What travelers are saying

The price is a little expensive, but due to the efficient, comfortable and 'on time' service, it's worth the money for the beautiful train heading towards Namba/ Kansai Airport.

Get the reserved seats.

Be careful as sometimes you might be at right track but the train is a express train and may go right by your stop.

Best way to downtown Osaka (Namba, Umeda, etc.) from KIX

The Nankai line train is the easiest way to get into downtown Osaka (Namba, Shinsaibashi, Hommachi, Umeda, etc.) from KIX. If you don't have any discount ticket (more info below) and want to save ¥500, then just take the normal express train for ¥920, rather...More

Best Option from KIX to Namba

Take the rapid train. Departs twice every hour at 0:05 and 0:35. Get the reserved seats. Only 38 mins from KIX to Namba or Namba to KIX. Stress free and cost effective.
