@tburt50_ 6 месяцев назад

I feel like you miss so much riding the Shinkansen. Everything is a blur because you're traveling so fast. I've rented a car the last 2 times I was there and I'm so glad I did. I'm planning to drive from Tokyo to Nagoya and Kyoto, and then drive back 6 days later. My experience is you see so much more driving. If you have the time, try to skip the toll roads and you'll experience the most scenic views.

@KenshoQuest 6 месяцев назад

Hi, thanks for sharing your experiences! We also like to drive when we have time. It is another great way to see Japan. We'll make a video at some point about renting a car in Japan :)

@FluffyBunny9002 5 месяцев назад

I'm just going to assume my American drivers license is no good in Japan 😅

@tburt50_ 5 месяцев назад

All you need is an international driving permit, and it's really easy to get from AAA. I had them take my picture, and I think it was around $35. It's good for a year, and you can select the date you want it to start. I was able to use my last permit twice in the last year. I recommend watching some of the driving in Japan videos because some things are a different, like their stop signs are a triangle. The most confusing thing to me was the paid parking, which I think I've finally figured out. Rental cars are much more expensive than in the US, but I think it's well worth the experience. I'm already planning a 9 day drive from Tokyo to Nagoya, Kyoto, Osaka, and Yokohama in a few months.

Is there a taxi service that will be available around 3 AM that will take us from our hotel in Osaka to Kobe Airport. Thank you for these amazing videos! They have been very helpful in planning out!

Hi, so glad to know that our videos have been helpful for your trip! You shouldn't have a problem getting a taxi as long as you book one in advance. I suggest you ask your hotel to book one for you. There will be a surcharge since you will be traveling off hours, around 20%. Have a great trip and let us know if you have further questions.

What’s the luggage situation when riding the Shinkansen? Great channel and videos!

@KenshoQuest 6 месяцев назад

Hi, if you are taking the Tokaido shinkansen, which is trains from Tokyo south onwards to Fukuoka then the max size ( L +W+D) is 160cm and max weight of 30Kg. We have a series of videos on riding shinkansens. this video goes over the rules: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TQYemOXavAA.htmlsi=eXOm-rFNYiM4CJ1m

@fabianfrimpong480 5 месяцев назад

Hi, thanks for the video! Super helpful. I'll be flying to Osaka and then day trips to Kyoto/Nara, and then seeing Tokyo for some days before returning back to Osaka. What trains would you recommend? I hear the Hokuriku pass is also good for this journey. Or do you recommend just buying individual tickets : Osaka > Kyoto (individual) / Kyoto > Tokyo (shincansen) Tokyo > Osaka (shincansen)?

@KenshoQuest 5 месяцев назад

Hi, the Hokuriku Arch Pass is a great option only if you plan to visit the Hokuriku Area, such as Kanazawa, Nagano, Fukui and others. Otherwise, if you just want to get to Tokyo you will save a lot if purchasing individual shinkansen tickets. I recommend purchasing single journey tickets on the Tokaido Shinkansen as you have mentioned. You can buy individual shinkansen tickets on klook ( aff link ): geni.us/shinkansen We have an overview video of the Hokuriku Arch Pass here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Z_BlVF-h_xk.html

Hi, I've been watching your videos and I find it very helpful in planning our first time trip to Japan. We plan to travel this coming September 2024. We'll fly from LAX to KIX then stay in Kyoto for 3 days, then 2 days in Osaka, 3 days in Tokyo and back to Osaka. I would like to ask your opinion if our itinerary sounds feasible. Thank you so much in advance and goodluck to your channel.

@KenshoQuest Месяц назад

Hi, yes, absolutely doable. In fact, many do this exact itinerary. The most important factor is to plan extra time, as it always takes longer than you plan due to a number of factors such as large crowds which slows everything down and transportation within cities usually takes longer as well. Definitely take the Tokaido Shinkansen to Tokyo and back.

@KenshoQuest 3 месяца назад

Hi, yes the Tokaido shinkansen which travels from Tokyo to Kyoto/Osaka does stop in Nagoya. I recommend that you watch this video as it will help determine whether or not the whole JR Pass will be worth it for your itinerary as you will be able to calculate based on places you want to stop including Nagoya. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hsrZpVYH-ls.html&lc=Ugwubd35_dtgBYS7JOl4AaABAg

@user-pv6sd7np2w 6 месяцев назад

Great videos! Precise advice and helpful tips. I have a couple questions please: Loaded digital SUICA card on my iPhone Wallet and preloaded some yen to it to avoid carrying too much cash. I know that one cannot use SUICA card to ride the Shinkansen; but wanted to know if one can use the SUICA to purchase the tickets (for Shinkansen)? Also, as our cases are less then 160, do I need to reserve seats? If not, we have them with us at the unreserved seats?

@KenshoQuest 6 месяцев назад

Hi, so glad to know our videos are helpful :) Yes, you can use your SUICA to purchase shinkanse tickets but it is a bit complicated as you will need to purchase a base fare as well as the super limited express ticket (shinkansen). You do not need to reserve special seats since your luggage is under weight. And yes, you can keep with your at your seat or above. If you are riding the Tokaido/Sanyo/Kyushu shinkansens there are no luggage racks unless reserved.

@stevefriedman9599 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for such an informative video! We are going to Japan in April for the first time (of many to come) and am trying to compare getting a JR pass vs individual tickets. We want to to travel on SHINKANSEN NOZOMI Green car or similar. Our trip includes: Tokyo - Kyoto, day trip to Nara & Kobe, Kyoto to Hakone then back to Tokyo. Do you know of any websites that help with cost comparisons?

@AndrewWilliams-hq2qz 5 месяцев назад

We're doing a similar route in April too. Interested in this

@KenshoQuest 5 месяцев назад

Hi, this is the most popular route and with the current price of the JR Pass we don't recommend it to anyone unless convenience and flexibility is your top priority. The JR Pass costs significantly more than purchasing individual shinkansen tickets and if you want to ride the Nozomi there is an extra fee. Also, the Nozomi and Green car, all your seats need to be reserved so take that into consideration as well. For the most accurate price calculations please check out the JR East reservation site, you will need to make an account first: www.jreast.co.jp/multi/en/ For your route purchasing individual shinkansen tickets in conjunction with an IC card and possibly a regional pass will serve you well. You might find this video helpful: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7ejmnpcFFJg.html We will make a video on calculating costs of trains as this is the big question that everyone wants to know :)

@anhluu64 4 месяца назад

Hi, Thank you for this super helpful video. We'll be doing Kyoto and Osaka and back to Tokyo to fly home. Can we use the Suica card for the Haruka express from Kansai to Kyoto and if we need to book in advance? We'll be flying straight to Osaka after landing in Narita.

@KenshoQuest 3 месяца назад

HI, so glad the video is helpful! You might be able to use the SUICA for the base fare but you will still need to purchase the express portion of the fare. Therefore, it is much easier to just purchase the Haruka Express separately from either the ticketing machine or at the office. The office is easiest and they will help you choose your reserved seats. No need to book in advance.

@KenshoQuest 5 месяцев назад

HI @@user-vw2fd8fe9e , you will need to purchase one for each person 6 and older. The reason each person needs their own card is because once a person uses a card to enter a train platform it is expected to also leave the gate, so each card is assigned to one person.

@KenshoQuest 3 месяца назад

Hi, yes Shinagawa is the right choice. Expect an hour to clear immigration and customs if you have prefilled all the entry forms. You might be riding during peak hours so you might want to reserve in advance. For reference, I just rode that route last week at 15:30 and there were available seats in nonreserved.

Gracias! For your Tokyo stay you might consider getting the Tokyo Wide Pass. This pass will cover transportation to Mt Fuji Kawaguchiko station as well as local transportation on JR lines within Tokyo and surrounding areas. Or, you can also get a SUICA or PASMO IC card for use on all trains JR and non JR lines within the Tokyo area. You can charge your IC card when it runs low at the stations. (aff link ) geni.us/tokyowidepass For your trip to Kyoto/Osaka/Nara you can purchase right before your trip. But if you are traveling during a holiday or peak hours then consider buying in advance to ensure you will have a seat. Otherwise, it might be standing room only.

Once again thanks so much!!! Amazing info appreciated! Never heard about that local Tokio option before.. Only pasmo and suica which seems to have no difference then ... We are going there from May 9th to 21st right after golden week on purpose to avoid crowds so will follow your advise. Pura vida!!!

Is the JR pass still worth it if: Tokyo - 2 days Kanazawa -1 day Takayama - 1 day Kyoto - 3 days Nara - 1/2 day Osaka - 3 days Tokyo

You might want to consider the Hokuriku Arch Pass for that route. Here’s our video about it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Z_BlVF-h_xk.htmlsi=Z5A1cFsDjsfU7ZbD

Thank you for your quick response. I do need some clarifications. 1. When should we purchase the pass? Three weeks before we go to Japan? How fast they deliver the exchange order to a house? 2. Since we are planning to stay in Tokyo for the first two days, can we activate the jr pass on the third day? 3. We are planning to visit for a day to Kamakura and yokohama on the 2nd day and back to Tokyo. Does the pass cover these lines? Or better to use the suica? Thank you very much for your help.

@@animegirl13x 1. Three weeks. before your trip is a good time. It takes around 5 days to receive the Exchange Order. 2. Yes, when you swap the Exchange Order for the actual pass you can set the activation date. 3. No, I don't think Kamakura or Yokohama are covered by the Hokuriku Arch Pass. You could use an IC card. There's a pass for visiting Kamakura, but it doesn't cover Yokohama: www.odakyu.jp/english/passes/enoshima_kamakura/

Hi, yes if you purchased reserved seats then once you get your tickets you can change your seats to get them together as long as they are available. You can do this from the ticket machine or from the ticket office
