Before I went to Japan I read about the Shinkansen and was fascinated by the technology. When I rode the Shinkansen I was amazed how fast we were traveling even though it didn't feel as fast. Love these videos! Thank you so much Rion! Saving these videos for my future trips!

Hey Rion! Fun to see the Namba Station adventure - we stayed near there on our trip last Summer. The plaza in your opening shot was under construction then! There are lockers inside the station that are cheaper and use just IC card! There is also a Japan Tourism center inside that is a great place to stop and get any help you need.

Eating ekiben on the Shinkansen was one of my favorite experiences 😊 Excited for summer for so many reasons 😆 Let’s go! ✈️✨

Final Osaka review before leaving for Tokyo was fun to watch. It is easy to imagine these places to be more crowded again during the Golden week. The Shinkansen ride while enjoying an ekiban after a longer time made the difference. In addition to that a wage but still visible Mt. Fuji quite nice. By the way your respective video is close to 100 000 views. Congrats for that! No wonder that the ekiban was not enough for the lion appetite, so the Tokyo station snack plus beer was of a great help. I presume thst during the Golden week a lot of inhabitants of Tokyo will leave but other people from other parts of Japan may be visiting Tokyo and mix with the inbound travalers. Let's see what this clash will look like. GAAOO..

Dotonbori’s awesome! 🤩 The Osaka Expo mascot looks to me like a mix of the Cookie Monster and Elmo from Sesame Street. I can see why it can be scary but I think it’s also cute. 😆 Great view of Mt Fuji! 🏔️

I hope to try Takosen one day during a future trip in Osaka. Looks so good and easy on the wallet. Always enjoy the views during the Shinkansen ride. Maaybe I'm weird, but I think the Osaka Expo mascot looks cute and endearing ❤😂 Thanks for the tips and hard work 😊

I know from watching other videos that during Golden Week the cost of transportation and hotels go up. Plus huge number of people traveling into the countryside to see their parents and ancestors villages to pray.

Thanks Rion! We just got back from our Japan trip and had a great time. If you are able, can you explain a bit more why you have to change the date on the discount Shinkansen ticket? Do discount tickets come without a date?
@RionIshida6 ай бұрын
They have original date when they issued, so we need to change the date for the day we use. We only can do it once and that’s also the reason why it’s cheaper!

Thanks Rion once again! From your video, when I am on Shinkansen, if I want to view Mt Fuji from Osaka to Tokyo, I have to reserve a left window seat. Likewise, if I want to view Mt Fuji from Tokyo to Osaka, I have to reserve a right window seat, right? Eager to see how busy the streets will be during the Golden Week. Take care Rion, Gaoooo...!!

Rion …please can you explain the discounted tickets to me? I see you every time swapping the date. But I don’t understand why they let you swap the date if you’ve bought a ticket for the wrong day? Are the discounted tickets not for that day? (I would expect them to be unsold tickets for that day?)

It’s originally the bulk ticket, They have original date when they issued the ticket, so we need to change the date for the day we use. We only can do it once and that’s also the reason why it’s cheaper!
