If you will fly in/out KIX and stay 5 nights in Kyoto only, basically Icoca & Haruka ticket round trip type is your best bet.
Kansai Thru Pass is also useful to travel from KIX to Kyoto, but this is valid only for non-JR ("private") railways, which requires at least two transfers and is slower than Haruka direct train.
If you travel Nara and Osaka in one day, it will be somewhat packed. You can use Icoca prepaid card for this trip, or you can buy JR Kansai Area pass one day (note that this pass is not valid for non-JR trains).
