We landed at Osaka Kansai and the first order of the trip was get to Osaka City. Nankai rail service was the most direct way to Namba Station. There are two options: the normal train or the limited express Nankai Express. For light travellers, the former is better. For me, I had my tickets pre-booked in advance via klook and picked them up conveniently at the station. Seats are reserved and each cart has luggage space. There is also overhead racks for small luggage and a medium bag can fit at the seats as the leg rooms are large. Very nice and convenient to get from Kansai to Namba. …

If you have your phone it is real easy to set it up and follow the train routes on the trains. Real easy to follow announcements of speakers who tell you which stops are next.

Otherwise very efficient way to get around and a lot cheaper than a taxi.…

This was a very comfortable and convenient option to get to the airport and highly recommended. 1400Y…

This is a train service between Kansai airport and Namba/Umeda, which are the two main centers of Osaka. The train station is connected to the main terminal and about a 5 minute walk.

There are two types of train service: the regular one which stops at many stations and no reserved seats, while the express is 15 minutes faster and offers reserved seats. We paid a little more and took the express, which was about 45 minutes. The train ride was very clean and it was a comfortable ride. …

This is a small railway but the fare is cheap for the airport express KIX to Namba station where it connects to other lines on the Nankai network. We bought a special combo ticket which also allows return travel to Himeji. Journey is smooth and service is punctual. Can buy the ticket at Kansai airport.…
