You've calmed some of my anxiety about finding my way around the train station and using the Shinkansen during my first solo trip to Japan that I'll be taking this April! Thank you!!
I'm glad I could be of your help. That's exciting you are coming here for solo trip soon. I wish you the best trip in Japan. :)
Japan has the BEST public transportation! And is very clean. No worries. You can't get lost!
Exactly. I’ve travel a lot but this trip to Japan for the first time has me stressed. So much to plan . But so excited at the same time. This video is great .
Same
Me too I will use the Shinkansen to Kyoto in April 😊
Please do more of these types of detail vlogs. After searching for so many "how to Tokyo to Kyoto", your video is 100% of what I needed to know. Good Job Kenchan. I saved your video to Favourite for my reference! Arigato!
Thank you for watching! I'm glad this video could answer your questions. Have a great trip in Japan. :)
I used this video for my Shinkansen, and it was PERFECT. Followed it to the T, and had the video playing with me on my phone whilst inside the train station. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Thank you for watching! I’m very glad to hear the video was helpful and feel honored the video could guide you in the station. I hope you are enjoying your trip. :)
This is without a doubt the most informative video on how to take a bullet train from Tokyo to Kyoto. Thank you!
Thank you for watching and your kind comment. :)
I'm posting this comment so more people can see this video. A few apps have somewhat helped ease my worry but this is a video actually showing the process of using the machine and how the system works.
Thank you very much.
Thank you for your comment. I appreciate your support. I wish you the best trip in Japan with Shinkansen. :)
This video is what I was looking for. Thank you so much! : )
Thank you. This has been extremely helpful. You help to clear up questions that one might have and were not addressed anywhere else online.Thank you again!
Very informative, Thank You!
Dude, out of all the videos I've watched, nobody else has mentioned platt kodama and they push the JR pass this blows JR pass out the water for someone who is well organised. Thank you, you probably just saved me and the Mrs £80 🎉
Thank you for watching. I wrote in description but somehow they deleted English purchase page for Platt Kodama after this video, so now you might need to go to the counter of JR Central Tours before the departure date. It doesn't come with beer, but you can also save with online reservation for both regular car and green car. th-cam.com/video/zjiIWXZNr5Q/w-d-xo.html Hope you have a great trip.

THANK YOU so much for ALL the videos! I didn't know about luggage size for the bullet train! That is SO helpful in your video!
Yes, both are on the same Tokaido Shinkansen line and Nozomi and Hikari are operation name. Thank you for watching. :)
@@tokyokenchan Oh, I didn't know. I have always taken the ones shown as Hikari and Kadoma trains. Thank you for correction! I think it's Mizuho that does not take the JR pass.
Such good information! Thank you!
You are welcome. Thank you for watching.
Thanks for the informative videos. We will be arriving in Tokyo at the end of November and your videos have made it easier for us to plan our trip.
Thank you for watching. That's great that you visiting Tokyo soon! I'm glad that my videos are helping you to plan your trip.
Thank you for your videos, this particular one is great! I'm travelling from Tokyo to Kyoto for the first leg of my tour of Japan next April, and I found this video very informative and concise. 🚅

Awesome video! Now I'm goingto see if you have one from Kyoto back to Tokyo!
I don't! 😄💦
@@tokyokenchan lol. All good! Wish me luck 🙏 😅
Your explanation on the ticket description is very helpful. Before arriving to Japan I watched your video on getting from Narita airport to Tokyo. I still made the same mistake the person you mentioned in your video made. I was lost but with the help of one lady in particular I was able to Asakusa station. Keep up the good work!
Thank you, I'm glad if this video was helpful. I'm glad to you could make it to Asakusa with the help of the lady, but sorry my video didn't work! The route is complicating especially the Access Express. 😅
This is really helpful and I saw your other videos on how to travel in Tokyo real helpful and you break it down ab bit more.
Thank you for watching. I'm glad you found the video helpful. :)
Thank you so much, as a first time traveler to Japan, your video was informational and I’ve downloaded the app to get tickets!
Thank you! I'm glad you found the video informative. I hope you have a great first time visit to Japan! :)
Very detailed, practical, and useful information. Thank you for making this video.

This is a great video. Thanks for making it.
Thank you for watching and your message:)
Very informative. Thank you so much!!!
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for this video! I'm trying to plan how I'll travel next month from Akita to Hakata. I'm traveling by Shinkansen for my first time from Tokyo but I had a couple of worries, especially considering I don't have any backup plans to stay in Tokyo during my trip. This cleared up pretty much all of my worries about things I should be aware of, and gave me some comfort and confidence I'll make it without any problems!
Thank you for watching! I'm glad if you found the video helpful. The luggage rule applies to only between Tokyo to Kyushu. Akita to Hakata by Shinkansen sound very exciting! Akita Shinkansen in deep snow is one of the ride in my bucket list. :)
Excellent video with very helpful instructions. Thank you from 🇨🇦
Thank you for watching from Canada. I'm glad the video was helpful. :)
Your video is so informative. Thank you . But I find it soo complicated 😅
I'll be visiting Tokyo this April.

Hi!
I got to see you because of TOO MUCH LUGGAGE.
Thanks for your video!
Your voice is super soothing 😌
Thank you for your kind message! It was amazing to see the TH-camr I've seen on Ineternet on the street of Tokyo. They were very friendly and an amazing couple. :)
@@tokyokenchan that's super cool 😎. They are getting better and better.
I can see that you're experienced on TH-cam.
Nice, detailed video and again, your voice is very nice.
Good luck with your chanel
This is exactly the information I needed. I have a JR Rail pass and will be flying into Haneda on 2 days. I’ll be traveling from Yokohama to Kyoto then to Osaka then back to Tokyo. Good to know how to stow your luggage and which seats to reserve. Great video!!! Thank you
Thank you. I'm glad you found the video helpful. I wish you the best trip in Japan. :)
Another great video! Never heard of the platt kodama ticket but is there an English page to book online the day before?
Thank you, Tokyo Kenchan-san for this very informative video. You provided a thorough overview that is very helpful. Arigatou gozaimasu.
Thank you for watching. I'm glad the video was informative for your trip. :)
You put a lot of work into making this video. Thank you for making our upcoming visit smoother and welcoming @@tokyokenchan 😃
@@livingwithpurpose7304 Thank you for your kind message. I hope you have a great tirp in Japan! :)
Great video. Thanks
Thank you for watching. :)
Hi Ken, I am departing 920am Lake Kawaguchiko and arriving at Mishima station 11am Saturday in October and the Shinkansen ride is an hour later. Will 1 hour be sufficient? I am worried of a traffic jam >.
Thanks for helping a Brazilian :)
Very helpful info. Specially explaining which one is available with JR PASS. We tried reserving it on the ticket kiosk but didn’t know which train we should be on other Not the Nozomi. I will try booking it myself again later as the line to talk to representatives are ridiculously long. Thanks again
Yes, the line is quite long and the machine is not that difficult. It only show you the trains you can get on, so no worry. Hikari is the fastest one you can take with the JR pass. I wish you good luck. :)
Great video👍
Thank you!
Excellent information! 素晴らしい！ どうもありがとう
Thank you for watching:)
I should've watched this before going back in April of last year. It was so confusing since it was my first time using the Shinkansen to Osaka from Tokyo. This video is so helpful. This will definitely help for my next trip to Japan.
Thank you for watching. It is confusing. I hope you have a smooth Shinkansen ride in your next trip. :)
Arigatou Gozaimasu for sharing , mata nihon ikitai desu I love Japan 😊❤️👍 tasukarimashita 👍👍
Oh I love that you say direction one the seats.. I I know D and E going to Kyoto I can see Mt Fuji!!!
Yes you can! Thank you for watching. :)
