Transportation to Tempozan Pier, Osaka
I'm not sure how we'll get from our hotel in Kyoto to the cruise ship port in Osaka. Our hotel is close to Kyoto Station, so I guess we could take the JR train to Osaka Station and take a taxi to the pier. This would be the most economical way to go especially if our rail pass is still valid. I think the taxi would be about $30US. A taxi from Kyoto to the pier could run us anywhere from $150 to $500 according to online postings. A person on the Fodor's forum is also looking for transportation from Kyoto to the pier....they'll also be getting on the Sapphire Princess. They found that they can probably arrange transportation for about US$125 at the hotel's concierge. Princess Cruises is charging US$90 per person from the Rihga Royal Hotel in Kyoto to the port but then you'd have to get to the Rihga Royal first. I asked MK Sky Gate Shuttle in an email if they would do this but they didn't understand very well and said they don't go to the port.I think that handling the luggage to the station and onto the train and then taking the taxi from Osaka sounds onerous but I think we'll wait and see when we get to Kyoto.
