Osaka to Kobe Cruise Terminal

Recommended Posts

We are cruising out of Kobe after a week in Japan so we plan to stay in Osaka the days before the cruise.

Does anyone know what a taxi would cost? We would probably stay at a hotel close to Shin-Osaka station.

 

Once we return we would have to make our way to Narita or Haneda to fly out the next day. Is the train station close to the cruise terminal?

 

Thank you for your help!

Taxis in Japan are relatively inexpensive.

We took the train from Kobe to Osaka for an excursion.

 

The Kobe Cruise Terminal has its own monorail line (Portliner) connecting the terminal to other train stations.

So transport is very convenient.

 

Enjoy Japan!

A taxi from Shin-Osaka station to Kobe Station will cost you around 13,000¥. The train will cost you 836¥ per person. Both trips take the same amount of time.

 

Haneda and Narita Airports are both very close to train stations, but you haven't told us where you will be after the cruise, or which train stations you will be going through.

If you are taking Shinkansen (bullet trains) to Tokyo area, at some point you will need to transfer to regular JR trains or subways to get to the airports.

 

Haneda airport is just South of the Tokyo Metro area, and just North of Yokohama. If you take a JR train or Toei O-Edo subway to Hamamatsucho station in Tokyo, you can transfer to the Tokyo Monorail, which quickly takes you into Haneda Airport. There are also many shuttle buses from Yokohama Hotels and Yokohama Station that take you directly to Haneda Airport.

 

Narita Airport is about 100km North of Tokyo. From a JR train, you can transfer to a Narita Express train at Yokohama, Shinagawa, Shibuya, Shinjuku, or Tokyo Stations. Narita Express will take you directly into Terminals 1, 2, or 3 at Narita Airport.
