Not on Budget? Buy Kansai Thru Pass 2008/10/28 20:02
If you're not travelling on a strict budget, better buy the Kansai Thru Pass. You could use any available transport. However if you're on a budget, perhaps a combination of 1 day bus or train ticket would work.
I myself will be using the 2 days Kansai Thru Pass for my trip around Kyoto, then the JR West Pass for trip from Kyoto to Fushimi Inari Shrine & Himeji.

1 day JR West Pass for Himeji

ICOCA Smart Card or Surutto Kansai Prepaid Card for round trip Osaka - Kyoto and 1 day bus pass within Kyoto

ICOCA Smart Card or Surutto Kansai Prepaid Card for Nara

Note that Kansai Thru Pass is not valid for JR but Subways and Private Railways in Kansai Region.
