Osaka is a port city on Japan’s southern Honshu coast. Once a merchant hub in the Edo period, it’s now a modern center of trade, entertainment, and culinary culture. Osaka weather shifts from steamy summers to cool winters, so there’s always a good time to visit.

Don’t miss one of the world’s biggests aquariums—Osaka Aquarium, or the neon-lit streets of Dotonbori—a paradise for food lovers chasing their next great bite.

Reviews: [Optional Universal Studios Japan/JR Pass] Premium Have Fun in Kansai Pass 1 Week Free Pass
Guest User2025-12-05
Maximum Value for USJ & Osaka Sightseeing!
Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars (Excellent)
Version Used: Deluxe Pass (USJ & Transport Combo)
My Itinerary Highlights: Universal Studios Japan + Popcorn Bucket, Abeno Harukas 300, Umeda Sky Building, KIX Limousine Bus (arrival), and HARUKA Limited Express (departure).
I highly recommend the Have Fun in Kansai Premium Pass, specifically the Deluxe version that includes Universal Studios Japan (USJ). For a trip that focuses on major Osaka attractions and requires convenient airport transfers, this pass is an absolute no-brainer for maximizing value.★

Reviews: [Official Ticket] JR PASS Kansai Wide Area Railway Pass 5-Day (E-Redemption Voucher)
Guest User2026-01-21
This pass is absolutely amazing!!! Combined with the Amanohashidate entrance fee, the round trip to Amanohashidate alone is enough to break even!!! All other attractions are practically free!★

Reviews: Osaka, Japan|Captain Line Express Shuttle Ferry Cruise - Shuttling between Universal Studios Japan and Osaka Aquarium KAIYUKAN
Guest User2025-12-23
I went to Universal and then to the Marine Park. The pier was within walking distance, and it was really close, so I was happy to get there quickly. The boat was clean and comfortable. It's much faster and more comfortable than the subway, so I recommend it.★

Reviews: [Official Ticket] JR Kansai Mini Rail Pass 3-Day (Electronic Redemption Voucher)
Guest User2025-11-08
My trip to Osaka was from November 2nd to 6th, 2025. I bought the JR Kansai Mini Pass, which was quite convenient and cost-effective. I visited Kobe and Kyoto, both of which had new rapid transit lines. On the last day, I also took the Airport Express. Note that cars 5-8 on the Airport Express might be assigned to Wakayama, so be sure to take cars 1-4. I also took the Arashiyama Scenic Railway; make sure you buy the correct section ticket, as it offers round-trip tickets. I bought the wrong one.★
