Transferência de carro particular de Kyoto para Osaka

As you jumpstart your journey from Kyoto, take time to explore the temples and shrines on your way out. Then as you travel towards Osaka, consider stopping in Nara, where Todaiji Temple and Nara Park are located. Further, along the way, Uji is another must-visit destination known for its landscapes and the renowned Byodoin Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Continuing the drive, head over to the Suntory Yamazaki Distillery, where you can learn about Japanese whiskey production in Yamazaki. If you’re looking for something more family-friendly then Hirakata Park, an amusement park, would be the perfect pitstop.

Since Osaka is closer to Kyoto than many other cities in the country, it’s only a short Shinkansen bullet train ride from the former capital. But, if you’re looking to soak in more experiences and slow travel then a road trip is also a fantastic choice.

While you’re in Osaka, don’t miss the following attractions:

• Universal Studios Japan
• Osaka Castle
• Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan
• Dotonbori
• Sumiyoshi Taisha
• Shitenno-ji
• Umeda Sky Building

Osaka, the third-largest city in Japan, was a key port and commercial hub during the fifth century. It thrived during the Edo period from the early 17th century to the mid-19th century as the “Nation’s Kitchen”, as Osaka was the center for rice trading then.

Osaka’s modernization was spurred during the Meiji era from the end of the Edo period to the early 20th century. During World War II, the city was heavily bombed but stood up once more to become a metropolis revered globally for its economic prowess and rich cultural heritage.

Plan your budget

The prices of goods in Osaka can be high, so it's wise to explore all options to save as much as possible. Osaka has affordable hostels where you can stay, such as Len Kyoto and Gojo Guest House. On the opposite end, the top luxury hotels in this city are The Ritz-Carlton and Conrad Osaka.

Trains are quiet places

When inside public transportation like trains, stay quiet and be respectful of others. This means no talking on the phone and always using headphones.

If you have a hankering for bullet adjacent speed there’s a faster option. You can take the Shinkansen bullet train, taking you to your destination in just roughly 15 minutes. The price of a one-way ticket is around $9. There are also shops and restaurants at the Osaka Shinkansen station.

Travelers say that your trip to Japan won’t count if you haven’t tried riding their bullet trains.

Kyoto to Osaka by bus

Buses offer a budget-friendly alternative for traveling from Kyoto to Osaka. The ride takes approximately one hour and 30 minutes, depending on traffic. The price of a bus ticket starts at $7. However, this isn’t the most convenient option especially if you come from the airport and have heavy luggage to haul around.

Kyoto to Osaka with Daytrip

If you don’t want to tire yourself out from driving then book a private car transfer with Daytrip. This is a better alternative for those who want convenience, flexibility, and to do a bit of sightseeing.

Daytrip’s cars are clean, comfortable, and air-conditioned. A local, English-speaking driver will bring you safely to your destination dropping you off with door-to-door service. We’ve already found the best places to visit on the way, so all you have to do is pick which sounds most interesting and you’ve got yourself an unforgettable day!

Kyoto to Osaka by rental car

Osaka is closer to Kyoto than to other major cities in Japan. Although not as fast as a bullet train, the distance really isn’t far, making driving a convenient option. This gives you the chance to explore stops along the way. Keep in mind that parking in Osaka can be expensive and challenging to find.

Nature and outdoors

Osaka’s outdoor experiences are a must-try. Visit Osaka Castle Park, where you can view the cherry blossoms in spring and have intimate picnics. You may also explore the waterfront at Osaka Bay and enjoy the expansive green spaces of Expo '70 Commemorative Park. For an active adventure, take a day tour to nearby Minoh Falls, a spot ideal for hiking.

Tradition

Your friends who’ve visited Japan always post pictures online. Now it’s your turn. Pull out your camera and take snapshots of Sumiyoshi Taisha, one of Japan's oldest Shinto shrines.

You can also take videos of the traditional boat processions and fireworks at the Tenjin Matsuri festival. And save some space if you’d like to record the age-old art of Bunraku– a traditional Japanese puppet theater that originated in Osaka.

Wellness

Relaxation and wellness are integral to the Osaka experience. For a moment of calm and mindfulness, experience a traditional Japanese tea ceremony. This city also offers serene gardens like the Nakanoshima Park Rose Garden, perfect for a retreat amidst the hustle and bustle of life.

Art and culture

Osaka is also a cultural hub with a diverse array of art and entertainment. The Osaka Museum of History and the Osaka National Museum of Art provide insights into the city's past and contemporary artistic expressions. The Namba district is home to numerous theaters and live music venues.

Last but not least, don't forget to visit the Umeda Sky Building and its Floating Garden Observatory.

If you're planning to come for the Cherry Blossom Festival in the spring, Osaka is a perfect pairing with more traditional Kyoto.

A summer vacation in this city is also great, but remember this season can be hot and humid. Notable festivals to attend include the Daigaku Festival, Tenjin Matsuri, and Yodogawa Fireworks Festival.
