Convenient and Affordable! The JR Kansai Mini Pass from Klook was a great value for exploring the Kansai region. Booking was simple, and exchanging for the pass was hassle-free. It covered major destinations like Kyoto, Osaka, and Nara, making travel super convenient. Highly recommend for short trips!

I bought it just before entering Osaka Castle. I recommend buying it in advance because you don't have to wait in line to buy tickets on the day, so you can enter smoothly. There were about 100 people in the line to buy tickets on the day at 9:00. (30 minute wait) There are a lot of foreign tourists, so it's better to buy in advance.

Team Lab never disappoints.This one was different from all the Team Lab art installations we have seen.Set in a botanical garden and only opens at night ,prepare to be captivated by light and sounds set in VAST open spaces. This activity requires one to WALK A LOT throughout the whole experience. but there are places you can sit and relax .restrooms as well.

It is very convenient to exchange physical tickets in Nagoya. It is very convenient to go to the Kintetsu ticket office. You can go to Nahanazato and Nagashima outlets. There are free buses and it is very cost-effective.
