Questions:
- Based on my itinerary, should I get both ICOCA & Kyoto 500 yen 1 day bus pass? If so, which days in Kyoto do I need bus pass?
- pls provide missing transportation link in my itinerary
- How to take transport from Kiyomezudera to Nishiki Market?
- In Osaka, are Shinsekai, Denden Town & Dotonbori all walkable from each other?
Pls comment & suggest. Thank you.

Denden town and dotonbori are within walking distance.

Day 2 may be too full, especially if you are relying on buses to get around for any part.

I was in kyoto 2 days ago.
