Hello! There are some space behind certain back row seats and also in the luggage compartment to store the luggage. The overhead space is small, so try not to put a big luggage 😉
We are glad you enjoyed the video! You can book the seats anytime at the JR machine at the train stations (as long as there are available seats so perhaps better to book earlier if you know your schedule)
thanks for the great video and informations, may i know when is the exact date this video taken? because we're planning to go there around mid of december 2024 and using the JR Hokuriku arch pass (but we start from osaka), my son hoping for first snow experience, and i'm planning to go to nagano on 18th Dec, is there gonna be snow? thanks before, stay blessed
Hello! This was taken during the 3rd week of Dec 2023 :) there was a little bit of snow at Nagano station and more up the mountains when we went to see snow monkeys! All the best to you in chasing snow! ❄️
hi. may i asked. when you going to ainokura village. did you need to reserve the bus the day before. or that bus would always be ready ? hope you could tell me. thank you in advance.
Hi sugaica, this is the World Heritage Bus and it runs with a daily schedule that can be found online :) there is also a tourist information centre at Shin-Takaoka JR station where you can get the bus timings.
@@joandsee is it way more better to reserve the seat from the world heritage bus website or buying on the spot at bus counter? hope you could givin the best advice for me. thank you in advance.
Hey could you please tell me if you used the hokuriku pass for the local trains other than shinkansen like in nagano to see snow monkey
Yes we did. There are certain local trains included in the pass. Do check out the JR website for details :)
Hi there! May I know, where did you put your luggage in shinkansen? Did you bring large luggage but still under 160cm total dimensions?
Is it possible for me to put a large luggage in the overhead compartment?

Thanks for this helpful video! Once I get the pass, do I book all the trains at a machine or JR ?

@@joandsee thanks a lot... keep making memories of great videos.. 😇🙏🏻
Where do you store your large luggage on these trains?
There are luggage racks! If those are taken, sometimes we put it behind the last row of the seats!

@sugaica When we went in December, it was relatively empty and the bus came on time. We cannot advise about reservations because we didnt try😅
@@joandsee aaaa i see. thank you. your information already helped me alot. i appreciate it. have a good day there.
Hello sir is the hokuriku pass unlimted to all JR lines also? Thanks
Not all JR. Do visit the hokuriku website for more details:) www.westjr.co.jp/global/en/ticket/hokuriku-arch-pass/
@@joandseethanks for the feedback sir. But i can travel to osaka from tokyo and vice versa with the pass right sir? thanks in advance
may I know which month is it? nov/december?
We went during mid December :)
When did you travel, looks cold
Hi Cynthia, we travelled in Dec 2023 :)
could you share how many days you spent on each location? thank you!
4 nights in Tokyo, 1 night in ryokan in Nagano, 2 nights in Toyama, 3 nights in Kyoto, 3 nights in Osaka. Hope this helps :)
Why not prefer using plane? Osaka-tokyo it is almost 4x cheaper
We wanted to explore other parts of Japan along the way :)
Is there a problem because I didn't hear you talk?
There is no problem. We narrate our adventures through the subtitles :)
