Which train from Kansai Airport to Kyoto?

MeTravel AI Assistant

For Osaka take the Nankai line; for Kyoto take the JR Haruka.

  • Nankai Rapi:t: to Namba (Osaka) in about 40 minutes; regular Nankai trains are cheaper and a little slower.
  • JR Haruka: to Kyoto Station in about 75–80 minutes, stopping at Tennoji and Shin-Osaka.
  • Limousine buses: go to Umeda, Namba and Kyoto; good with big luggage.

Note: foreign visitors can often buy a discounted Haruka ticket bundled with an ICOCA card; ask at the JR counter in the airport.
