoto crowds, he thoughtfully suggested to do a photoshoot at a nearby garden instead where it was much more quieter. This made us more comfortable and confident during the shoot. Also he provided katana and umbrella props upon request, which was pretty sick!! :D

Masaki-san and company are incredible. Extremely knowledgeable and more importantly, enthusiastic about Nara and everything Nara has to offer. Masaki-san, Mike-san and the guesthouse owner were all the perfect amount of friendly, warm, educational and funny. Highly recommend to add to your Nara experience.

An immersive and highly enjoyable experience. The host is very good at explaining the deep concepts and meticulous procedures of both matcha preparation and the tea ceremony. We greatly enjoyed both the experience and the sweets reserved for us. The host speaks excellent English and immediately puts you at ease. We were also fortunate enough to meet one of the few artisans in Japan who produce matcha whisks. Very helpful also in giving advice on places to visit and shops where to do tastings or purchases. We also learned how to make matcha tea with our own hands. Great experience

Had a session in Nara early December with the family. Enjoyed the session very much. Photographer was easy to deal and easy-going. He showed us around Nara park. Went to the less populated area and the deers where gentler. The photographers gave us easy guide and instructions. Overall a very pleasant experience!

Value and convenient! The price of this ticket is just a round trip between Osaka city and KIX airport by Haruka train, but it also allows you to travel on any other regular JR service in four days! You can get to Kyoto, Nara, Kobe, Wakayama. it is just of great value.

The convenience of electronic tickets, which don't require exchange, is great. I also purchased a Kintetsu 5-day electronic ticket a year ago. However, unfortunately, I couldn't open the ticket at the station at all, and ultimately couldn't use it and had to cancel. I used a transportation card to go to the Kintetsu Nagoya Station ticket office and bought a physical ticket. I originally wanted to buy a physical ticket this time, but unfortunately, they stopped selling them on March 31, 2025; only electronic tickets are available. Each time you use it, you have to re-enter and open the ticket to use it, but many stations that aren't major stations often don't have 5G network, only LTE. I'm very worried that I won't be able to open the ticket. Although I was able to use it this time, I still prefer physical tickets over electronic tickets; I have a bit of a phobia about using electronic tickets.

This is my second time getting this pass and I would always get this for my Kansai itnerary. It is very convenient to have especially when multiple companies are operating different set of train lines. Also, its coverage so vast so that you can basically do unlimited variation of your itineraries.
