We spent HOW MUCH on our 6-day Tohoku Tour?!

[@danieldupont3060]

thanks for the info. I will skip the winter trip. Where I am from we get 3 metres of snow a year. I am going in all small town trip this fall for about 2 months, starting in Hokkaido, so I have to be really careful with my budget

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Fall for me is the best time to come to Japan! :) the weather is beautiful and you don’t have to pack too many layers! Awww man a 2 month trip sounds exciting! Super stoked for you!

[@rajarajeshwaran92]

Wow😲!!!, I really enjoy the video. Very informative and useful, it really helpful to schedule my trip. Thanks

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Awww thank you so much, Rajesh! I'm glad I was able to help and I really appreciate you watching this video! Thank you so much! :)

I'm making my first trip to Japan at the end of January. I'm going to Sapporo for the snow festival/skiing, and originally was going to fly to Aomori prefecture, then take rail to Morioka, then to Sendai But I realized that even fairly good public transport has limits when you add in rural and winter factors. And the big ticket items I wanted to see are evening events, which adds on even more difficulties (Hirosaki snow sakura, Lake Towada Winter Story). So I nixxed the Aomori and Morioka components, but I'll still go to Sendai.

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Oh wow! How lovely! I heard Hokkaido in general is amazing for skiing as the snow is like powder! ✨ It does get difficult when you add in rural and winter factors, but we didn’t have much trouble going around! Enjoy your trip and I hope you have a wonderful time in Japan ❤️

[@Vanillasundaty]

I think I will follows some of your trip in this spring. I think JR-East will save a lots shinkansen fee.

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Awesome! Thank you so so much! :) shinkansen do get pretty expensive!

[@enzerunoinnen]

Definitely saving this! I'm planning to tour around Tohoku as well this year, but I'll probably be starting from Fukushima then go counter clockwise. Thanks for giving us an idea around how much we'd spent for this king of trip!^^

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Awww yey! Glad that we could help! :) I loooove tohoku and so happy you’re going to tour the area! It’s going to be amazing!

[@AlexTheGamer97]

Thank you for putting together this infographic if you're the one who made it, and the video! It will be incredibly helpful. I'm planning to do this trip starting tomorrow. Thanks :)

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Thank you so much for watching my video! ❤️ I really appreciate it! I haven’t heard of anyone downloading the infographic that I made so thank you so much! ☺️ enjoy your trip! I hope you love it!

[@haresh882008]

Love Nigata the kikisake bansho sake vending machine! It’s so cheap Awesome travel adventurers thank you sharing this with us. Priceless!

[@whatchuHANAdo]

I know you guys love sake! You should definitely go! And Kikizake bansho is adjacent to Niigata Station! So easy to go to! So excited for you to come here!

[@hyrulegamer9966]

Great video! I'm planning on travelling around Tohoku this december with local trains, your video will be a great reference for me!

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Awesome!!! Tohoku is so underrated! So cool you’re going to go there! ☺️

[@allencook8018]

That's the way to do it! Travel smart, and 新幹線が大好きですよね！Sometimes you need to use the speed trains to get to where you need to go! This also proves that Japan doesn't have to be super expensive, either! Great job! おめでとうございます！

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Awww yey!!! Thank you always, Allen! We would have taken only local trains if the weather permitted but I was happy with taking the shinkansens! They're the best! When you come back here you definitely have to go on a trip!

[@allencook8018]

@@whatchuHANAdo You're welcome! Yes, I can understand what you mean by the weather regarding the local trains. I certainly hope to take a trip when I get back to Japan...hopefully sooner versus later!

Hello Hana, Thank you so much for such informative and super fun video!!!!

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Hello Dodje! Thank you for the nice words and thank you so much for watching the video! ❤️

[@noemiengo1341]

Thanks a lot for sharing your trip. It's is so useful for us because we are planning a similar trip. One question though : How did you deal with your luggage when you visited places between hotel check-ins ?

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Hi, Noemie! ☺️ we put them in lockers! Haha there are usually lockers around the station that go from 300-700yen. We only had one suitcase with us and it wasn’t big at all so that made it easier for us. Pack light if you can!

[@papagrimmy313]

Wow, must be nice to travel like that

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Yes! I’m pretty fortunate 🥹

[@Janderaletr]

Thanks for the video, really cool to see with prices and links to main places you guys went to!

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Thank you so much! We wanted to be able to help out in planning! Haha Are you planning on visiting Tohoku sometime soon? ☺️

[@Janderaletr]

I'm going to Japan in November actually, will be staying in Tokyo 3 weeks, then 5 day trips around Kanto, but we are going to Sendai for 1 night stay. My plan is next time to do a road trip Tohoku area :) so I got to pin some of the places you went to!@@whatchuHANAdo

[@davidsworld3603]

Very well done, and this is helpful for me in planning my own Tohoku trip. Will definitely subscribe, thanks!

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Thank you so much! ❤️ I’m so glad it will help! And thank you so much for subscribing! It means a lot. 🙏🏼

This was a great series! Thanks Guys! 👍

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Thank you sooo much! Our travel series don’t get as much love as the food videos so we really appreciate it! 🙏🏼

[@mike_smR]

I really enjoyed it! It was a different view of Japan and educational too 😊. Japans on our family list of places to travel so I will definitely refer back yo you video when we finally plan it.. thanks again and keep up the adventures! 👍

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Wow! Thank you so much! Yeyyy you guys should really come over here and enjoy! Next month, we’ll be going to maybe 4-5 more prefectures depending on how everything pans out. Another local train travel series! If your kids love dinosaurs, I’m going to the dinosaur prefecture in Japan! 🦖🦕

[@mike_smR]

That sounds awesome and yes he is a huge fan of trains and Dino’s.. double whammy.. lol. Cant wait!! Have a great day guys!!👍😊

[@whatchuHANAdo]

@@mike_smR Thank you again, Michael! Have a great day ahead too! :)

[@gvarph7212]

Great video, I will be doing similar Itinerary, except starting in Sendai and going the oposite direction. Also, I cannot find these tickets. Are they not availabel anymore?

[@whatchuHANAdo]

That’s great!! Tohoku is so underrated! I absolutely loved going around. :) I think the tickets have changed or they’ve removed it for a season. :(

[@josephinem9222]

Thank you for the lovely video. I m planning tovisit. Did you book the hotel in advance?

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Thank you for watching! :) for some hotels, we booked the day of, but for others we booked in advance! :)

[@josephinem9222]

I am very flattered by the quick reply. Hope to see the place beginning of October ❤

[@whatchuHANAdo]

@@josephinem9222 Super excited for you!! :)

[@martsee]

Hi Hannah. Did you consider Airbnb for your lodging? And why didn't u consider it? Lovely scenery but would probably stay longer if there are interesting places to visit per stop, since u there already. Probably consider fall or spring. Expensive? Yes, for us tourist. But for locals, probably a piece of cake.? 😁

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Hi! Nice to see you here! :) haha used to use Airbnb when I used to go to Japan as a tourist. For trips like this, hotels are more convenient since they are closer to major city stations. :) Airbnbs are priced almost the same when this close to major city stations…sometimes even more expensive! :) We treated this trip more like a little travel buffet and wanted to go see a little of every prefecture and then eventually go back to the ones we really liked. Our goal is to visit all the prefectures in Japan! Hahaha it’s not really a piece of cake! Lol we really save up for trips like this and only take it once or twice a year! :)

[@50ftbelow54]

Can you leave the link for your summer Tohoku trip here? Would love to watch it!

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Hello! :) We didn’t go to Tohoku for the summer travel, we went to from Tokyo to Nagasaki! Would you want to see that? :)

[@mediocreman2]

The Spanish accent pronunciation of the Japanese words is really interesting.

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Do I really have a Spanish accent?? 😳

[@agondokusumo-111]

What is the name of ticket again? I can't seem to open up the jr hokkaido link in the description. Thanks

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Hello! Hokkaido and East Japan Local Trains Pass was the name of the ticket but I can't seem to find it either on the JR Website. I am not completely sure if they've removed the pass. :( I will check again!

[@divyaprakashdubey1]

In which season you shoot this video..Plz let me know..

[@whatchuHANAdo]

We went around end of December to 1st week of January, so during winter! :)

[@roxanacretu2596]

The price was quite Okay!!

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Yes, not too bad at all! :)

[@shaharluxenburg4640]

Looks stunning! I know you consider the shinkansen kind of cheating, but if I have a jr pass do you think i can deduct the cost from your total? :P

[@whatchuHANAdo]

Oh yes absolutely! PLUS, you would be able to get around much much much faster! You’d see more places! ❤️ we only considered it cheating because we vowed only to take local trains since it’s cheaper! But I’d totally recommend getting a JR pass!
