Reviews: JR PASS Japan Kansai Area Rail Pass (Electronic Exchange Voucher)

This time, since we were going to ski at Hong Kong Hill, which is quite far from Osaka, we bought this JR Pass, which was very cost-effective. A round trip would normally cost around 6,000-7,000 yen, so this basically saved us half the price. I recommend buying GRP tickets if you're traveling to distant places in Japan, as they generally save you money, and if you buy tickets for multiple trips, they often include some premium fares.

I brought my elderly friends here to celebrate my grandmother and grandfather's 80th birthday. Our guide, Yuri, was very kind and helpful, and the driver drove very well and took such good care of the elderly. Thank you. Of course, he found great travel spots and explained things well, and we had a really fun time. If I come again, I would like to meet our guide, Yuri, again.

Although the direct flight is tired, it saves the trouble of connecting flights. Although the hotel may be full of free choice, if you have done enough homework, you can still book a hotel with a high cost performance.
Very convenient to use. This time I used the Keihan Railway + Osaka Subway combination. I forgot my wallet and had to go back to get it, but luckily I didn't have to pay extra for transportation. It's suitable for first-time travelers who are unfamiliar with the transportation system, as you don't have to worry about missing your stop and wasting money. In the morning, I took the subway to Yodoyabashi and transferred to the Keihan Railway to Kiyomizu-dera Temple. On the way back, I visited Fushimi Inari, Tofuku-ji Temple, and Uji. Very cost-effective.

Reviews: Kyoto & Nara & Uji World Heritage Day Tour: Nara Park & Fushimi Inari & Byodoin & Matcha Street

Our tour guide was incredibly friendly and talkative! He shared a lot of travel tips with us, and the whole experience was truly wonderful because of him 👍
In Nara, we saw baby deer and their mothers, bought a deer-shaped piggy bank, and won some Demon Slayer gashapon toys; in Uji, we ate at Ito Kyuemon and bought everything we'd regretted not getting before; at Fushimi Inari, we bought a limited-edition Chiikawa, the thousand torii gates were beautiful, and the food stalls near the entrance smelled amazing—remember to bring plenty of cash!
This itinerary might have been better if we had started from Kyoto.

The flight time and transfer time are long, and it is already evening to reach Chiang Mai.
Fewer hotels, more hotels in the local area
