- We arrive in Japan and take the famed Shinkansen bullet train from Tokyo all the way to Kyoto. We used our Japan Rail Passes for the trip - which was very easy, links below. The Shinkansen bullet train ride was about 2.5 hours long. This video ends after we arrive in Kyoto, but stay tuned for many more videos about the things we do in Japan!

I just got on the Shinkansen 2days ago! From Tokyo to Kyoto.Thank you so much come to Kyoto!
日本を紹介してくれてThank You！！
Amazed at how well you two were hanging in there after having just arrived. The first day for me after crossing an ocean is usually a painful fog.
Thank you! Yeah it was definitely a bit difficult but we had so much to do in such little time that I wouldn't let that stop us. :D
I miss the Shinkansen......We went to Kyoto from tokyo as well and Kyoto to hiroshima.....was great
Great seeing you making videos again!
(Sorry for the delayed response). Thank you!! I was really busy moving but now that I'm getting settled I really want to get back into CZcams and push myself! :D
Wow that's wonderful!
Thank you! It really was a fun experience. 😃
So beautiful mam thank you so much for shared yours journey experience
Agree, good tip about the Rail Pass. We hope to visit Japan next year, it's been on our list for years.
Thank you! Oh that's so exciting!! Any places in particular you're planning to go to in Japan?
No particular places although Kyoto does look interesting.
I didn't get to spend as much time in Tokyo, but between the two I admit I enjoyed Kyoto better. Hope I can go back someday!
Oh wow I would love to visit Japan and so cool you rode the bullet train and great tip about the tickets
It really was a great trip, hope to go back someday and explore more! Have you ever been or would like to?
Very informative video always enjoyed watching your videos.
Thank you so much, I'm glad to hear that you enjoy them! You're too kind. 💕
Thanks for the tip on the Japan Rail Pass! I have plans to go to Japan next year but I haven't started researching it yet.
No problem! Glad I could share a helpful tip. I'm sure you'll absolutely love Japan, it was amazing and I CAN'T WAIT to go back already haha! 😄
Rode the Shinkansen Tokyo to Kyoto it was an awesome experience going again in May
Ah that's awesome you get to go back soon! I hope I can make it back someday as well. Thanks for watching 😃
I am Dr. D. Kumar m.sc, Ph.D/ Professor/ Chemistry. Really good bullet train travel in JAPAN. Very nice. Thanking you
Really like your first music choice. Figuring out money is always hard while traveling lol. I usually have the same issue when handing people money. Good tip on rail pass.
Thank you, I always struggle trying to find god music haha. Yeah it definitely took us awhile to get used to using Yen, I need to download a phone app converter or something lol. :)
The legroom in the bullet train is amazing! Were you in 1st class? Great tip about the Japan rail pass.
Thanks, glad to help! We weren't in first class, but in the "Reserved" section since we booked our tickets ahead of time at the ticketing booth when we exchanged our rail passes. 😊
If you want to stay more large room in big city like Tokyo or Kyoto,I recommend using airBAB.
And when in countryside,stay ryokan! Especially with onsen,definately can relax and comefortable,and can eat delicious japanese traditional and local food.Almost of ryokan is tatami room,very japanese.I recommend!
「明日 京都に 行くだっちゃ」、、は聞き取れました
The Japan Rail Pass may be worthwhile, depending on how much travel people may do between major cities on Japan Rail (JR) lines. I used on for 2 weeks of a month-long holiday.
I recommend travelling on the bullet "shinkansen" trains at least once.
Really enjoyed the Vlog, Japan is Amazing 👍
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it. 😃 It really was an amazing trip, you should go if you can!
Wow both cities are very good actually...you will make video OSAKA & SAPPORO cities...thank you.
My son keeps saying he wants to ride the bullet train. Thanks for the tip about buying the rail pass ahead of time.
It was a really wonderful ride with great views along the way! I bet he would enjoy it. No problem, I'm happy to pass along the tip. :D
The bullet train can definitely be a highlight in Japan! Big Engineer (5yo) share's a kid's perspective on the bullet train here: czcams.com/video/W3SxlgZWNg4/video.html
The Japan Rail Pass is popular with visitors, but you can't use it for the 'Nozomi' Shinkansen we rode in the video; you can still upgrade to the First Class 'green cars' from a Japan Rail Pass, however.
बहुत अच्छा लगा
Did you guys do one night in tokyo before moving onto kyoto?
Wow, super cool video! Were the two of you flying in from different cities?
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! 😃 Yes, I flew in from Santa Ana, California and Erica came from Seoul. It was fun to meet up somewhere new to explore and catch up!
What a fun idea! I hope you two plan another trip like that in the future.
Hello. How was the room for your check in luggage on shinkansen? I'd probably have 2 check ins to carry since I`ll be staying longer in Kyoto, but I wonder if there will be enough room for luggage storage on shinkansen. Thanks!
Hello, thanks for watching! Right when you get on there is a little closet-like area for people to put their luggage in. Erica and I both had luggage and on our first ride we put it in this space. On our ride back to Tokyo we actually put in the overhead storage above our seats and near our legs since there was lots of legroom. Hope that helps!
So true about buying the Rail Pass ahead of time! Such a good point. How good is the shinkansen! Makes me want to go back to Japan. :)
Thanks! Yeah we were confused more people didn't know to buy it ahead of time. Oh well haha. So you've been to Japan too? That's awesome! What was your favorite part?
Linny yokattane‼︎ your stay Japan
Riding the Shinkansen. Fortunately you took the Hikari rather than Kodama which stops everywhere. It's like a local train.
Oh thats interesting, I admit I didnt know that. Thank you so much for watching!
i live in kyoto.
plz come again, after the coronavirus.
It's on our list to visit as soon as we can!
ジャパンレールパスほしいなぁ（日本国内で入手困難）
I had no idea the Rail Pass was difficult to get in Japan, good to know. Thank you for watching!
ultimamente son muchisimos los extranjeros que hacen estos videos. Solo espero que cuando llegue siga siendo Japon y no una mezcla de varios paises.
Hi! How come you changed trains from Tokyo to Kyoto? We took the Shinkansen Nozumi from Tokyo to Kyoto which then went on to Osaka.
Hello! Sorry for my delayed reply, that's a good question I should have mentioned in the video. After reaching Kyoto station from the bullet train, we switched to the subway to get to Sanjo Station which was where our hotel was. How did you like the Shinkansen? 😀
It was a great experience, loved to be able to get a clear shot of Mt Fuji for which we had specifically got seats on the right side.
Wow, that's awesome! I must say I am jealous, it was cloudy for our entire stay in Japan so we weren't able to see Mt. Fuji. Next time! Glad you got to see it though 😃
Why does every foreigner say Kyoto like Ki-Yo-To. There are 3 syllables just not where you think. It’s kyō~to. Kyo-oh-toh きょ-う-と. U after oh is ō.

Music???
Hi, linnyis
I'm Japanese burn and raised in Tokyo and this is my first post on youtube.
I know this is a sort of stupid question, what is attractive point of Tokyo and Japan.
As to Tokyo in particular, I get use to the places where is many youtubers film and tourism spots as well.
This is serious questions.
Is Japan such a strange and a funny place?
Actually, I've been in London and Paris over ten years.
I think each countries have each goodnesses where tourists are satisfied.
No offence. why Japan? that's I really want to know.
Good train, but expensive tickets
Definitely! I was glad we got our rail passes ahead of time to cover the cost both ways, but it cost a pretty penny for sure. Thanks for watching!
Been All over.
Thank you for watching!
crazy little bath!! BUT that is japanese standard size
Ah good to know! Thanks for watching 😃

Kyoto should be pronounced like kyohto, not kiyoto.
Ahh sorry for my off pronunciation, thanks for the heads up! 😃

It's not a big deal.
何もかもが狭くて、ごめんねー
Sorry that every place and every things are so small .
Oh I didn't mind the things that were small, I hope it didn't sound like I didn't like them. I thought it was really cool and a great experience. 😀 Thanks for watching
どうせ大した事 言ってないので～観てるだけだっちゃ～
狭い部屋が嫌なのなら、ちゃんとしたホテルに泊まりなさい。安く泊まろうとするからそのような部屋になってしまうのです。
Definitely! We stayed at that hotel for the good price since we only needed to stay a night, it was a great experience. Thanks for watching!

こう言う貧乏旅行者は要らんわ
プライベートジェット出来て帝国ホテルに泊まる客だけでいい
we couldn't see bullet train anymore.. very bad vlog
I went on a tour of Japan in 1985. The bullet train only traveled at 210 kmh back then. Went to Hiroshima. Then onto the southern island of Kyushu to Fukuoka. Food not so filling. 7/11 was a good choice for me also.
Wow, that's really cool! I can only imagine that Japan was much different at that time. How was southern Japan? I didn't have the chance to visit that area but hopefully someday. 😊
linnyis it was really warm and I did not realize that the southern island was so big. We took a local slow train to Beppu. The volcanic town of sulphur hot springs. Smelly. Would liked to have gone to Nagasaki and Kagoshima, which is very tropical. I felt very safe in Japan. Melbourne Australia is not so much at present. Cheers.
What an awesome trip! Beppu sounds really interesting (although smelly haha). I'll have to look it up! Yeah it would have been fun to explore the more tropical side of Japan. Maybe you'll just have to visit again! That's what I'm saying anyway, I would love to go back someday. :)
linnyis I would love to go again. At the time I was in my early twenties. What I did not know then was that I had chrons disease. So thirty two years later it would be a trip that might be to strenuous. Insurance cover is hard to get also. Pre existing conditions. But it's a great country and there was so much to see. Milkimoto pearl farms was great. I also missed out on a Kobe steak. A$85.00 then. More now. All the best.
