Shinkansen Secret Tips, First Class Seat with Bento and Drink But Cheaper than Regular Seat

If you enjoy train ride and relaxing, there is a perfect way to enjoy Shinkansen! Although it's First Class seat (green seat) with 1 Free drink, it's cheaper than regular Shinkansen seat if you use Platt Kodama!
It will take longer time and you need to make reservation at lest a day before, but really comfortable! Hope this video can be a help for your next Japan trip!

tourist can buy JR rail pass. regular and green car. (green is $100 more per 7 days) but well worth it IMO , we reserved seats at the JR ticket office and there is always availability

[@watawatan0w]

The one shinkansen area (toukaidou one, i think) you can get a similar pass, but it's for people inside japan. It's like a 4 day allyoucanride pass for the one area.

[@joyboyvlogs1763]

About 2 months ago your video showed up in recommendation rest is history♥️i am glad and addicted to your content LOVE FROM INDIA🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

[@reach2prasanna]

Rion mate, I know you mean well posting these videos, but you're making us all jealous man. No place on earth like Japan. Thank you Rion.

[@alexstrolls801]

315 videos already!?!? Time flies when the content is this good :) Thank you Rion for the hard work. GAOOOOO!

[@kristinebacay3543]

Thanks to all the patreons for keeping this traveling possible! ❤️ This video is amazing. I must rewatch this days before my next trip to Japan!

[@Maple_Tachibana]

Japan is one of the few counties where commuting is more comfortable than owning a car lol.

[@VannieEats]

I went on the bullet train a few times when I visited Japan and it was such a great experience. Miss Japan so much!

[@RionIshida]

😉👍

[@AmidaNyorai48]

😀

[@stevendaniel8126]

You speak English much better than I speak Japanese. Excellent video! Thank you.......

[@dulapeep5609]

the thumbnail is really cutee, anyway thanks for the content let's keep walking let's go

[@ankitaburman5406]

It has become a ritual now to start the Saturday morning with Rion' s video ❤️❤️❤️

[@ramonamacabugao4836]

The fall of 2019 my daughter and I traveled to Japan visiting Osaka and Kyoto. It was a great visit that we would like to return again and explore more places. Wishing this pandemic and restrictions will be over soon. Enjoyed your videos.

[@frostiimoon]

iPhones running iOS 15 don’t need to download the Suica app as you can add the card directly from the Wallet App. Also the iPhone will prompt you to add a Suica card when you land in Japan. Anyone wanting to have a Suica card as a souvenir, you can buy a physical card and transfer it to your iPhone which will also add the card fee to the balance.

[@jonathanlee4305]

Love your passion! Japan is like my second home. I appreciate what you’re doing because your home and country are always amazing! And Osakans are too famous! See you soon sometime soon, especially when I can step out of my hotel room during layovers in Japan

[@arzahellcazanova7057]

It makes me smile every time I see u happy. It takes my stress away. Watching ur video makes my mood fully charged as well. Thank you so much for making me happy and satisfied. 😊

[@rosalee7517]

I just watched bullet train in 2021 Detective Conan movie yesterday, and now KZbin recommend this video and I get to see the actual bullet train in real world, it feel like KZbin know what I watch everyday, interesting.

[@rinthip]

Really miss Japan and eating bento on train. If the pandemic situation is getting better and I can travel to Japan again, I must try the bento that you’ve recommended.

[@MrPanzerDragoon]

Last country to visit before the pandemic hit was Japan back in the fall of 2019. Those bullet trains were so comfortable and fast! I WANT TO GO BACK IN GENERAL!!!!!

[@ReiwaMagi]

Episode SAIKOU (315). Thanks for the tips. Will be nice to use once we are able to enter again.

[@gtv6118]

Rode the Shinkansen once and I super love it!

[@RenerDeCastro]

I'm loving your topics regarding train travel. Not many bloggers and KZbinrs who go to or live in Japan fully explain or easily explain on how to do these sorts of things.

[@happyhuang9541]

The Shinkansen 🚄 is really cool 😎 ! time difference between Nozomi and Kodama Shinkansen is one hour , this time Rion used Platt Kodama Shinkansen from Osaka station to Tokyo in first class seats 💺, can relax in a clean and comfortable seat👍， yes! have to learn how to buy tickets 🤔👌👍. There are so many different kinds of bento options🤩, even the packaging is quite exquisite 🍱 , so nice can enjoy the scenery along the road while dining, it’s great and can shorten the travel time ⏳, Mount Fuji 🗻 is covered by beautiful clouds 😍☁️.

[@monkphat9113]

Thank you for making this video. The only bad part is that it makes me miss Japan even more and more! Can’t wait to see you, Japan!

[@jaminninte8464]

Great video RION! my wife and i always watch your videos everyday after work. very informative and it's like we are actually travelling with you. you always have this positive vibes on every video you have and it makes us want to watch more! keep it up and we will be with you until you reach 1M subs! hope we can visit Japan anytime soon!

[@tns-rox]

Great deal traveling First Class on the Shinkansen and having a great bento for lunch, too! What a beautiful day to travel. Arigatougozaimashita, Rion! 🚅

[@RionIshida]

It's my biiiiiiig pleasure😆

[@cardten]

Eki bento is part of any long distance train ride in Japan. Loving it too. Thanks for a great video.

[@chewie94116]

That is so cool- Bento box that heats up when you are ready to eat! (11:28). Also you are so funny, let me drink my beer with my breakfast, LOL.

[@tomas6179]

Quote from Rion: Not much taste, but I feel good 😅. Made me laugh for some reason 😅😅

[@cinemax4D]

Notification from your channel makes my day. Lots of love.🙂

[@purplebutterfly7257]

I’ve never seen that heat and eat pack before but it’s a good idea. The front of that bullet train looks like some sort of see creature. The scenery of the river and the bridge was really nice.

[@marywong4819]

I'm so glad that Japan's state of emergency is over. Hope COVID infection and hospitalisation rates stay low so that it's safe for travellers from abroad to visit Japan. I'm also looking forward to going to the Tohoku and Hokkaido areas next time but probably not when it's snowing.

[@amandakoh4419]

The Japanese bento always look so exquisite! (The maple leaf🍁 carrot is so pretty!🤗)

[@mekaylahvideos]

I always love watching your videos because it feels like were besties and im personally there on the trip with you :D keep doing you and posting amazing content 😁🙏🏻 edit: I also love how informing and educational your videos are. I've learnt a few words from you just because of this ♡

[@peterjake9621]

Hi Rion, Enjoyed the Video on the Shinkansen 🚅. The Bento looked delicious 😋 and the scenery was beautiful. Thanks for sharing this adventure. Looking forward to seeing more videos. Arigato and Happy Halloween 🎃.

[@dennistani1986]

Rion, thanks for the train tips. We will be visiting Sendai next month and plan on taking the train from Tokyo.

[@RionIshida]

😆👍

[@amandataebby]

I am 28 and would shamelessly get the Gudetama bento 😄😄 Japan has so many cute things. One day I will visit!

[@kimtran4737]

Great video Rion 👏I can’t wait to visit Japan again and eating the bento boxes whilst traveling in the Shinkansen 🥰🙏Take care & be safe, love from Melbourne, Australia 💖

[@Schrottkralle]

My wife and I once had a hot Bento on the Shinkansen. You have to keep in mind, that sometimes the smell might bother other people. And to be considerate of other people is very important in Japan. So if you are travelling on a fully booked train, I recommend a cold Bento.

[@ElizaHamilton1780]

Yeah, sure. Why are you lecturing to a Japanese guy about hot bentos on a Shinkansen? Why do you think you know better than him? Please advise.

[@marshmallow.fireside]

I’m really excited to watch this video Rion!! I hope you’re having a fun halloweekend 🎃

[@haddigangs]

Do you have family?

[@stoha2]

その弁当は美味しいそうですねー！食べたいです！富士山見えませんでした。残念ですね。5年ぐらい前に飛行機から富士山を見ました！最高です！マレーシアから

[@Saraseeksthompson0211]

Really great video Rion!

[@geerd1]

I remember I suggested you some months ago to do this kind of train ride again so l'm very pleased. Thank you very much for these wonderfull images ☺️

[@haggiem]

Can’t wait to get back to Japan to ride the Shinkansen... the lifeblood of your beautiful country.😊🙋‍♀️🙏

[@AmbientWalking]

Thanks again for another wonderful video. It's always so nice to spend time watching the world go by. : )

[@tiffanythanh2839]

おはようございます☀ 新幹線が大好きで懐かしいです！またお弁当もおいしいですね🍱 Rionさんの動画を見るとまた日本に行きたくなりますよ🤗

[@timmytwothumbs]

Everyone is always in a hurry, fast, fast, fast, makes your blood pressure go up and you miss so much. People who go fast don't want to see the sites, they just want to get there. Sure if you're on vacation and you want to ride the bullet train for the first time then ok. But then on the return trip take the slow train and relax. Slow down and enjoy the trip. Eat a bento, have a beer.

[@tanakacanuck2343]

The first time I took the Shinkansen I knew nothing about Ekiban, the different trains and the difference in prices. Took a little bit to learn. So good that you are putting out these videos so that everyone can have a great first experience!

[@janapokorna3142]

Thanks for this video, it seemed like a really comfortable trip! When I'm in Japan I will be definitely taking Shinkansen from Osaka so it was really helpful. And all the bento in that store looked soooo good!

[@catherinelay4163]

Another great video. Enjoyed it👍🏻 Thank you 😊

[@pinoytriptaiwan4252]

wow...love those train..i love Japan,,watching from Taiwan... (from Philippines),,keep safe

[@missVmilne]

Such a great vlog. Thank you for sharing your tips and experiences with such joyous enthusiam. I wish you every success with this superb channel and many more subscribers to support and appreciate you. Well done. Hello from London, England : - )

[@henrychew235]

Thanks for another good vlog. Missed riding on the shinkasen! I did use the kodama plat option before with a normal seat. Definitely worth it when you don't have a jr pass (used a kansai pass then but wanted to end journey in tokyo). Love Japan's heat packed bento, make for a good change compared to all the cold bento!

[@sneaks01]

Thank you for sharing!! I love watching you and your teachings!

[@limikocarriedo2289]

wow always providing beautiful experiences and interesting facts. Thank you so much!

[@MrTakoyaki1992]

I'm a simple man, I see Suntory premium malts, I like😍😍

[@jenny-pooh7443]

Japan is on my list for future travels. I just subscribed to your channel to get all the details on how to plan my trip 💖

[@AnnaRammel]

Thank you so much for the useful travel tips!

[@vhyleung]

I miss the marvelous scenery from shinkansen... thanks Rion for sharing the journey as always 👍👍

[@sinbatsiraseranant1241]

Great job on your videos Rion. Not only that your videos share your experience of your travel, they also teach and explain how to get around in Tokyo and where to go. Very useful Guide. Thank you. ps-Can't wait until Japan relax the travel restriction so that we can go back once again. Haven't been there since 2019.

[@Pixics]

Wow, that heat pack bento was so cool.

[@dzsisters8883]

that was so interesting to watch!!!

[@0896280504]

As always a nice clip and lovely review !! ❤

[@UrbCrafter]

Great episode Rion, cant wait for the next one Gaoooo...

[@CharlesTravels]

Thank you for taking us with you on your train journey, I really enjoyed watching it. I tried the Hippari Dakomeshi 3:20 in 2014 and still keep the ceramic pot 😁

[@nickwong2525]

Shin Osaka Station, brings back memories while i was there in 2018 and i miss taking Shinkansen so much! I still remember taking Nozomi Shinkansen to Hiroshima. I miss Tokyo a lot too!

[@ArthouseChannel]

Next time when i'am in Japan i wil try that food too, thank you Rion!!

[@johngelladuga9840]

watching from manila, thank you rion for bringing us with ur trip

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

Rio chan, great video I live in Japan and love this !!

[@mangeshbansal8409]

Thank you for the video.

[@cheryllim1714]

I went to Japan in 2017, really wish to be back soon after the pandemic!!

[@SnoogyWoogy]

Great video! Perk to living in more rural Canada, we do 3-4h trips (each way) as day trips. And that's crammed into a small car. When we traveled around Japan in regular seats on the trains even going from Hiroshima to Tokyo was nothing to us. I really wish there were ways to travel around Canada as comfortable as it is in Japan.

[@UKSimon4170]

Thank you for another great video. Visiting Japan is on my list of things I want to do in my life. Have a great Halloween Rion, take care and stay safe.

[@jiding7530]

Thank you Rion for showing us how to travel from Osaka to Tokyo via Shinkaisen and seats to choose to see Mount Fuji. I will do the same should i go Japan, hopefully next yr 🙏

[@WretchedOne]

So happy to see your channel grow so big now

[@besta7279]

[@mimib1142]

Thank you. Very informative

[@skate4blazers503]

persimmon leaf wrapped sushi is so good.

[@JoiReezyLise]

Super awesome 🤩

[@luckysui2460]

The bento set looks nice and colourful.

[@rosiehealy6144]

Your videos, I’m definitely, “Lovin it”. Thanks again.

[@harryfreeman07]

The views were beautiful 😍 perfect weather for a train journey. Sorry you didn’t get to see Mt Fuji, maybe he was shy that day 😂 Happy Halloween Rion have a great weekend! 🎃👻

[@sisterblissuk9253]

When I visit Japan next year , I will travel on shinkanzen to see mt Fuji ! Stay safe rion ❤️

[@jerriedenham2320]

Happy Halloween Rion, young ,an. Glad to see new video. Have a great weekend. “Let’s Gao”. ✋✋😄😃

In Singapore now, border are open to South Korea, Germany and Canada. Hopefully next will be Japan.

[@henihankam3457]

Hi...enjoy watching your video,:) cant wait for another

[@jlotrigo8535]

Was a beautiful day on your trip from Osaka to Tokyo, that bento was so tasty and you can miss the beer, thank's Ryon great video

[@rosealameda6634]

Great tip for foreign travelers like me. Thanks a lot.

[@brenttterry8259]

When is it going to open up for visitors? Been wanting to come see your county for years now! Love your content.

[@robertfujisaki5348]

Great video Rion! I wish that we had bullet trains in the US. Traveling is is so convenient and the ekibens are so tasty looking. The ekiben store was great with so many options! Nice video!

[@yunablu6241]

I like this guy...so chill...😄😄 new sub here...👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@warpcore1999]

rion rocks!

[@sakunocchi]

Was watching this vlog while eating and able to kanpai with Rion-san🤣 Kodama shinkansen looks good as well😳 Thank you for showing it as well👍

[@FutureCharlotte]

I love bullet trains in Japan and super fast I love your videos Rion ishida in Japan and the best part is the food 😋🇯🇵🚄 hopefully I make train videos.

[@mumfordalien1794]

Awesome video! Ekiben is one of my favorite subjects for Japanese KZbin videos, maybe a little weird. One day I will go and try myself.

[@ethanlim9736]

Thanks for the fun video and you make me feel like eating bento too. 🤤 And yes, please visit Hokkaido during winter and will love to see a video on Sapporo Snow Festival. 😍

[@michaelmurphy3186]

Now you just need to save up for "Gran Class."

[@aaalow7447]

I think for foreigner, JR Pass is definitely more worth it if you use a lot of shinkansen. I remember using JR Pass to go Nagoya Matsuri from Tokyo on a day trip and the next day go to Nikko. The only bad experience I have is that I have to cancel my premium hokutosei night train from hokkaido to tokyo because of snow storm and force to pay for shinkansen seat price the next day, and yet, was suspected by train staff of trying to cheat using JR Pass. Guess, trying to take full advantage of the JR Pass price by entering the station on the last day and exiting the next day, as suggested by internet at that time, increase the risk of this happening, even though it's within the rule.

[@arneltorrijos8245]

Very elegant train Rion very nice !

[@djohanlianto5511]

Great ...! Awesome.....! Hv a blessed lucky day! 🙏🙏🙏

[@SpartanTrigger]

Beautiful scenery, makes me miss living In Japan

[@nateindratula7553]

I miss Ekiben! And lucky you have 6 min to grab your beer! Cant wait to travel to Japan again.
