Desde el aeropuerto

Most international visitors arrive via Kansai International Airport (KIX). The most direct connection to Kyoto Station is the express train, taking about 75 to 80 minutes. Alternatively, airport shuttle buses are available, usually requiring 90 to 100 minutes depending on traffic. Taxis are available but significantly more expensive and subject to road conditions. Domestic travelers may arrive at Osaka Itami Airport, connecting to Kyoto by limousine bus in approximately 50 to 60 minutes.

Cómo moverse

Kyoto has an extensive network of buses and two subway lines. The city grid is well-suited for walking, particularly in the historic central and eastern districts. For outlying areas, private and municipal rail lines are efficient. Rental bicycles are a popular way to navigate the flat terrain. Taxis are abundant, while car rentals are generally discouraged due to dense traffic and limited, expensive parking.

Dinero y propinas

The currency is the Japanese Yen (JPY). While credit card acceptance has increased significantly in hotels and larger retailers, Japan remains a cash-oriented society. Carrying yen for small shops, temples, and transport is essential. Tipping is not part of Japanese culture, and offering tips can sometimes cause confusion or be politely refused by staff.
