Konichiwa! Thank you so much Yuki, this has been the best video I have seen about the ICOCA card, I only wish I could buy the card online and pick it up at the machine, it would be quicker. I will be in Kyoto next week. Good luck with you art!
I would be very grateful if you could tell me which train is the most economical to travel from Tokyo to Kyoto and back. I am arriving on January 15th and this would be very helpful to me. What do you think? Thanks again and good luck.
Thank you for the information. My wife and I will be traveling to Japan in December and this helps us tremendously. One question though, can the Icoca card be used in Tokyo, Kanazawa and Osaka? Many videos aren’t that clear as to the overall coverage of these IC cards and I just want to make sure.
Yes, ICOCA card can be used in Tokyo and Osaka. About Kanazawa, I think if you are t taking buses in the city, it may not be supported. It depends on the bus company. Please bring some coins for just in case!
Thank you so much for sharing this video! May I know if the ICOCA card can be used on the Rapi:t trains from Kansai International Airport to Namba station in Osaka? Thanks in advance !
i wish japan had more unity... one card for everything. why 5? and why are some cards not working in some places? the thing that scares me most about traveling through japan... from north to south at least, is what card is working for me? do i need to buy a ticket? is the card alone sufficient? earlier people hyped the JR pass but then again even the JR pass which is now way overpriced is not valid for every vehicle. but i guess those are tourists-only troubles... native japanese will probably not have those issues as they're using primarily the same route and move in the same region where regional cards and tickets will always be valid .... maybe...

Can I purchase this card in Tokyo? I've mostly seen people mentioning they purchase from Osaka.
You can buy a SUICA card, which c be used just like ICOCA card.
@@Yuki_from_kyoto_japan so we cannot purchase icoca card in Tokyo?
No, but you can use SUICA card in Kyoto, too!
