Both guarantee queue-free access.

Step by Step

Dive first into the exciting evolution of Japanese railways at the Kyoto Railway Museum. Walk through galleries filled with century-old locomotives, luxury carriages and pioneering artefacts. You can climb aboard historic trains, watch track switching demonstrations and learn about the importance of the train in Japan's modernisation.

Next, head to the Kyoto Aquarium, a modern space dedicated to local and international aquatic life. Stroll through its themed areas and see everything from colourful tropical fish to sea turtles, playful otters and Antarctic penguins. Don't miss the feeding shows and conservation talks.

With your combo pass, make the most of the day without rushing. Plan your visits with the timetable guide you will receive after purchase and leave time to enjoy each exhibit at your leisure. Both centres are designed to make the tour smooth and comfortable.

Although the Kyoto Railway Museum and the Aquarium have interactive signage in English, you can opt for a private or audio-guided tour if you want to delve into lesser-known details and anecdotes.

    The crowds were large on public holidays, but with queue-free access we got into both of them quickly.

    The QRs worked first time. Simple organisation: museum in the morning, aquarium in the afternoon.

    I loved the mix of railway history and sea life in one pass. Practical and clear.

    With children: alternating museum and aquarium avoids fatigue. Accessible in both, without barriers.
