Thank you for joining us on another journey with "Zurashi Travel"! This time, we took a round trip from Tokyo to Shizuoka using the tour service. While the fastest option on the Tokaido Shinkansen is the "Nozomi," we opted for the "Hikari" as our destination was Shizuoka. Normally, using a reserved seat in the ordinary car costs ¥6,410 one way, totaling ¥12,820 for a round trip. Green car seats are priced at ¥8,740 one way. However, we managed to enjoy a 【Superb Value Trip】 for only ¥11,800 round trip, which even included a sushi meal valued at ¥2,880. We're excited to share this incredible deal with you, although it's a secret we're hesitant to reveal!
This fantastic deal can typically be booked through "JR Tokai Tours" or "JTB" as it's not available at the Midori no Madoguchi ticket counters. I personally made my reservation through "JTB," which allowed me to choose from slightly earlier departure times. Additionally, I'll let you in on a secret on how to purchase the highly sought-after Japanese whisky "Yamazaki," even the 12-year-old version which is currently scarce!
You'll also get to experience the Green Car with its stunning views of Mount Fuji, a sight that foreigners eagerly anticipate, as well as a comparison with the ordinary seats. Departing from Tokyo Station, you'll have the opportunity to admire various trains, Tokyo Tower, and other landmarks along the way.
I hope you'll watch this video and consider embarking on a delightful journey yourself. You'll catch glimpses of the N700s, Doctor Yellow, Sunrise Izumo/Seto, Yamagata Shinkansen, Keihin-Tohoku Line, Tokaido Line, and more. By the way, we traveled on the latest N700s train. Don't miss out on highlights like enjoying matcha and traditional Japanese sweets at "Ekiben" and "Suruga Castle," viewing Mount Fuji from "Nihondaira Yume Terrace," trying the "Most Intense Matcha Ice Cream in Japan," and encountering the "Doctor Yellow" train. There's so much to enjoy, so please have a great time!
For our international viewers, we encourage you to visit Japan and replicate this fantastic experience.
