Transporte em Prefeitura de Hyogo

Since it was my first time in Osaka, I didn't do any preparation and got a little lost trying to find my way. I had some trouble finding my ticket because I brought a paper one instead of using a QR code. I scanned the QR code at the ticket machine, issued the ticket, selected my seats, and received two physical tickets. There's also a counter right next to it where you can get an Icoca card, so minors or those without Apple Pay can handle both at once. They'll issue an Icoca card for 2000 yen.

Totally worth it! Exchange at the station was smooth, and the pass paid for itself within the first couple of days. Traveling around Kansai, Kinosaki Onsen, Hemeiji, Kobe, Nara, Osaka, Kyoto, and Amanohashidate was super convenient and hassle-free. Highly recommended!

このパスは最高でした。移動にとても便利で、使い勝手も抜群でした。唯一の難点は、1つのアカウントに複数のQRコードを紐付けると、別の人へ切り替えるのに時間がかかることくらいです。

Great pass. I used it to take the Rapid train from Osaka to Kyoto. I went to Arashiyama for the bamboo forest and UZUMASA Kyoto village. Also to the Kyoto railway museum and Gion. Keep in mind that the JR stations may require a little more walking than other stations to sightseeing spots. A bit more planning is required. Great Value though, especially choosing this pass through the Klook Kansai Pass.

The Kansai–Hiroshima Pass is definitely worth it. It includes the sightseeing bus that lets you hop on and off at Hiroshima's major attractions, which saved me both time and money while exploring the city. I do feel that one day isn't enough to fully experience Hiroshima, as there are many more places worth visiting. The pass also offers excellent value because it can be used on JR lines to travel to other destinations within its coverage

On my return trip to Osaka, I once again purchased the Kansai Thru Pass 3-day ticket. This time, I visited Maiko Park in Kobe to see the Akashi Kaikyō Bridge. I also spent a day each in Uji (a World Heritage site), Kyoto, and Nara. For the return journey from Nara, there are also limited express trains back to Nihonbashi or Namba Station.

I used a physical ticket for exchange, so I exchanged it at the West Japan Green Window at Hakata Station and also reserved seats for future Shinkansen and limited express trains, which was very convenient. Highly recommended. Fukuoka - Shin-Yamaguchi - Hiroshima - Onomichi - Okayama - Yonago. Please note that in Fukuoka, you can only take the Shinkansen from Fukuoka to Kokura and cannot transfer to Kyushu JR.

Perfect for travelers using the Sanyo Shinkansen. The pass covers the Sanyo Shinkansen between Shin-Osaka and Hakata. Please note: Kokura and Mojiko are already within the JR Shikoku area, and this pass cannot be used for trains below limited express. Price: Still 22,000 yen.

We bought the 7-day rail pass for the Kansai-Hokuriku area. When we arrived at Kansai Airport, we used this pass to take a train from Osaka Airport to Fukui. Of course, you have to change trains a few times, but it was manageable for us even though we had three large pieces of luggage. We also took the Shinkansen from Fukui to Toyama and from Shin-Osaka to Okayama. If you travel a lot within these 7 days, this pass is for you. However, if it's only for one trip, it's not worth it.
