Japan fully re-opened to tourists on October 11, 2022 and on October 14, 2022, we hopped on a plan to begin our visit to this bucket-list destination. In this video, we document our journey there, what to expect when traveling to Japan, and some of our first impressions after landing in Osaka.
This video is the first in our Japan series, though we’ll be finishing up our Korea series in the coming weeks before fully jumping into our travels in Japan! Be sure to subscribe to stay tuned, and follow us on Instagram for real-time, daily updates: @awaywithhays

Hello from Japan! 🇯🇵✌This is a sneak peek of what's to come in our Japan series, but we're posting videos a couple of weeks behind here on KZfaq. For real-time, daily updates (and to DM us recommendations, please!), give us a follow over on Instagram: @awaywithhays

18:42 You should not do that. There was an American guy who was sued for that. If somebody sees this video and reports to this shop, they are going to have to close the shop to sanitize the conveyer belt. The guy was charged for that. I advise you to take this video off and take that part out to reload it. This is not a joke.

Japan! So exciting! Yes there are a lot of bikes….I lived in Tokyo for a year and was so excited to ride a bike around, so I got one and then accidentally kept crashing into poles. My point is that the locals make it look much easier than it is. Looking forward to reliving memories! I love the bathtubs too and the wooden cups of sake bartenders always overfill and basically every single food item, except takoyaki.

Thanks to you guys now I know Japan is open again, like for real! TYSM! I plan to go to Osaka in 2023. Also, I shared the same experience with trains in Japan when I went a couple times while I stayed in Korea. Tbh, I think it's a nightmare setup and not as tourist-friendly. I found the train system in Korea refreshing to go back to which I find to be more streamlined and logical, and there are big signs in English and other languages.😅Still, Japan imo is a must to have in a travel bucket list!

@StephandPete Жыл бұрын

Hey there! Thanks for watching! I hope you have an amazing trip next year. And yeah-- I knew Japan was known for trains but didn't think about how complicated they'd be (or just how good we had it in Korea!) Korea was certainly more intuitive. Still wild to me that for both you need cash! We've needed cash for much more here in general. Excited to be here and explore more! More Japan videos coming in a couple of weeks, but first we're going to finish up our Korea series. Did you find us through this video or have you been watching awhile?

I love how like the literally second japan opens you're like YEET Also love how you gravitate STRAIGHT to the sushi on the first day haha xD You'll have to let me know if its really better than Korea! and I wonder how the price compares too!! There is a sterotype that Japan is more expensive than Korea but I'd be interested to know what you think after you've had the time to find out

@StephandPete Жыл бұрын

Hey... pete here :) sorry for the late reply!! we had been waiting so long for Japan to open, so we were straight on it. We found prices pretty similar to be honest, transportation is higher in Japan, but we found some really affordable food/restaurants. We had a blast and really hope you get to go and visit at some point.

I am so looking forward to watching upcoming Japan trip videos! Ironically, even though I am from a neighbouring country, I have never been to Japa! I think I always thought I could travel to Japan easily and chose some other countries where they were much further away. I will learn a lot from your videos and get ready to visit myself someday soon!

I am glad you are enjoying your trip. But why continue to talk on the train after reading and acknowledging the sign? Just rubbed me the wrong way

@Leo-hr7yq Жыл бұрын

This is why many people in Japan (including foreign residents) are not happy that Japan is open for tourists again. The quiet and peace before was amazing. Now it’s gone in Kyoto

@light80050 Жыл бұрын

I think it's ok. The train didn't seem so crowded and they were wearing a mask.

Do you go to Umeda, Tennoji, or Universal Studios in Osaka? In addition to Osaka, Kobe, Kyoto, and Nara are also recommended.
