easy to collect. i collect at the JR office at KIX station. just went to the counter and show the slip in my phone. i can also book the shinkansen for the dates the pass is active even before the pass was activated. i booked the pass to start on day 6 of my trip onwards. i get to ride the one piece shinkansen with it. A return day trip from shin osaka to takamatsu already worth the kansai wide area pass.

This was a very fun experience. I was able to learn how to make nigiri as well as learn how to make the Californian roll. I 10/10 recommend to you if you love sushi and sashimi.

I think it was a great move to find a place near Dotonbori for my boyfriend and I to stay in Osaka for the first time. The facilities were clean, the bathrooms were nice (I thought it was a swimming pool), and although we couldn't use the spa together, it was a great way to relax. I would definitely come back!

The 1 hour session was really worth the time and money! We learnt about history of Japan, food, got our hands sticky from mochi balls, photos and lots of fun and laughter. The team of ladies (Lena, Luna, Izumi and another lady sorry I forgot your name) were exceptional in their effort to present in spoke in English. Kudos 👏 I would definitely recommend this class to anyone visiting Dontonburi! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

It was a difficult course to see in one day, but thanks to the Rakuraku tour, I was able to see the places I wanted to see with ease. I took a lot of photos I liked and made happy memories, so it was a perfect day. The guide gave me various information about Japan while we were moving, and the photos he took for me while posing at the travel destinations... It was all great. The list of good restaurants, shopping lists, various discount coupons, and answers to my questions that he gave me when I returned to Osaka were also very helpful. If I go on a trip outside of Osaka, I will look for the Rakuraku tour again. This tour that allows you to see Nara Park, Arashiyama, and Kiyomizu-dera in one day~~~ Highly recommended. ^^ (Thank you, guide Leo!!! Thanks to you, it was an enjoyable tour.)
