Directions & Transportation

DIRECTIONS BY PUBLIC TRANSPORT OR TAXI

We highly recommend that you utilize public transportation, as SOIS is unable to accommodate parking for cars, vans or buses.

DIRECTIONS

By public transport from central Osaka

From either of these stations, then take either bus or taxi as detailed below.

It takes approximately 25 minutes from Senri Chuo and 15 minutes from Kita Senri to Senri and Osaka International Schools.

Train timetables

  • Search in English from Hyperdia (not a great interface, but accurate and powerful - don't include spaces in station names when searching, just the first few characters of name is enough to start).
  • Jorudan (English/Japanese) offers a nicer look, but isn't quite as powerful in its search features.
