@Kuga’s Travel - Are you excited for the 2025 Osaka World’s Fair? Do you think you’ll cover it?? Will Japan introduce any architecture there as cool as your 1970’s metabolism exhibit!??

As an introvert, you have no idea how much I wish we had these types of private rooms in public transport over here in Australia Over here it's considered too antisocial

@canadianwolf2895 Жыл бұрын

I wish we had this in Canada. Also wish we had better trains to trek cross country. All we have in that dept are way over priced, very old, very ugly VIA rail. Travel/ touring busses equally ugly, crampy, and overpriced. Id trek my country all the time if even a few of our busses or trains were even 50% as nice and affordable as what is in Japan.

@ethangrant8736 Жыл бұрын

The reason trains don’t have these kinds of rooms is because too many people take them, if they were to seperate trains in this manner they’d become significantly more scarce and thus unaffordable

@canadianwolf2895 Жыл бұрын

@@ethangrant8736 I dont think they would become unaffordable. If more people used the services they would profit more. As it is, millions would just rather pay to fly. If one is to be crammed and uncomfortable in an ugly mode of transportation, best to get it over with as quick as possible.

It's a shame Kuga didn't do a little more on Kinosaki itself. It's a really delightful town and a highlight of a previous trip to Japan, staying overnight in a traditional Ryokan and visiting the many onsens in the town, with sakura 🌸 on the trees lining the main street either side of the canal. We got limited express 🚆 from Osaka to Kinosaki and then from Kinosaki direct to Himeji the next day, no 🚌 for us that time, but thanks for sharing the experience of the coach with a private room.

Been to Kinosaki and loved it, even took the same route down to Himeji afterward. I've since recommended it to others who have visited Japan.

I love and hate Japan travel videos in equal measure lol. Just everything makes travel in most other locations seem "just not so good". The private room/Loan of goodie bag was just amazing. And wth - self heating Ekiben !! When i go to Japan again, I can see me enjoying more than just the peak of rail travel (Shinkansen). So many bus / ferry options that are amazing ! Great video as always.

Keep these types of videos coming! With JR raising the price of the Japan Rail pass to such an extreme, more tourists may be interested in taking the bus or ferry instead of a train. I would take this bus.

Including the a.r. glasses seems insane, and at first I thought it’d be something cool … but if it’s just an imaginary floating screen - even though there’s a real screen *right there* in the room!! - then that’s just lame.
