Get it if you are staying at Kyoto or Osaka and wish to travel to Nara.
It drops you off right outside Nara park.
It is much more centrally located than JR.
Good value too!
We made good use of the tourist buses

Best value for getting around in Kansai region. Good price, nice routes, the bus passes is really what sets this apart though.

Awesome pass. Got us from Nagoya to Ise on trains. Then all around Toba area, buses and trains, then also to Nara by train. Really good value pass if you're doing a compact 5 day trip to the Mei area.

After I have ordered this pass online and I made 1 amendment online immediately. However, when I approached the ticket counter for collection, the System cannot recognise my order. Staff spent half an hour to issue a pass for me.

Kintetsu Rail Pass is a good choice if you travel bigger distances within the Kyoto/Nara/Osaka region. For example from Kyoto to Asuka.
I only have one complain. I thought I would get nice looking ticket as advertised (2-day pass in my case) but in reality when I picked up the ticket at Kyoto station, I only received a regular blue/turquoise ticket like all the other JR tickets.

It covers a lot of sightseeing point. Station staffs are helpful with English communication is not a problem. Easy to access, not a complicated network. Base on this ticket, you can pay more for a faster train, so it is flexible on you budget vs. time.

this review is for my trip from Nankai station in Namba to KIX airport. It was easy. Office to exchange voucher is right next to gate in the nankai mall near luxury shopping. Not crowded. easy to move around luggage. The coin lockers are not advanced tech and not numerous. Namba station is also near many shopping outside like Bic Camera and 2 blocks from Dotonbori.
The train ride was smooth and not crowded with nice reserved lounger seats.

Your voucher is exchanged at office where they schedule you a reservation on the luxury and fast train to the heart of Osaka. otherwise you will have to figure out your ride yourself and get lost. it saves time, easy to use, staff speaks English, and is comfortable. KIX is 40 minutes south of downtown and would be longer without Rapit

This pass was not good value for us. We didn’t realise how little of Kyoto it covered (subways are run by a different company) and it not being able to use it in limited express trains, was inconvenient. Would have been cheaper to just use our Icoca cards and pay for each leg.

Your offering of the train ride to KIX Airport from Osaka City was much appreciated as an economical alternative to a limousine service! It was hassle-free, very accessible, comfortable & speedy. You should offer this in ALL major cities with train rides to an airport, I certainly would avail of this every single time.

This pass is great for travel to kyoto and nara from nagoya.
We were a bit disappointed that it did not include reserved seats on express trains and we had to add money for that.

A very convenient and cheap option if want to see places of interest in kyoto, nara, osaka and the surrounding areas. Though it is a free seating, one can travel in comfort and most importantly, choose your own timing..

The Kintetsu staff were very helpful and even assisted to get a ramp for us at every station as we had a wheelchair.

The staff was extremely helpful and friendly! We also really enjoyed spending the day in Yoshino! It was only 90 minutes on the train from Osaka, definitely worth a day trip!

It provides wide range area travel among Nagoya, Kyoto and Osaka, as well as Mie and Nara. If not a rush tour, it is a cost-effective ticket. For the limited express train users, extra cost for the limited express ticket make it less attractive, but still an alternative choice.

The reservation charge for a return trip between Osaka and Nagoya was higher than the pass price.

Used it to get to Suzuka (Shiroko station) from Nagoya for 3 days of F1 GP so easily paid for itself. Will also get me to Kyoto but for that I will pay extra for the ^Limited Express^ as I need space for luggage and the time saying is bigger & get reserved seats.

kintetsu pass is good!
it can be better if kintetsu railway to offer 5-10 places/tourist spots with huge discount such as
for example, offer free ticket to
-Osaka Umeda sky building,
-Nara temple ticket( forgot which one) ,
-Nagoya castle ticket,
-Uji 平等宫 ticket
to attract ppl travel along the line.
in my opinion, the small discount is not going to attract tourists much.
hope my idea help you.

Perfect for travelers on a budget. You cannot get a better deal to travel between Nagoya and Osaka (beautiful Kyoto included), and even other areas. The trips take longer but you get to know many places and scenery that you would miss if you were to take the shinkansen. You cannot ride the limited express trains with this pass. TIP: take the express trains that skip many stations, DO NOT take the semi-express or the local trains as they stop at every station.

First time buying this pass. Biggest problem was having to go to some specific stations to get the actual pass. This should all be electronic and the pass can be obtained anywhere by scanning a QRcode for example. All train tickets should not read a piece of paper in this day an age.
