Thanks guys! I've just watched all your Japan vlogs - I'm heading back in spring for my 6th trip, and you've given me some great ideas on new things to see. I really enjoyed following your travels!
Thank you so much for your kind words! Hope you have an awesome time when you go n back to Japan!!
素晴らしいですね😊日本🇯🇵から
ありがとうございます！🙏🏼✨
Amazing ...
Thank you for watching! 🙏🏼☺️
Was this late March? Mt Yoshino looks stunning.
Hey! Mt Yoshino we went the middle of the first week of April! It looked fantastic but the cherry blossoms were already off their peak! So maybe a week earlier (last of week of March) would have been the perfect time to go! Thanks for watching!!
Hi Rafael, that you for your video. you went to so many places in 16 days..which was the most memorable part for you?
Hi! That’s a tough question. If I had to say the most memorable part was the stay at Hakone Ryokan. The dinner and food was delicious and the service and whole experience was 10/10. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you for answering me, Rafael! We went to Hakone in May this year and it was wonderful!We’re thinking of going back to Japan next year. Still considering where to visit. Do you think Kanazawa, shirakawago are good places to visit?
Definitely Hokkaido! ^^
@@Djl472Kanazawa and Shirakawago are definitely worth it! Thinking back I miss their relaxed vibes the most! So sorry for the late reply. 🙏🏼
@@Chris-oe4bvI 100% agree!!
Hello! This is a great video! Always been interested in Shirakawago. When would be the best time for peak cherry blossoms there? Thanks!
Hello! thank you sooo much for watching! Appreciate the support and subbing! We visited April 8th, 2023 and as you can see in the video, the sakura trees looked pretty full! The only downside was the rain/cold. So i rec around the same days! Good luck!
Hi! How can I find affordable machiya for rent please? I am planning a Japan trip in November with the family and ryokan and machiyas are really of interest to us 😁👍. Thank you!
@@jd5787 a lot of hotel sites have rentals like Machiya listings. Sites like Agoda or booking
@@RYxTimes thanks. Booking has a "entire apartment" filter. Didn't see machiya yet. Perhaps also because I was on mobile 😁. Thanks! 👍👍 BTW, great video!
@@jd5787 Yeah! sometimes its tricky because they dont show unless you're in map view and are scrolling over an area. like they disappear and appear. lol We linked where we stayed in the description 😉
Hi thanks for the great and really informative video. Excellent. We are going next month and would appreciate it if you could give us details of the house you booked there. Looks amazing. Thanks. Warwick
Thank you! Its called Ryu-TABI-NE! They offer different houses throughout Kanazawa. You can book directly or through 3rd party hotels website like us. Either way, you pick up "keys" at their "Central office."
Hi may I know best way to get around Kanazawa? Thanks:)
Hi! Best way is by bus! Purchase 1 day or more bus pass from Kanazawa station and take the loop bus to major sight seeing spots 🙌🏼✨
What company did you use to book the house?
its called the Ryu Tabi-Ne. You can book directly or via hotel site.
