Osaka to Shanghai ferry trip on the MS Su Zhou Hao 

Would have liked to see the cabin and food service.

As A sea travel vlogger, you should include the area of accommodation in your video so that your audience will know what is inside and what to do inside when you are on board that vessel. 🚢⚓ ~Spread the Love ❤

I took this ferry in Feb 2015, same route. I chose the shared (male) sleeping room and pilled up on ramen noodles before departure. Great experience overall! Would recommend in a heartbeat!

Looks like a great trip! I would have wanted to see your cabin as well as any other facilities used by passengers. The scenery was fascinating, but I had hoped to see more of the onboard activity as well.

Very nice trip, I didn't know many of those areas of the inland sea of Japan, in fact I hadn't noticed that they had that area of water between the islands. It has been very interesting and beautiful, thank you very much for publishing it

Very grateful for your wonderfully clear, inclusive, and informative ferry runs. Thank you thank you thank you!

Beautiful footage. Strong editing and production with interesting information. 👍👍👍

Shodo-Island is known for its olives and indeed it's nickname is 'Olive Island'. Hence the 'Olive Line' ferries that shuttle between it and Honshu/Shikoku.

A nice and clear presentation; congratulations! Thanks for sharing.

Done this boat twice, once in 1993 and the next in 2000. Good times, everybody was puking and I was the only Gwailo first time. Shanghai had donkeys and carts lol. The trip up from the sea to Shanghai was spectactular.

Very educational. On-line booking shows fares from Shanghai to Osaka are about half the fares from Osaka to Shanghai.

excellent and very informative video!i enjoyed this very much,keep em coming!

very beautiful vedio.really enjoyed.thank you very much.please send some more vedios like this

You're videos are awesome, I don't normally watch this sort of thing but I really like watching these ferry journeys 🤣🤷‍♂️ guess its my new thing lol

Thank you for this , was pretty cool , i was goign to ask from japan to busan ferry and you already covered that , thank you so much

your best video so far. All ways look forward to your uploads

This is a really great trip. I took the other vessel on this routing, the Xin Jian Zhen, going the same way because its outdoor deck wraps around and permits unobstructed views up front. Highly recommended. (Btw, Shanghai now has 17 lines in operation and more under construction.)

Nice to see where all the stuff i buy on ebay comes from

Fantastic trip! Great video! Thanks for sharing! Greetings from Gothenburg.

Thank You for a very informative and realistic enjoyable film ,I feel that I am on this boat journey with you and the illustrations you added were perfect !

Incredible. Like London in day days of Empire. The centre of international trade today. Great video. All those ships ...

That was excellent Diesel, thanks for posting this video.

Fascinating! We went to Shanghai last year but only for one day, so we barely scratched the surface. We also called at Osaka and were able to get the Shin-ko-San to Kyoto. Thank you for uploading this.

Great video! ... so informative and well recorded ... two thumbs up!

Wonderful video thanks it was very educational.

Nice video. Very informative. How much was the cost of the ticket on the ferry? I'd appreciate hearing more details about the type of ticket, etc., as I might consider taking this ferry someday.

Would have liked to see more of the inside of the Ship!

Another fascinating upload,thanks for your time,its much appreciated 👍👍

New subscriber. I love to take ferry rides. Back before I retired I often went of the Cape May - Lewes ferry that went from New Jersey to Maryland.

Another great trip report! Thank you for taking us on that journey with you! 👍 Bests Chris

Very comprehensive briefing... I am also planning similar route from Shanghai > Osaka > Maizuru > Ortua too. Thank you for your information Compared to Japanese domestic ferry, the vessel is below the standard (no Onsen on deck / food and catering choices). Anyway it still a great experience

Great video. Thanks for sharing this video 👍🏻

Seems like there was only one passenger on the crossing. Not another sole to be seen on board! The only people seen were two fisherman in their trawler on the open sea and a few workers at the dock on arrival. A very good video all the same!

good job filming it, nice trip/cruise, how long did it take for the round trip? how often do you travel by ferry?

Excellent video, one of the best.

Excellent video. Thanks

AMAZING FOOTAGES. 110/100

Love it! Perfectly show us what the old-fashioned travel looks like though there are hundreds of flights between China and Japan daily :)

Fabulous video thank you for traveling me to exotic places. It seems you were the only pssenger

Extremely informative. Thank you so much! It’s (contraction of it is) so well produced and edited. Its (possessive to the video...so no apostrophe) producer is very professional. I look forward to seeing many more samples of your work. Best wishes, Rob.

this excursion will remember always in my sweet memories. I wish I see Japan and China.

Now this video was particularly interesting as this seemed less of ‘touristy’ ferry crossing. The food also looked really fresh and nutritional. You said that you went for the cheap accommodation but didn’t show what it was like. I hope that it was ok!

Very interesting...again I had no idea that a ferry ran between these ports. You have made me aware of a whole new method of getting around and I will look into taking some ferries next time I go to Europe...thanks

Beautiful trip Beautiful information Thanks for sharing

Excellent video. I enjoyed it very much. So interesting. Thank you.

Just found your channel today and I must say I am surprised how much I enjoyed it having seen quite a bit of your content today (lockdown!). To be honest my usual transport channels involve air travel (Paul Lucas) and trains (Geoff Marshall)..... a lot of trains! My only sea travel experience is short ferry crossings (Swansea - Cork /, Straenraar, / Belfast, Dover / Calais, and Plymouth / Santander). Your channel has opened my eyes to new adventures when this damn pandemic is over. Interesting to see your downloaded RU-vid content for downtime, Astrophysics is my field. Have subscribed and liked.

Such an enjoyable video. Wonderful scenery, even though the weather wasn't at its best. Fabulous to see. Thank you for posting. Cheers from Australia!

Brilliant video....Thank you for sharing.

This is an awesome trip I want to do now. Looks fun. The video was awsome

Very informative. Are there any cabin on the ship? What is a price for the trip you made?

i did it in 2009 the other way around great trip.

Another great video. Where you the only passenger? Looked very quiet onboard.

Very good, relaxed video. Thank you ! 🇳🇱

Thank You for uploading

I almost took a ferry from North Kyoto prefecture to Hokkaido, but I wasn't impressed with the accommodations, so I ended up flying from Kansai International to New Chitose. I was hoping to see what the sleeping place looked like.

Enjoyed this vid 👍

as good as actually being there, thanks..

This was truly fascinating. You had me salivating, wishing I was a fellow traveller. Not many pax, by the look of things? Keep up the good work.

Greetings from Brunei Just came across your video. Very nice trip video. The price of the meal was not too bad at ¥500. Wish the pandemic is over soon, and we will be able to make the same trip.

Magnificent view from osaka to shanghai.

Wow a Japanese built ferry constructed in 1992 that is flagged and registered in China sailing from Kobe to Shanghai carrying passengers and freight.

Wow.. Happy journey.

Pls include your accomodation, interior.of.ship in ur videos.

You're work is really beautiful. Thank you!

Nicely done 👍

Narratively very well.

tks

Thanks for sharing such a nice video.

Extremely informative and well edited video! My hats off to you.

i have 594 days at sea LB OS Chef i been to Sasebo thank you for posting please keep them coming to Fair winds Following Seas

Thanks for the video! I will be doing this trip early next month and can't wait to get on board!

Nice. As a master I crossed the Shimonoseki straits many times, the first one with a pilot, the others by myself and can tell you when the tidal curent is at it's maximum, you are in for something........

The port of London used to look like that until decimalisation. When the rest of the wold worked out how much the English were charging they went elsewhere.

I was hoping to see the cheapest accommodation.

Very interesting， as interesting as watching paint dry.

Very NICE video, wish there could have been some engine room shots.

Fascinating trip. Thanks for sharing with us.

Am enjoying all your Asia videos, this one was so informative and interesting. Come and visit Southeast Asia some time ... visit Singapore and the port.

Thanks for your sharing

Absolutely incredible. 2 thumbs up if I could. Thank you. Do you have a sleeping cabin on these long trips?

I'm a retired Marine Cargo Specialist (Before that I retired fm The US Coast Guard)....Worked moving military cargo (loading/unloading) fm the port of Jacksonville, Fl

Good old time

amazing

thank you, fascinating and informative.

Oh man, the food on the ferry looks delicous and I like Tsingtao beer.

Hi, wonderful, astonishing, amazing !

This is a great geography lesson. Fascinating! Thanks.

Thank you very interesting. It would have been better if the weather had been a little brighter. Surprised at the amount of traffic - are there many ship/ship collisions?

Very good vid !!!!

most people would fly over. so many flights from osaka

Me: terrified of deep waters and open sea... Also me: I want to travel around Japan by ferry and also take ferry to China and South Korea from Japan 😳 I live in Sweden and haven’t even been on a ferry at all since 2010 when I went over with the 15-20 minute long ferry ride between Helsingborg and Helsingør. After the pandemic I’d really like to go Gothenburg-Kiel as I live close to Gothenburg so it’s rather accessible for me to go on such a trip, I’d also really like to go Stockholm-Helsinki and maybe also Tallin. Trelleborg to Poland could be a nice trip as well. I do need to try to get past my fear of open sea... I guess I’m just traumatized by seeing the news of the Ms Estonia disaster when I was very young (I was about to turn 9)... Only time I’ve been on a ferry for an extended period of time (as in overnight) was when I went with DFDS from Gothenburg to Newcastle in 2006, sadly that was the last summer of that route, the ferry for Newcastle now leaves from Stavanger in Norway which is very far away unfortunately. It was a very enjoyable trip though, Gothenburg to Newcastle and back again, took about 25 hours or so each way. Also really nice to see Shanghai from the water! I’ve only seen it from land or air. My ex husband is actually originally from Suzhou so I went there on vacation a few times with him so we could spend time with his family too. I loved spending time in China! It’s such an amazingly beautiful country and both Shanghai and Suzhou are both fascinating and beautiful cities to visit. Suzhou felt like home for me whenever I went there

I want to see Osaka and Tokyo soon. Just came back from 2 weeks in China in Shanghai and Beijing. Shanghai is amazing in its own unique way. Meanwhile Beijing is China proper no doubt, and more my fav hate to say lol.

Although the meals looked good,I don’t think you would gain much if any weight if that was your diet for any length of time. Interesting video and I agree a view of the accommodations would have been nice. Thank you for the experience, Edward

Another interesting video but the constant grey skies are a bit depressing !

A good video very interesting you do not need all that talking like on some channels , every thing that you needed to know was written on the screen. Yes a good video i liked it.

Great video, I plan to do this trip one day . Thanks

Very enjoyable video, thanks for sharing.

GREAT IDEAS FOR TRAVEL. THANK YOU

you got another Subscriber for your fine and entertaining Video. greetings from germany :)
