    We took this shinkansen last march of this year. Our trip was from Tokyo to Hokkaido. It wasn’t cheap but definitely worth the experience! I love their chocolate with flake salt. We even brought home the slippers as souvenirs 🥰

    I love this voice over video! I haven’t added Japan to my bucket list at this time, but I am definitely second guessing it now!

    At 1:01 , The train on the left (Red) will split later on end in Akita, while the train on the right (Green), will end in Hakodate in Hokkaido. 🚄

    It’s a shame this video doesn’t have as many views as your credit card content. I really enjoyed this review as well as your business class flights review.
    Hilarious stuff, but entertaining and educational as well!
    Love your content.

    Nice video! I was wondering is the Grandclass wagon without leaving the train. I want to take the grandclass but only for a short segment of my Hakodate-Tokyo trip. I understand that I need to book two tickets, but i'm not sure about hopping on/off the train.

    Hello. On what routes is the GranClass service available?

    • @ChaseYokoyama
      @ChaseYokoyama  2 місяці тому +1

      Hello! The trains are the Tohoku and Hokkaido Shinkansen (Series E5 and H5 ), Hokuriku Shinkansen (Series E7 and W7 ), Joetsu Shinkansen (Series E7). The routes are Tokyo Station to Shin-Aomori Station near Hokkaido

    Does gran first class ticket routes go from Tokyo to Kyoto?

    • @CreditOneSux
      @CreditOneSux 4 місяці тому

      Unfortunately, no. According to JR (Japan Railways) it's only available on select Tohoku, Hokkaido, and Hokuriku Shinkansen train lines

    • @ChaseYokoyama
      @ChaseYokoyama  4 місяці тому

      Just like CredtOne said, there are no gran class routes to Kyoto. However you can ride the business class equivalent seats in the Green Car on a Shinkansen from Toyko to Kyoto.
