Cabin on the Alaska Marine Highway Bellingham WA to Skagway AK and White Pass & Yukon RR (Wed to Sunday) Much of the way is via the Inside Passage; an unending succession of interesting experiences and sights. Did much of it in 1985, would be fun to see it today. Not fancy (cafeteria food) but not roughing it by any means.-- Jerry (Margrete was my late beloved Norwegian Forest Cat.) --Jerry Pinkepank
I adore your father. He feels so calm and is such a gentleman. He always looks like he belongs on your adventures but I must say he looks especially at home on this train.

As a 13 year old American kid back in 1999, I was lucky enough to visit Aso, Japan through a sister city program. It forever changed my life and I dream of the day that I might be able to go back. Japan was a surreal experience and will always stand as the best trip I have ever had the pleasure of going on. The families that let me stay with them were so accommodating and I'll never forget them.
While your videos are always a treat to watch, they are infinitely more enjoyable when your mom, dad or Millie make an appearance - they're such lovely people, you are truly blessed Will
yesterday i walked home and under a railway bridge in Manchester i saw a couple of lads drinking pink champagne and eating caviar in slow motion. They were wearing "chinos" , while sitting outside their tent listening to gentle piano music, ......we became tired so we kicked off our "Tims", put on our p.j.'s and retired to our tent for a lovely relaxing sleep. In the morning, after the obligatory caffeine hit etc etc, we readied ourselves for the day. 👍
@@AlmostMonumental27 yes, the three of them are indeed amazing, however, the poster was commenting on how awesome, amazing, loving, respectful and fantastic Will is to treat his parent with such reverence .. as he does 🧡💛💚💙💜❤🧡💖💖💖

As a Japanese, I would like to welcome you and your dad, and feel glad as you could enjoy one of the most luxurious and well known train trp. In the future I hope to be on this train. In Kyushu district, there is another luxurious train called “A certain train” which realized a certain billionaire train fan’s dream and also the super express in Kyushu called Tsubame, so sleek design Shinkansen.

@ in terms of seeking adventure and the unknown it felt like stepping into an alternate reality. Everything has such purpose and is well maintained. Tokyo is the mostly densely populated city on earth and yet everyone does their bit to keep the place spotless. It’s not full of modern new cars as I expected (sure they exist but not where the kudos lies in their society) instead I saw thousands of 20/30 year old classics perfectly maintained. The infrastructure is so in harmony with its surroundings yet so functional. The people are I must admit as a Brit a little bit reserved for me to be able to grow an emotional bond with. I felt like a stranger, a visitor and nothing more. And yet that was ok, a little unusual but I sensed such a deep history beneath everything. Who would I be with my uncouth ways be to spoil such a manicured set of islands. I have an admiration and fondness for the Japanese, not like a friend like say the Thai people or maybe another European nation. But like an elder I should respect when I’m in their gardens. I look forward to going again but not out of excitement but pure curiosity, fascination and respect. We could all learn something from the Japanese.
I dont want to bring in nostalgia or sadness. But I really feel the need to convey how valuable is that you can experience that with your father. Mine sadly made some stupid financial errors and the amount of debt and all the shame he received from it destroyed him, making it almost impossible to have him for an adventure like such, altough in my childhood he always took me with him to nice trips and unforgettable experiences. As debt and some mistakes can take the spark of life away (at least for now) many thing can happen. I really wish you could enjoy time with your dad every single second and cherish it as the most valuable experience you may live. Remember life has its turns, it may take you out and rub you against the floor in unexpected ways as it did to me. And no matter what happens, moments like that with your bloodline are the real things that define how you are and what you want to be. Keep it up! Do what you like, like what you do.❤
I always feel a bit sad when I see videos of people traveling with their fathers; mine passed away when I was pretty young. I cherish the memories I do have of traveling with my parents as a child.
I made a trip to Ireland with my dad when I was twenty. We rented a little car and travelled all over the place. I’m so glad I have that memory. I’m 80 years old now but still have that memory and my dear dad is long gone. Always do these things when you can. Life is short.
I made some stupid decisions with drugs for 23 years of my life. I have been clean for almost a year and a half. I struggle everyday to be a good father to my 8 year old. I am barely making it. I hope one day I can take her on an airplane somewhere.
Calling this a train video is an absolute understatement. I have to confess I prefer trains to ships or planes. I think it's one of your best videos showing the luxury that exists coupled with amazing scenery. Also loved the shots of Poole Park (ex-Poole resident). Looking forward to more trips.
I love the videos where you travel with your parents, especially with your dad. My dad passed away a couple of years ago, and some of my favourite memories are of our travels together. Cherish the time you have with your parents, and the memories you make with them.
This must have been the most beautiful and luxurious train I have ever seen you travel on Will. Absolutely stunning! Thanks so much for spending a fortune so we can all enjoy this marvelous adventure you had with your Dad 🤩
Wonderful view out of the back window. The train is exquisite. The food is presented like jewellery, but it's contents are things I'm unaccustomed to. I'm glad you got your ticket. And doing that trip with your dad is priceless. My dad has passed away, it makes me feel good seeing others enjoying their dads' company after retirement. It's precious time. I don't know if you read these comments, but if you do, I can see you treasure your folks. It's great.
I traveled from Houston Texas to Portland Oregon in the US on a Greyhound bus. We had a layover of 7 hours at the LA bus station at night (from 2am- 9am) I do not recommend lol. It was definitely interesting.
Many Mexican bus companies are offering their services in the US I'll recommend next time you travel by bus see if one of the this companies have routes to your destination and try them you'll enjoy it 1000% better than greyhound.
38K??? It was gorgeous, and I lived vicariously through you because never in a thousand years could I pay that for 3 days on such a magnificent experience. But it was beautiful.
Exorbitant price for a pauper, but fair for a hnwi. It's all relative. 10k/d doe this treat is a lifetime experience. Thank you for sharing this trip. Truly inspirational.
luxury traintube is back, baby!!!! Dare I say this is more experientally luxurious than the Orient Express? I wish Japan was larger so the journey could be even longer!!
When it comes to luxury, this train looks like it is an order of magnitude above the Orient Express. Beautiful. Also, did you notice how stunningly clean those towns are...?
Yo! You got on the seven star Kyushu?! Lucky! That train is one of the most beautiful and high class trains in Japan! I’ve seen so many videos of this and it’s like a moving piece of artwork
$38,000 and you still have to pay for the Krug? Every type of champagne should have been included in that price. Very luxurious and way beyond most people's budgets so it was nice to watch your video.
One of your best videos, that train is absolutely beautiful, and that huge window in your suite….wow! Quite the experience I’m sure, thanks for taking us along. 🇨🇦
This is truly the trip of a lifetime and you got the last car which provided a great view from the rear of the train. It is all the more enriching to see your father along for the trip to share. Japan has incredible scenery throughout this excursion and I would be glued to the windows.

Impressive doesn't even begin to describe this train. I enjoyed this video immensely and the places where the train stops were gorgeous. Lovely food too. So glad you featured this. More travels with your parents ❤
Your trips are soo well presented and I wait for your next view tours and how it was done. Your great dude..and your parents, and sweet millie. Please don't stop. It's therapy for most that has never traveled. Thank you very much 👍
Nanatsuboshi, one of the Holy Trinity of Luxury Excursion Train in Japan, along with Mizukaze and Shikishima, along with room number 701 to boot, that's the best Suite in Nanatsuboshi, you got to try The Suite on Car No.7 on Mizukaze (you got the whole car as a room and have private balcony, panoramic bedroom and Bathtub), also the Shiki-Shima Suite Room on Car 7, with 2 floor apartment style room with Cypress Bathtub like onsen.
For what it's worth, natural mother of pearl is produced inside of an abalone shell, as well as a few other mollusc type critters... But generally abalone are famous for really "pretty" nacre and unique patterns to the colors, more so than the other nacre producers! Speaking of shellfish, the Kumamoto oyster is a legend of epic proportions. Even if you don't dig raw shooters, the Kumamoto is the way past that barrier. Amazing little pockets of glory! Sweet excursion! Incredible looking train! So cool!
What attracts me most is the civility of the people, the neatness and the surrounds. Imagine being able to have a car as your house and lve on the train. However I will "settle" for a wood house, handbuilt, not to big, outside of a city and where I can keep at least two boerboels 🙃 the train is worth every "cent" paid. An out of thia world experience👍🎀
You were on a 7 star service train with a phone for any need 24 hours a day and you end up ironing your own shirts? Twice! There is something amiss there.
Looks like they also had to ferry their own luggage between the ryokan and going back to the train. Not sure if that was just equipment they needed to keep close to them or what, but really raises an eyebrow.

Thats the private charter price, not the regular lotto price that the other passengers have paid. Difficult to compare as the suites aren’t the same (this one is superior), but it’s closer to $20k for the other suites..
Great video. I appreciate that you get to spend time with your dad and that he is with you. Cherish every moment of those unforgettable moments, whether you're fishing with your dad or traveling on a seven-star special train.
I didn't realise I wasn't subscribed already, but seeing you have trips on those two other luxurious trains next year, those are content I absolutely don't want to miss!
Thank you for uploading Seven Stars in Kyusyu and coming Japan! I sent you the request last year, so I'm so excited to watch your video! There are other luxury trains in Japan (They are lottery too...), so please come Japan again!!!
@@pious9567 I suppose Japanese eat fewer than other countries' people. Japanese are smaller and shorter than europeans and americans. They will serve extra foods if you want.
All your videos are impressive. This one really spoke to me of the Japanese tradition and how meticulous they were in trying to really bring their tradition to the passengers. The one thing I noticed was that the breakfast would’ve been quite heavy for me lol I don’t know what I would’ve done butI think my mouth would’ve been agape through the whole trip just in wonder at everything! Once again an awesome video.
Beautiful train! I laughed at 14:35 with the Usopp statue standing so proudly I wasn't expecting that but it made this One Piece fan very happy to see. I'd love to see you explore Japan more and experience the exotic luxury that Japan has to offer from small to big. It's my dream country to visit and possibly live there someday. As far as the bar not allowing pictures that's semi normal across Japan, certain areas whether it be entertainment or onsens, prefer no photos to respect other people's privacy and cameras can be distracting when they want you to fully focus on the experience.
Aso is located in Kumamoto prefecture which is Oda's birth region. There are multiple bronze statues throughout Kumamoto featuring one piece characters.
Greetings from the Republic of Ireland. I finally subscribed to your channel JUST BECAUSE THIS IS THE BEST REVIEW YOU'VE EVER EVER DONE. Keep up the fantastic work.
Maybe your best video trip yet, Will, and you've had a many! Enjoyed it tremendously, and glad your pops could go along. Cheers to all with many thanks.
This train is fancier than I thought. I remember one of your viewers suggesting this train. Glad to finally get insight into it and the excursions. It's really wonderful, and your dad playing the drums was a fun clip. And the price for two is well worth it. Especially since the video itself is a success.
Oh, the train would have been hard to say goodbye to - everything looked amazingly beautiful. That looks like a wonderful unique experience - thank-you to you and your father, for taking us with you on this 'once in a lottery' journey - I really enjoyed it!
This is one of my alltime dreams of doing this exact tour. I was in awesome and crying throughout seeing your amazing tour. It thrilled me and made me wish I was middleclass and could afford it. But its still on my bucket list despite lack of luck. JAPAN is the goal. ❤
I absolutely love your longer play videos so much more immersive. I really enjoy watching not only the travel but the relationship you have with family. Wow 30k that’s nearly a years wage, but what an experience 😁
It's a really wonderful thing to be able to share these great experiences with you family. As I get older I realize how lucky I am to still be able to vacation with my parents as I know it's creating the memories that I will cherish for the rest of my life.
You should 100% do more trips around Japan! It's such an amazing country! Some of the landscapes are stunning and the residents are so polite! Definitely top of my bucket list!
This was AMAZING! The level of detail from the decor to the food/ beverage service was ASTOUNDING! Even the staff was IMMACULATE! Thank you for sharing!
I am so happy you have your dad with you for this travel adventure. Beautiful memories you are making. I also loved your 80 day around the world trip with your mom and Dad for part of it. I lost my daddy in 1994 and my mom in 1999. I still miss them dearly. I thought of him because you mentioned the abalone. That was his secret ingredient for his ceviche!
That's unfortunately a question of lobbying. The automobile and airline industries have spent a lot of money ensuring that rail travel is not a viable competitor for infrastructure funding in the US. Don't like that? Write your congresspeople.
Have you heard of Brightline in Florida? It departs from Orlando airport if you’re taking it from the north and stops at West Palm, Fort Lauderdale, Miami 16 day and some of them also stop at Boca Raton in Aventura. There are two classes and some people say it’s expensive even the economy class called Smart class, but they always have a lot of specials if you check on their website I’ve taken it three times and always enjoyed it!!!
@@SquishyOfCinder its not hate, its to save ppl like you from just giving him god status for something he didn't do. Would you say you treated your friend to dinner if someone else paid for you both? I mean, its cool for the dad to get to tag along but its of no effort on his part. he's paid and gets to take probably 2 people with him and you saw all those photographers in the cabin, this is a special promotional tour so all guests probably has some sort of influencer gig and the way he talked and explained minute boring details let me to belive that everything is scripted and heavily restricted in terms of what's being said and shown. Also i don't know about the "7 Star train", what star system is that, i mean the place is actually called "7 star" so maybe it's just meant to sound like its a 7 star michelin awarded train or whatever. the longer i looked the more frustrated i got and i only zapped for a short while. my "angry" comment should be viewed as straight info to gullable people who prase a false god.
Simply amazing. What a trip! First class from the first minute to the last. You won't get that experience on the night riviera to Penzance! 😂. One of the best youtube videos i have every watched. 😉
This probably the most beautiful trip you've taken yet. Exotic, utterly tasteful, and the Japanese people are so accommodating and friendly in their formal way. And the SEAFOOD and the scenery. Totally delightful!! I want India, Thailand, Turkey, Africa, Chili and Patagonia next!!

Is it just me, or did UA-cam massively increase the number of adds recently? Great video, but it broke for adds every 2 minutes

Japan has a beautiful way with aesthetics. ❤
I traveled from Houston Texas to Portland Oregon in the US on a Greyhound bus. We had a layover of 7 hours at the LA bus station at night (from 2am- 9am) I do not recommend lol. It was definitely interesting.
Count your blessings - Greyhound are selling off their bus stations, leaving nocturnal layover passengers literally standing around on the street!
Many Mexican bus companies are offering their services in the US I'll recommend next time you travel by bus see if one of the this companies have routes to your destination and try them you'll enjoy it 1000% better than greyhound.
@@BORDERMAN2000 Good to know. Thanks
38K??? It was gorgeous, and I lived vicariously through you because never in a thousand years could I pay that for 3 days on such a magnificent experience. But it was beautiful.
As millions of children have no food or clean water. Bravo A hole
@@griffini19And what exactly are you doing about that problem up there on your high horse, I wonder?
Exorbitant price for a pauper, but fair for a hnwi. It's all relative. 10k/d doe this treat is a lifetime experience. Thank you for sharing this trip. Truly inspirational.
Your problem dude.
luxury traintube is back, baby!!!! Dare I say this is more experientally luxurious than the Orient Express? I wish Japan was larger so the journey could be even longer!!
When it comes to luxury, this train looks like it is an order of magnitude above the Orient Express. Beautiful. Also, did you notice how stunningly clean those towns are...?
Yo! You got on the seven star Kyushu?! Lucky! That train is one of the most beautiful and high class trains in Japan! I’ve seen so many videos of this and it’s like a moving piece of artwork
the best thing of this travel in the train, is that you spent it with your father. And that, sir, makes it the best to the best.
$38,000 and you still have to pay for the Krug? Every type of champagne should have been included in that price. Very luxurious and way beyond most people's budgets so it was nice to watch your video.
And iron your own shirts?
Should've had a personal dedicated butler stationed right outside the door at this kind of price.
For $38K Wagyu, caviar, and blowjobs should have been on the lunch menu
For 38,000 I'm gonna drink myself to death to make sure I get my money's worth if they let me
Lovely. Your dad is so dad. The way he walks 😂.
What an unbelievable experience, that so few in the world will ever have. It’s like a dream.
The train was gorgeous, the landscape beautiful, but that onsen! Unbelievable, magnificent 👌🏼🙂
One of your best videos, that train is absolutely beautiful, and that huge window in your suite….wow! Quite the experience I’m sure, thanks for taking us along. 🇨🇦
A. S. O. Too much volcano! Sorry, I couldn't help myself. Those who get it, get it.
Ah, a fellow traveler abroad in Japan
Natsuki 😎
I get Chris, Joey, and Naskie Kool. Huge fan of Chris broad and abroad in Japan 👍👋🤗
Yup that funny lol
100% that was what I was thinking.
People we love are not here long enough,,cherish these fantastic moments..They are but fleeting..Amazing video. 🙏💯🙏💯
Truth
@@888KingsDaughter 🙏💯👍
We can't just keep adding stars to make it good. The disrespect for the 5 star system is nuts😂
It’s such a joke at this point. They’re trying to justify the ridiculous price.
@@K8TYK8 that's an 8 star comment my friend.
@@wildone8397 it was clearly a joke
Isn't it just the name of the train?
@@hurrah1eqe892 😱 You're kidding me?!
🙄
This is truly the trip of a lifetime and you got the last car which provided a great view from the rear of the train. It is all the more enriching to see your father along for the trip to share.
Japan has incredible scenery throughout this excursion and I would be glued to the windows.
The statue at 14:36 is of Usopp, from the wildly popular manga/anime One Piece!
Yeah. When I saw the statue I had to stop and check. That’s cool. I do love Japan.
I saw that too and had to look up if it’s real so cool! 14:36

Satan is referred to as the prince of the power of the air for good reason, he owns the airwaves on planet earth and is the god (little g) of this world. It is my hope and prayer that you choose the God (Big G) of heaven who controls the destiny of your eternal soul.

(2 Corinthians 4:3-4 > [3]-But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:

Impressive doesn't even begin to describe this train. I enjoyed this video immensely and the places where the train stops were gorgeous. Lovely food too. So glad you featured this. More travels with your parents ❤
Your trips are soo well presented and I wait for your next view tours and how it was done. Your great dude..and your parents, and sweet millie. Please don't stop. It's therapy for most that has never traveled. Thank you very much 👍
Nanatsuboshi, one of the Holy Trinity of Luxury Excursion Train in Japan, along with Mizukaze and Shikishima, along with room number 701 to boot, that's the best Suite in Nanatsuboshi, you got to try The Suite on Car No.7 on Mizukaze (you got the whole car as a room and have private balcony, panoramic bedroom and Bathtub), also the Shiki-Shima Suite Room on Car 7, with 2 floor apartment style room with Cypress Bathtub like onsen.
For what it's worth, natural mother of pearl is produced inside of an abalone shell, as well as a few other mollusc type critters... But generally abalone are famous for really "pretty" nacre and unique patterns to the colors, more so than the other nacre producers! Speaking of shellfish, the Kumamoto oyster is a legend of epic proportions. Even if you don't dig raw shooters, the Kumamoto is the way past that barrier. Amazing little pockets of glory!
Sweet excursion! Incredible looking train! So cool!
And you get people who say , (if I win the euro millions I would get bored) not a chance when you have amazing things like this
Truly amazing
Oh great I was just about to go to bed and Will uploads!! Oh well.
Looks like that’s another half an hour before I go to sleep 😁
What attracts me most is the civility of the people, the neatness and the surrounds. Imagine being able to have a car as your house and lve on the train. However I will "settle" for a wood house, handbuilt, not to big, outside of a city and where I can keep at least two boerboels 🙃 the train is worth every "cent" paid. An out of thia world experience👍🎀
You were on a 7 star service train with a phone for any need 24 hours a day and you end up ironing your own shirts? Twice! There is something amiss there.
My thoughts exactly.
that's the comment I wanted to write😂...for that money I wouldn't lift a finger for anything!
Yes I would imagine for such an exorbitant price someone would come and iron your shirts and press your suits for you
Looks like they also had to ferry their own luggage between the ryokan and going back to the train. Not sure if that was just equipment they needed to keep close to them or what, but really raises an eyebrow.
yesterday i walked home and under a railway bridge in Manchester i saw a couple of lads drinking pink champagne and eating caviar in slow motion. They were wearing "chinos" , while sitting outside their tent listening to gentle piano music, ......we became tired so we kicked off our "Tims", put on our p.j.'s and retired to our tent for a lovely relaxing sleep. In the morning, after the obligatory caffeine hit etc etc, we readied ourselves for the day. 👍
Thanks for sharing something which few earthly mortals could experience. Very tight work, all around.
日本人でも乗りたいのよ〜〜
素敵な旅でしたね😙
また日本に来て色んなとこいってくださいね😀
What a beautiful trip. This train is an experience like no other. Very nice for you and your pop to share this trip together.❤
The crazy thing is if it’s 99/1 to get a ticket there are 99 other people wanting to pay $38000 for a train ticket. 😮
Yes but is your name kept in the hat for the next draw? Then the odds tumble.
Thats the private charter price, not the regular lotto price that the other passengers have paid. Difficult to compare as the suites aren’t the same (this one is superior), but it’s closer to $20k for the other suites..
You never cease to impress me with your beautiful rooms and views.
I've been waiting for this one and it did not disappoint! Dad rules!!!
Great video. I appreciate that you get to spend time with your dad and that he is with you. Cherish every moment of those unforgettable moments, whether you're fishing with your dad or traveling on a seven-star special train.
I didn't realise I wasn't subscribed already, but seeing you have trips on those two other luxurious trains next year, those are content I absolutely don't want to miss!
Hope you have enjoyed your time with your father. Memories for a lifetime ❤
OMG seven stars in Kyushu train is seriously so fancy and iconic, glad that you can experienced with your dad too.
Excellent narrative and photography, you and your Dad are a spitting image.
Thank you very much and take care
Thank you for uploading Seven Stars in Kyusyu and coming Japan! I sent you the request last year, so I'm so excited to watch your video!
There are other luxury trains in Japan (They are lottery too...), so please come Japan again!!!
Hi why is the food amount too less I would starve to death if I'm fed like that
@@pious9567 I suppose Japanese eat fewer than other countries' people. Japanese are smaller and shorter than europeans and americans. They will serve extra foods if you want.
@@pious9567 fine dining portions are always like this
All your videos are impressive. This one really spoke to me of the Japanese tradition and how meticulous they were in trying to really bring their tradition to the passengers. The one thing I noticed was that the breakfast would’ve been quite heavy for me lol I don’t know what I would’ve done butI think my mouth would’ve been agape through the whole trip just in wonder at everything! Once again an awesome video.
Beautiful train! I laughed at 14:35 with the Usopp statue standing so proudly I wasn't expecting that but it made this One Piece fan very happy to see. I'd love to see you explore Japan more and experience the exotic luxury that Japan has to offer from small to big. It's my dream country to visit and possibly live there someday. As far as the bar not allowing pictures that's semi normal across Japan, certain areas whether it be entertainment or onsens, prefer no photos to respect other people's privacy and cameras can be distracting when they want you to fully focus on the experience.
Aso is located in Kumamoto prefecture which is Oda's birth region. There are multiple bronze statues throughout Kumamoto featuring one piece characters.
@@TehKisuka that’s so cool! Adding to my list of towns to visit when I get the chance ❤️
The craftsmanship of that train is equisite!
Can't wait for the Japanese train trilogy
38 grand is more than I make in a year. I would absolutely spend it on an experience like this.
This completes my Sunday evening, what an experience. It's always fun to watch your videos. Bravo!
Life experience for your dad playing the drums!
never been so jealous, this looks incredible
I appreciate you sharing something that not many people on Earth can experience. Excellent work overall.
Greetings from the Republic of Ireland. I finally subscribed to your channel JUST BECAUSE THIS IS THE BEST REVIEW YOU'VE EVER EVER DONE. Keep up the fantastic work.
This is by far the most beautiful train I have seen you ride….TOP NOTCH…I would bet u keep those PJ’s
the only travel blogger i watch something special about your vids and experiences.
This mood in here is everything!
This was an incredible trip for you and your Dad. What an experience. Another brilliant TT video.
Maybe your best video trip yet, Will, and you've had a many! Enjoyed it tremendously, and glad your pops could go along. Cheers to all with many thanks.
It's special to see video's with fathers. Japanese people are the perfect hosts and so. Extremely respectful, kind and warm. What a beautiful train.
Seriously, this content brightened my mood!
This train is fancier than I thought. I remember one of your viewers suggesting this train. Glad to finally get insight into it and the excursions. It's really wonderful, and your dad playing the drums was a fun clip. And the price for two is well worth it.
Especially since the video itself is a success.
That is my Sunday well and truly complete! Thank you for your content and bringing the world to us through our screens!
Well, I’d take that over the Caledonian sleeper any day! And even the Royal train seems positively utilitarian by comparison with this.
@trektrendy, please could you do more Japan Sleeper train videos? I had no idea they did this in Japan!
Oh, the train would have been hard to say goodbye to - everything looked amazingly beautiful. That looks like a wonderful unique experience - thank-you to you and your father, for taking us with you on this 'once in a lottery' journey - I really enjoyed it!
Mom and Millie must be pissed they missed this adventure!! 😂😂😂. You go Dad!
7 is my favorite number
7 completion and perfection..
This is Luxury at its best
This is one of my alltime dreams of doing this exact tour. I was in awesome and crying throughout seeing your amazing tour. It thrilled me and made me wish I was middleclass and could afford it. But its still on my bucket list despite lack of luck. JAPAN is the goal. ❤
This suite is unreal!!
This was a very special adventure. Thank you, Will!
I absolutely love your longer play videos so much more immersive. I really enjoy watching not only the travel but the relationship you have with family. Wow 30k that’s nearly a years wage, but what an experience 😁
The fact that we get free videos on UA-cam by Trek Trendy is truly a gift; keeping knowledge and entertainment alive. 👍🤷
Yeah because he does it for us 😆money money money
It's a really wonderful thing to be able to share these great experiences with you family. As I get older I realize how lucky I am to still be able to vacation with my parents as I know it's creating the memories that I will cherish for the rest of my life.
You should 100% do more trips around Japan! It's such an amazing country! Some of the landscapes are stunning and the residents are so polite! Definitely top of my bucket list!
This was AMAZING! The level of detail from the decor to the food/ beverage service was ASTOUNDING! Even the staff was IMMACULATE! Thank you for sharing!
It's the sweetest you take your Dad, Mum and/or Millie on all your adventures ❤
I am so happy you have your dad with you for this travel adventure. Beautiful memories you are making. I also loved your 80 day around the world trip with your mom and Dad for part of it. I lost my daddy in 1994 and my mom in 1999. I still miss them dearly. I thought of him because you mentioned the abalone. That was his secret ingredient for his ceviche!
Could someone make a train that's nicer than Amtrak but not a super-duper, luxury expensive train for the USA...please?
That's unfortunately a question of lobbying. The automobile and airline industries have spent a lot of money ensuring that rail travel is not a viable competitor for infrastructure funding in the US.
Don't like that? Write your congresspeople.
Yes, every single train in the Netherlands? ;)
Have you heard of Brightline in Florida? It departs from Orlando airport if you’re taking it from the north and stops at West Palm, Fort Lauderdale, Miami 16 day and some of them also stop at Boca Raton in Aventura.
There are two classes and some people say it’s expensive even the economy class called Smart class, but they always have a lot of specials if you check on their website I’ve taken it three times and always enjoyed it!!!
@@enjoystravelingis that the one that's going all the way up to Pittsburgh and Chicago?
@@malloryoates8580No that’s regular mediocre Amtrak. Brightline is an independently operated high speed rail service from Miami to Orlando.
The special thing is doing it with your father, that's really cool.
What a blessed son treating his parents, God bless you 🙏
what are you on about. He is getting paid for the promotion. Did you think he actually won the lottery or paid for the trip? cmon.
@@SquishyOfCinder its not hate, its to save ppl like you from just giving him god status for something he didn't do. Would you say you treated your friend to dinner if someone else paid for you both? I mean, its cool for the dad to get to tag along but its of no effort on his part. he's paid and gets to take probably 2 people with him and you saw all those photographers in the cabin, this is a special promotional tour so all guests probably has some sort of influencer gig and the way he talked and explained minute boring details let me to belive that everything is scripted and heavily restricted in terms of what's being said and shown. Also i don't know about the "7 Star train", what star system is that, i mean the place is actually called "7 star" so maybe it's just meant to sound like its a 7 star michelin awarded train or whatever. the longer i looked the more frustrated i got and i only zapped for a short while. my "angry" comment should be viewed as straight info to gullable people who prase a false god.
Take your Seroquel. Chill TF out @@Experternas
Simply amazing. What a trip! First class from the first minute to the last. You won't get that experience on the night riviera to Penzance! 😂. One of the best youtube videos i have every watched. 😉
I swear this man has been everywhere😂😂😂😂
What a magnificent trip...this would be my dream!!!! Thank you for sharing it with us...💗💗💗
Must have been an absolute honour to be on this train.
Your dad is so composed
This probably the most beautiful trip you've taken yet. Exotic, utterly tasteful, and the Japanese people are so accommodating and friendly in their formal way. And the SEAFOOD and the scenery. Totally delightful!! I want India, Thailand, Turkey, Africa, Chili and Patagonia next!!
Love your videos. It's always a joy seeing your Dad.
Basically " My name is Will & you will never be able to afford any of my vlogs/trips" 😂
Can’t afford but certainly enjoy adding it to my dream trip 😊
Nice to dream.
7 Stars needs to open in the states on Americas rails. Imagine taking in the American west in Japanese style. It would be massive.
