Thank you thank you thank you. I've said it before, you guys provide more of a feeling and understanding about the places you're visiting just by showing street life and day-to-day stuff than any other vloggers who seem intent on giving information by talking the whole time. You show getting tickets for public transport, buying hot drinks from vending machines, going to 7-11, travel passes, walking around, interesting sights, and you film it and let it explain itself, and give a bit of chat when needed, so that we really get a feel for what you are doing in such a happy and, well, artistic manner it's a joy to watch. Congratulations. Melbourne Simon.
This is exactly the type of thing we are trying to convey, so it is really amazing to hear that it is being received that way! Always lovely to hear from you, Simon. Hope all is well in Australia. Cheveyo & Tia
I travelled from Tokyo to Hiroshima on the Shinkansen, loved it. So smooth. Japan has the best and most reliable public transport. Japan is awesome. I miss it so much.

I'm Japanese, welcome to Japan. I don't think much of it when I ride it every day for work, but seeing it from a different perspective made me understand once again how exciting it is. I hope you enjoy the rest of the world as well.
I am so jealous of you guys. I am in Tokyo now and wanted to go up to Hokkaido but couldn't get enough vacation time to do it. Looking forward to watching your adventures up there instead.
You guys are just so pleasant to watch. Everything is well presented and not too long and highlight all the cool stuff on your adventures. Keep it up !
Some Interesting facts about the Shinkansen: the more the number of cars, the faster it goes. Every car has its own power train unlike the normal trains you find elsewhere, which are usually powered by 1 or 2 locomotives. The Shinkansen N700 series has a maximum of 16 cars and top speed of 300 kmph. Also, it takes about 4 kilometers to come to a dead stop from a top speed of 300 kmph. It is equipped with earthquake detection sensors which automatically triggers emergency stop procedure in case of an earthquake along its route.
@@OnePackWanderers oh yes, I forgot the most interesting fact as to why the N700 series have an elongated nose. This is to ensure stability when entering tunnels at very high speeds, but the most interesting part is how did the engineers come up with such a design for the nose. Well, it so happened someone was watching a kingfisher dive into the water, causing hardly a ripple. So they came up with a nose design modeling the beak of the kingfisher. This is the beauty of Zen, learn from what nature has to offer.

There is something special about riding trains in Japan but especially the Shinkansen. It's one of my favorite things to do there, very practical, easy and comfortable! This series is so cool, I am learning a lot of new things & places.
Good for you to that you got to spend time with Tia's family in Japan ☺️ I would like to take the bullet train in Japan! Can't wait to see more of Sapporo 🤩
My wife and I visited Hokkaido last week and decided to fly instead of taking the Shinkansen. We were only in Japan for a week and didn't want to spend 2 of those days on a train. The flight was only an hour and half and I think it was cheaper. We highly recommend renting a car because you'll see so much more of the island. We also rented a car in Tokyo and had an amazing time seeing the autumn colors around Lake Kawaguchi and Hakone. We also saw quite a bit more than usual while driving around Tokyo last Saturday. Hope you see some autumn colors on Hokkaido because we seemed to be a little late where we were. Just another reason to return another time.
I’m doing the same thing next month. Going to Japan for a week and decided to squeeze in a one night two day trip to Hokkaido 🥲 wasn’t sure if it was a stupid thing to do or not because it’s my first time in Japan
@@zgrace3224 I used Nippon Rent a Car at the New Chitose airport and in Tokyo. They also have several locations in Sapporo. It was really easy and they were incredibly friendly. I’m guessing that every company is like that.
Hokkaido was the first spot i landed in my journey to Japan , i have yet to finish it up by visiting Kyushu , my last leg but covid struck , Hokkaido is like the Alaska of Japan , it's at the north , cold , got bears and they eat lots of seafood .. superb upload from dynamic duo
How nice that you got to spend quality time with your family! It looked so nice. That is a long day of travels and I hope y’all got a good nights rest. So amazing that you’re going to be traveling all through Japan 😍

I took that train. Absolutely loved it. Great you had family time. Are you going to extend Japan trip?? Are you going to the brewery?? Absolutely awesome
I’m glad that your parents are in Japan and you were able to spent time with them and all of your relatives . Kudos to you for keeping the traditions by payed respects to your ancestors. Take care and keep the videos coming.😊

If you’re going to the far south of Japan, I highly recommend the island of Yakushima off the south of the main islands of Japan. One of my favorite places I’ve been in the world. Thousands of year old massive cypress trees up in the mountains including possibly the oldest tree alive in the world that you hike to up an old WWII era abandoned train track. Special species of deer and monkeys up in the mountains. Moss forests that inspired some of Miyazaki’s animated forests. Tropical jungle feeling at ground level up to high temperate forests up the mountains. Amazing local onsens and seafood. And a fun ferry ride for a few hours out from Kagoshima to get there.

I went to Japan roughly 3 weeks ago too. Been in Hokkaido Sapporo the entire time so far but will be going to Tokyo soon... kind of reverse of your guys. Have fun.
omg i lovvvvve the Japan videos!!! it’s bringing back all the memories from when i was there in 2019 😭 can’t wait to see what the rest of your trip has in store for y’all ✨🫶🏼
@@OnePackWanderers yesssss I’m planning to go back next year around the end of summer!!! Honestly soooo excited for it 🤩 p.s I’ll be adding a few things from your guys trip to my itinerary hehe 🤓🍜
it looks very comfy on the bullet train despite the long-distance journey! I hope you guys enjoy the Hokkaido scenery, food, and leaf coloration! maybe the Onsen too!
Having done the same train trip, I think I will fly next time. I took the train because I wanted to stop in Aomori but for time saving purposes I think I will take advantage of internal flights
My husband and I LOVE your videos we are so excited when we see you’ve posted a new video. How long are you going to be in Japan for? Can’t wait for your next post🤗
My passion is train too .Thanks for sharing unfortunately shinkansen go to only hakodate afterthat is quite not high speed but i still love it I miss the time i took train from sapporo to furano 6 years ago
I just did the same trip yesterday! I’m in Sapporo too. But..I flew, took an hour and a half. Can’t wait to share the experience with you, I’m looking for ideas. I’m here the next 2 weeks. Hope to run into you!
In Hokkaido(北海道), there's a fried chicken called "Zangi(ザンギ)." It is one size bigger than the common Japanese fried chicken called "Karaage(からあげ)" and very tasty! Hokkaido is also rich in seafood, so if you get a chance, try crab(カニ), salmon roe(イクラ), or sea urchin(ウニ)! It's a bit pricey though lol
I am here by chance and happy to see you two enjoying your train trip in Japan. I love trains, too. 2 weeks ago I've visited Aomori and Akita by Shinkansen. Have a great stay in Japan!
Thank you for another wonderful video! I'm sure you'll have a great time in Hokkaido with all the beautiful scenery and the FOOD! I remember eating corn on the cob and a baked potato from a street vendor right in the park! The soft ice cream is also super yummy. Otaru is a very picturesque port city close to Sapporo and has some really nice cafes and shops. I think the way you two travel is such a nice way to enjoy everything around you. I love the enthusiasm and warmth you bring to every video! 😁👏
Hi guys, I just got back from Korea and did just about everything you guys did! epic adventure, cant wait to re create your Japan tour. I did the KTX "bullet" triain.... cant wait to ride a real bullet train.
@@OnePackWanderers I was very blessed. I covered points to the east and west and SEOUL to Busan. some much to see and love. There were amazing things and some complicated things to witness. Loved the food, always felt safe and respected as a traveller from Canada. Love your series, always love "Tia for scale"! cant wait to see more of Japan in your series.
Loving your videos. I was in Japan roughly same time visiting family. Love the Shinkansen’s and you’re totally right. They upgraded the specs on line so it does 320km/h (restricted to that speed to be super safe b/c it has been tested at much higher speeds, but Japanese like to be precise and safe). I was in Hakodate this January and it was bitterly cold and windy. While my family spend more time with grandparents in Japan, I am back in Sydney and it’s a jump from winter Japan to summer Australia that shows that seasons can be seriously different and…. Biggest shock with coming home is how much stronger Australian sun is.
I am very pleased with this wonderful family reunion🌱 Hokkaido is a treasure trove of ingredients! For seafood, seasonal oysters and scallops. He is more of a meat person than a fish person, I recommend Hokkaido wagyu beef or mutton barbecue called Genghis Khan. Miso butter ramen is also a must ! Lloyd's for chocolate and Shiroi Koibito are the most famous chocolate confections in Japan💓 You won't see drift ice until January, but it's already below freezing in the northern and eastern parts of Hokkaido right now. If you buy a light down compact vest or jacket from UNIQLO that folds up small like a raincoat, it will come in handy early in the morning and at night when it is cold. I've been using mine for 6 years and it hasn't deteriorated at all🎵 Every woman in Japan uses Uniqlo's Heattech underwear. And we enjoy wearing clothes that are not limited to protection from the cold✨ I have become a fan of yours and will continue to watch your wonderful travel videos even after I leave Japan. I'll be watching you guys with great enthusiasm for your comfortable journey in the North 🌱🌱
Ah! The electronic message board inside the Shinkansen said that the train was delayed because something had entered the tracks. Perhaps a deer? It happened only twice in the past. There is no entrance or exit, so they say it's hard to get rid of it. How they get in is a mystery. Thanks for the long wait🍀 In the city, police officers sometimes guide and organize cars when the Karugamo ducks move out. It is a peaceful Japan🦆🦌🦆🦌✨
@@OnePackWanderers Cool. Half a century ago I was in Japan for almost three years. There is a small US Army base (Camp Zama) to the south-west of Tokyo and that is where I went to high school.
Yay! You're going to visit my in-laws hometown in Kagoshima! Lots of great food down there not to mention shochu! Highly recommend you also try their premium tonkatsu, karakan, ramen and tori sashi. I'm sure you'll visit Sakurajima too and there's a free public hot foot bath very near the ferry port. 🥩🍜 🐔 🍶 🗾
I thought you guys were going to Hokkaido with just t-shirts lol But it's still warmer than Hokkaido in winter. The average temperature in Hokkaido in winter is about 15℉.

It's cheaper to take a low cost carrier and fly in half the time. Take a bullet train on a shorter and cheaper ride. Then again a bullet train is so cool and should be on one's bucket list. The rail pass is a bargain...maybe? We found that lots of trains are not JR... Will Sapporo have the ice festival this year? Think it's in Feb so you may have to come back...bring your parkas.🥶
I like trains as well, but I dont think I will like it for 8 hours! Going from Tokyo to Sapporo directly ourselves with no plans to stop in Hakodate! Flying with a 21 month old seems like the faster and better option for us!
Shinkansen runs on standard-gauge railway (1435mm). While many, but not every, of the none Shinkansen Japanese railways are on 1067mm narrow-gauge railway. This maybe why some other trains are narrower. Metros are also on standard-gauge.
Ah, thank you for the correction/context! Maybe the Shinkansen just felt wider due to clever packaging/seating arrangement? Or it was just my mind playing tricks on me 😂
@@OnePackWanderers No no 😆 What I meant was Shinkansen trains are indeed wider. You were right about it. The JR Hokkaido train and the Narita Airport train are both at about 2,845mm wide. Shinkansen trains are about 3,385 mm wide. 🚄 Metro trains are narrower even thought it's on standard-gauge, sorry for the confusion on gauge width. There are Metro trains from 2,490mm wide to around 2,800mm wide. To sums it up, Shinkansen are much wider then all other Japanese trains and Metros. 😄 Maybe look up some of the tourist train around Japan! The special sightseeing trains are beautiful. Some with special meals and have special interior. JR Kyushu have a whole range of tourist trains all look amazing.
That'd be so cool! We are such small potatoes compared to him, I think we'd be irritating if we tried to meet him 😂 But it would be really cool to run into him. He seems a lot like my (Cheveyo's) dad.
@@OnePackWanderers I think he’d be happy to meet you guys! Trust me, with Tia’s knowledge of Japan you could help him! Reach out! You have nothing to lose!
Thankfully, there are no reservation fees attached to the JR Pass we bought. I think the only extra fees would be if we decided to upgrade to first class, or take one of the overnight sleeper trains.
We have been comparing the regular cost of fares against the JR Pass, and it’s definitely worth it if you plan to use trains. For us, the cost will equal out after a week of use, and that’s for the 21 day ticket. We will probably ‘save’ $600 per person at the end. Have fun on your trip! Hokkaido is really cool 🙂
Hi, can you please tell me how much did it cost to get from Tokyo to Hokkaido? I always wanted to go to Hokkaido when i was studying over there but I didn't have a chance. Now that I'm going back tokyo for a trip, I wanna see if I could go there on my own. Thank you in advance.

Ah! The electronic message board inside the Shinkansen said that the train was delayed because something had entered the tracks. Perhaps a deer?
It happened only twice in the past. There is no entrance or exit, so they say it's hard to get rid of it. How they get in is a mystery. Thanks for the long wait🍀
In the city, police officers sometimes guide and organize cars when the Karugamo ducks move out.
It is a peaceful Japan🦆🦌🦆🦌✨
Ooh, thank you so much for the wonderful suggestions! Will definitely have to try Genghis Kahn here 😋
Sweet and funny bloopers
was Tia born in Japan? Loved the video guys! So nice that you got to spend time with family. How special!
I was born in the US 🙂 Mom and that whole side of the family is from there. I’ve been lucky enough to visit many times 😊
@@OnePackWanderers Cool. Half a century ago I was in Japan for almost three years. There is a small US Army base (Camp Zama) to the south-west of Tokyo and that is where I went to high school.
Thank you Arigatogozaimasu 😉
I just love you guys. Kinda late for me to tune in, but thanks! Are those AllBirds? lol
Those are AllBirds! Good eye 😂
Yay! You're going to visit my in-laws hometown in Kagoshima! Lots of great food down there not to mention shochu! Highly recommend you also try their premium tonkatsu, karakan, ramen and tori sashi. I'm sure you'll visit Sakurajima too and there's a free public hot foot bath very near the ferry port.

I thought you guys were going to Hokkaido with just t-shirts lol But it's still warmer than Hokkaido in winter. The average temperature in Hokkaido in winter is about 15℉.
２人の笑顔を見ていると、汽車旅の楽しさがわかります。北海道にようこそ😀
Trains are also my favorite form of transport. 😊😊😊
“Every day for the next 3 weeks”! 🤣🤣🤣🚂🚂
Cool trip, you guys. Greeting from Indonesia :)
Hello to Indonesia 🙂
楽しんでいってね！
You guys should have stayed in Hakodate for a day or two.. It's great ;-) Breaks up the loooong train ride as well :-)
That gives us something to do on the way back down 🙂
私は札幌に住んでます。ようこそ、北海道へ。ようこそ、札幌へ！
Thank you! 😊
try now the Indonesian fast train, the first highest speed in Southeast Asia has just been completed, the Indonesian Jakarta - Bandung fast train which has just been inaugurated has a speed of 350 K kilometers, the fastest in Southeast Asia, the first in Southeast Asia, travel to Bandung city by train fast, the beautiful and comfortable city of Bandung is cool and cool
It's cheaper to take a low cost carrier and fly in half the time. Take a bullet train on a shorter and cheaper ride. Then again a bullet train is so cool and should be on one's bucket list.
The rail pass is a bargain...maybe? We found that lots of trains are not JR...
Will Sapporo have the ice festival this year? Think it's in Feb so you may have to come back...bring your parkas.🥶
next time in tokyo ansaw please. haneda air port near. japaneas aomori ken fish only izakaya . please eat . from direct prefecuture.
I like trains as well, but I dont think I will like it for 8 hours! Going from Tokyo to Sapporo directly ourselves with no plans to stop in Hakodate! Flying with a 21 month old seems like the faster and better option for us!
Shinkansen runs on standard-gauge railway (1435mm). While many, but not every, of the none Shinkansen Japanese railways are on 1067mm narrow-gauge railway. This maybe why some other trains are narrower. Metros are also on standard-gauge.
Ah, thank you for the correction/context! Maybe the Shinkansen just felt wider due to clever packaging/seating arrangement? Or it was just my mind playing tricks on me 😂
@@OnePackWanderers No no 😆 What I meant was Shinkansen trains are indeed wider. You were right about it.
The JR Hokkaido train and the Narita Airport train are both at about 2,845mm wide.
Shinkansen trains are about 3,385 mm wide. 🚄
Metro trains are narrower even thought it's on standard-gauge, sorry for the confusion on gauge width. There are Metro trains from 2,490mm wide to around 2,800mm wide.
To sums it up, Shinkansen are much wider then all other Japanese trains and Metros. 😄
Maybe look up some of the tourist train around Japan! The special sightseeing trains are beautiful. Some with special meals and have special interior. JR Kyushu have a whole range of tourist trains all look amazing.
So jealous of you two right now, I'm about ready to start blasting the Asian Kung Fu Generation and Ellegarden on the headphones 😆
Kung Fu Generation heck yea!
私は日本人です 新幹線大好き人間で日本新幹線に乗る度にこの鉄道は完璧だと思います🎉
How do you book the Shinkansen tickets? Thanks
Gabriel Traveler is also there! Possible meet-up with some my favorite UA-cam vloggers? Hokkaido
That'd be so cool! We are such small potatoes compared to him, I think we'd be irritating if we tried to meet him 😂 But it would be really cool to run into him. He seems a lot like my (Cheveyo's) dad.
@@OnePackWanderers I think he’d be happy to meet you guys! Trust me, with Tia’s knowledge of Japan you could help him! Reach out! You have nothing to lose!
Said your 70 yr old Grandma!
❤️ Konbanwa
We messaged him 😅
my first time on speed rain was Frankfurt to Berlin. As you know Australia has slow train network
北海道まで新幹線で行かれたんですね、長旅お疲れ様でした。新幹線はどうでしたか？快適に過ごせていたら、嬉しいです。
この時期だと東京と北海道の温度差がかなりあるので、気を付けて下さいね。
北海道は食べ物がとても美味しく（特に魚介類）、喜んで貰えると思います。観光地も沢山あるので楽しんで下さいね。
次の日本旅動画楽しみにしています。
Thank you for the video. Although of JR Rail Pass, did you pay extra fees for this trip to Hokkaido?
Thankfully, there are no reservation fees attached to the JR Pass we bought. I think the only extra fees would be if we decided to upgrade to first class, or take one of the overnight sleeper trains.
Thank you Very mucho for your reply. I am planning to do this trip but from Hokkaido to Tokyo 😊.
We have been comparing the regular cost of fares against the JR Pass, and it’s definitely worth it if you plan to use trains. For us, the cost will equal out after a week of use, and that’s for the 21 day ticket. We will probably ‘save’ $600 per person at the end.
Have fun on your trip! Hokkaido is really cool 🙂
My favorite city is Sapporo,Hokkaido❤️
Hi. Did you paid for the 2nd train to Saporo. The slowone? See you in a machine geting a ticket?
G’day, don’t forget to try some ekiben on your train journeys
Definitely writing this down as a must 😊
Dear fst love from🇧🇩
I'm thinking about taking the bullet train from tokyo to niseko - did you say it took about 10 hours?
Hey you are following one of my other favorites Gabriel Travel would be neat if you did a crossover episode 😊
I can't wait to go to Sapporo
By the way which hotel did you stay the first night?
Didn't you eat an ekiben on the Shinkansen?
Ekiben are special lunch boxes.
I wanted to try those.
Next time we will have to try one 😋
I subscribed. Im watching. Im visiting Japan Jan. 15, 2023. 💚🌍
Have fun on your trip! Japan is spectacular
Do they have food facility inside train?
Love the bloopers lmao 🤣
Hi, can you please tell me how much did it cost to get from Tokyo to Hokkaido? I always wanted to go to Hokkaido when i was studying over there but I didn't have a chance. Now that I'm going back tokyo for a trip, I wanna see if I could go there on my own. Thank you in advance.
