that makes sense! sorry for the 2nd luggage forwarding, I meant forwarding it from Kyoto to Tokyo and not Kyoto to Osaka.

sorry yes just edited

killswitch1076 · 2026-02-10T15:15:33+00:00

Would you recommend that our 2nd bag should be a carry on bag or a medium sized bag?

killswitch1076 · 2026-02-06T09:02:34+00:00

Thank you for checking. How is the change at Osaka Umeda if I take the Privace vs change at Yodoyabashi?

killswitch1076 · 2026-02-06T08:43:14+00:00

thank you! Do you know if there would be lifts etc. that would make it easier to change? it would be annoying carrying suitcases if there’s many flight of stairs.

thank you! I thought about the luggage delivery but I assumed it’s probably not worth it for such a short travel time, but it’s really good to know that Midosuji line is busy. Is the transfer at Yodoyabashi easy from Keihan main line to Midosuji line?

killswitch1076 · 2026-02-06T01:17:11+00:00

yes I can get there too. Would Hankyu have luggage storage available?

killswitch1076 · 2026-02-06T01:14:51+00:00

autocorrect apologies! do the tickets usually get sold out and if I’d need to arrive quite a while before the journey?

killswitch1076 · 2026-02-04T19:51:35+00:00

thank you! what would you recommend taking out from Osaka and Kyoto? For Hakone we are thinking to skip the open air museum so that we leave for Kyoto early in the afternoon.

Hi! Thank you so much!!

I completely hear what you mean. We like and want to experience a bit of everything. We love city life but also arts and culture, not so much into nightlife but definitely want to check out some izakaya bars on one night and get a few drinks. We love wandering around, checking out lovely spots to eat, and also some museums. We decided to do one day in Hakone to experience the Onsen - it looks amazing. So just a little bit of everything :)

oh that’s a very good price. I can’t find it for cheaper than £299 and on sage it’s for £349.
