- I took a brand new Meimon Taiyo Ferry from Osaka to Fukuoka. It just went into service on the 28th of Mar. 2022. Its First Class Deluxe was awesome.
The fare in the video included extra charge for using it alone.
When two people stay together, it costs 31,680 JPY / 254 USD (15,840 each / 127 USD each)
*The price may change depending on the season

Thanks for watching
I noticed other comment here that ”we” are travelling… That’s right you are not travelling alone but with us. Thank you for taking us to nice cruise again. We had nice cabin and delicious food. 😁
I’m disabled and travelling anywhere & staying in a balanced way so I can go see things or even say walking in the countryside is extremely rare.
But I’m quite happy to see things through someone else’s eyes and camera 😀 a lot less painful too. I’ve seen so many things around the world I consider myself lucky to have the internet, when I was in the last year of school before going to high school we got 1 pc in school that didn’t really do much 🤨 I wouldn’t have considered the idea of being at home and watching someone take me on their trip and experiences 🙂
*The Internationale gets louder*
I’m so hungover your comment made me cry lol
Yea cause thats exactly like ha in someone with u.... no interactions because the video is probably weeks after the trip... bet u tell urself u ha e alot of friends just from people replying to u on the internet? Lmao pathetic
The sheep have a new current event besides ukraine now get with the programming npc lmao
Grilled scallop, grilled scallop, grilled scallop.. YES 🇺🇲🙋🏻♀️
I love that the dock workers wave the ship Bon Voyage and that passengers wave back 🥰. It's a very sweet tradition.
Me too I'd love to see that wish more dock workers did the wave saw one time too they even Stood on the loading bridge and waved out the open window so cute 🥰
Isn't there a similar ritual at the airports throughout Japan?
Well, gives off the Titanic vibes. Granted, there’s no ice berg to hit but still….
It’s sad that those balloons will end up right in the ocean. Japan is not as aware of the environmental damage of single use packaging and garbage as other parts of the world. I first noticed this in the 1980s when a Japanese exchange student who stayed with my family commented on how Japanese beaches were full of garbage, unlike California beaches.
@@davidb8373 you think California beaches are cleaner because Americans don't pollute the oceans?
The camera shake upon discovering the glow stick, and when the boat's horn went off, are two of my favorite parts. I love that your videos always have little things like that that make me laugh or smile and give us a hint to the personality behind the camera. 🙂
Yes
She got so excited, me too 😂
That got me so excited and I couldn't stop laughing! So cute. He got so scared lmao
You REALLY snatched that glowstick up with passion! lol
5:29 I can feel how excited you are here even without seeing the expression on your face.
I was sitting there, going 'Kitsuto-Katsuto?' until the glowstick waving, and while I was enjoying just how much effort went into the crew giving the ship a nice send off, I went, 'Oh, Kit-Kats!'
I think the small "tsu" is silent and makes kind of a "k" sound when you pronounce it... (I am not a native Japanese Speaker but hope it helps!)
*Strawberry* Kit-Kats!! 😛
@@hyc13 not necessarily a "k" sound but it cuts the previous vowel short
@@ALexpWTFISTHAT You're correct, I keep forgetting that when I translate.
Ship: Offers Buffet
Solo Travel Japan: Alright, im about to put them out of business...
Great Videos man.
Magnificent buffet 😁
That wasn't sleep STJ - that was a food coma...... :D
Your delight at the glow stick brings me so much joy. 😆 If it makes you feel any better, I would have been right there with you waving too, my adorable friend.
The waving part is really touching it's like a loved one is wishing you a safe trip I love it... The cabin is spacious nice 👍☺️ and the best part is the sun rise 🌞 well it's a relaxing eps. See you on your next trip ☺️👍❤️
My husband is watching golf on tv right now, I am sitting next to him watching your video, when you picked up the glow stick I started getting really excited waving my pretend glow stick in my hand! Now I can wave with a glow stick! Then you said calm down! I had to laugh out loud! Thank for that! I always enjoy you videos! ❤️
Love when we travel first class! Thanks, STJ! 👏👍😎❤
Love travel nice TANKS ! FROM SVEDEN
Free glowstick to wave with! I know it's for a special event but Ferry Sunflower really needs to up their game now ;)
Hilarious!!!
Solo Travel Japan's internet fame has reached a point that staff don't just wave, they release balloons in his honor. :)
Boooo releasing balloons
Ah yes, let’s release litter in the form of helium and wind.
The ferry looks brand new ( it is! ) but we know in 10 years it will still look the same, brand new looking! Amazing!
Right? Every ship in this channel is so clean, even the old ones
And 20 years later, it would be sold to ferry operators in the Philippines and be radically altered (at least externally, that is...)
I laughed at the reacton to the glow stick! Also, the food looked super goodand I really wish I could have that quality kind of buffet around here.
The reaction to the glow stick made me laugh, too. Then when the inevitable curry showed up in the second trip through the buffet, I laughed again.
The electric door in the hallway was freaky though. What if the ship gets a blackout? Passengers can't get out.
@@roberth.skorpen6823 That'll be easy to locate in the dark and listing ship...
@@roberth.skorpen6823 I guess you haven't studied recent ferry accidents. Typically all systems go out despite backup systems being in place.
@@smokeonthewater5287 usually doors like that are a mag-lock (fire prevention) in case of no power, the mag is off, so it will surely slide.
Your videos are so relaxing-if I woke up in the middle of the night because i can't sleep, your channel is always my first choice!
Their enthusiastic waving and balloons made up for the lack of a special ferry song. ⛴️😂
I wish I could have seen your expression when you saw that glow stick. Lol! That looks super awesome though! I love just watching your adventures! Cheers from the USA
I completely agree! I could feel his excitement when he saw the glow stick!!
You just made my day….. Lots of rotten news this week. I love your ferry adventures…..it’s my dream to travel like you. Thank you. Please keep making these adventures so we can vicariously travel through you. ❤️
Such a nice closure 🙌 It's like some sort of a compensation for the other time, when you bought a light stick, so that you could wave at the guys on the platform, but couldn't, because the deck was closed 🚢
I'm so glad you didn't drop the camera 😁 Thank you for this lovey video! 🎇
So not only did you get to wave off to those at the dock, they provided the glow stick? Not only that, right after Solo gets to chow down on two kinds of curry? Don't want to jinx it but it looks like everything is coming up Solo.
I liked the design of that room as well, the wrap around from the headboard to the seating area to the desk was a nice look. The bathroom, though on the small side, was completely serviceable. Looked like a really nice trip, thanks for sharing.
It was the maiden journey so who knows what will be provided during regular operations.
My feeling is going on a decent length ferry ride is like a low key cruise.
You’re out on the water and can get some nice fresh air,exercise, and rest.
It’s of course less like a party but still can be very relaxing. In addition less formal.
When you grabbed that glow stick … I think I fell in love sight unseen. Lol
I was SO excited to see the glow stick they provided you!
I was so excited to see you released a new video and then……the glow stick! Thank you for sharing and making my weekend so much better.
This ship appears to have more signs in English but I'm afraid I'd still be completely lost. But I'd still love to take a trip!
simple life and yet you find humors in every small things..😇🥰🤣🤣
You are awesome!! I laughed out loud when you found the glow stick in your room! So cool! Your videos always brighten my day! Thank you for sharing your travels and your fun! All the best to you from the US! 😀😀
I’ve been meaning to ask you to show us what things are for sale in the small shops on the ferries. Thank you for doing it in this video
Oh i love the new Ferry! And the wave off. I'm glad i didn't have my AirPods in at the moment. That must have been loud!
I am using my headphones... yes it was loud!
A ferry with a string quartet playing in the foyer. That surely has to be a first. Loved the send off with the glow sticks, balloons and the ship's horn, not surprised it made you jump, they can be very loud.
That cabin was as well appointed as the one I had on a medium size cruise liner for a trip halfway around the World. Another really interesting video and I like the little touches of humour you add to your descriptions.
I might be wrong but I think the string quartet was there because it was one day after the release of the ship to the public. A kind of celebrating thing for the people who are first to use the ship. I don't know if they are there if you go on the same trip a year later. But if you know the answer, hey let me know!
Your genuine excitement at seeing the glow stick brought me much joy, thanks for the giggle!!
For the first after watching many of these videos of yours, it sounds as if there are other passengers and you are not alone !
So enjoyed that you finally got your light saber. Lovely; if I ever get to go to Japan, I want to ride the ferry lines.
I'm so happy they gave you a waving glow stick , as soon as I saw the glow stick I told my self now he can wave to the crew , I'm so happy for you , enjoy your voyage
They weren't messing around with those balloons! Thanks for taking us along on another adventure
It's a good day when a new video comes out. Much love from Texas, USA!
Loved this video. So glad you got to use the glow stick!!!!
As an American, that breakfast is a bit... Shocking. Never seen or heard anything like it.
How neat it must have been to be able to be one of the first passengers on a brand new ferry. That room is very beautiful and looks comfortable. I wonder if I'm the only one that noticed what looked to be a face made of ketchup on your mini Italian hamburger steak. Lol. It looked as though it was surprised. 😯 It's left eye (or right, looking at it, is either closed or missing. 😂
What a beautiful start for a maiden voyage!
I really enjoy your presentation style. No voice, just pleasant captions. I have never been so at peace when traveling. A definite sub; I'm looking forward to more of your travel vids.
I always love noticing a new video from you, guarantees at least a few minutes of calm and gentle cheer in the day
Perfect way to describe it.
Always enjoy your videos
Watching you and the port folks waving I thought how nice it is to see people just doing something so simple but so nice. The world we live in now is so hard and negative so it warms me to see this. Happy journies to you!!
👍🏼So excellent that you were able to make this initial voyage, and that the trip was to Kanmon Strait area! 😎✌🏼
You did it! You got to wave with your glow stick! The ship looked so nice! What a nice route!
The new ship looked amazing! The room was very nice as well, and I got excited when I saw the glowstick, although not as excited as you were, I bet! You got to wave back this time!
The food looked amazing as well, luckily I just ate, or I would be getting hungry.
You finally waved that glow-stick! 🎇🎈Glad to see it, and on such a lovely ship too! 🛳 🗾
Oh, yes! Just the right video at the right time, this is a perfect ending of my evening. Domo arigatou!
Grilled cheese curry rice... epic
Same here ✋ Perfect timing for a relaxing, yet interesting, video, before calling it a day... 😴 TY! 🙏
Continued greetings from Canada. My weekend is always made better with your travel videos, I hope to be able to travel again soon!
I want beef rice curry so bad but no Japanese restaurants where I live. Love the food parts and rest of video fantastic. Thank you
Beautiful moment.. balloons in the air❤️✨🌍
…… then rubber in the sea, in the fish ……
I should have been born Japanese. Love your culture and videos 😀
I love how the traveller makes us feel we are travelling with him! I never k ew so much about Japan…amazing! But my favourite part of the video are his commentary! At times Im actually laughing! Thank you for this cool video! :)
Nice video! This is the ferry company I want to try when Japan reopens.
This was such a fun video to watch. Such a lovely journey, I especially liked the wave good-bye, the sunrise and had a laugh when the the loud boat horn scared you! Thanks so much for sharing. 😃
it’s like on the cinema, i’ve always jump in the beginnings of the movie
The theme song its like the ship about to sink
Wow... that must have been an awesome experience! Enjoy your weekend!🌅🛳️🥂
Laura from the USA here. Congratulations!! The staff left you, and only you, your first glow stick!! (Or rather your first working glow stick) I almost felt like the balloons were for us!🍭 You and your subscribers!! This was one of your better videos and I thank you!! 🇺🇸❤🌍🌎🌍☮🇯🇵
When they let the balloons fly into the air, wow, that was so beautiful.
I’m sure the fish will eventually think so too xx
I loved that both parties were too polite to stop waving 👋🤭
Such a nice send off thanks for sharing! I love these videos.
You make me smile brother. When I come to visit Japan after I will the lottery, how will I ever identify you? You never show your face. If I travel on a Ferry in Japan, and you happen to be on the same one, I wouldn't even know!!! It's good to see you in a beautiful cabin, good sea conditions, and eating well. Look forward to the next my friend. Greetings and well wishes, from Washington, USA.
You would know by the camera always being pointed at something
@Tennozu dont know but you can always ask
I thought the glow stick was a cool looking pen!😂 That is a very cozy cabin! I am surprised that the door had key locks instead of cards,since it's a new ship. Always happy to travel along with you!❤️
That little send-off hit me right in the soul-quiet glowstick waving, quiet balloons. It was so precious. I was yelling YATTA under my breath as I watched it.
Such a nice send off!!! 🎈🎈🪅Love that we got to wave bye this time!!!! Ship and cabin looked amazing - still had that 'new car' smell, lol. I jumped too when the steam whistle blew, even though you warned us, lol. Thanks for taking us along!!!
Your videos make me want to visit Japan and just ride the ferries. I love them all.
One can tell you got a fright from the horn blowing. That was epic.
Nothing much better than a new STJ video!
I was surprised at the old-fashioned door locks, however.
I love the glow stick "I will wave for everyone" spirit!
Wow the new ship looks awesome and the buffet was a very good deal. That sashimi looked really delicious. The waving ever was impressive too!
Concert musicians on a ferry. That's classy Japan for you. I had to stop the video at 18:19 to get something to eat. All that delicious looking food made me very hungry.
I started my graduation project this week and have been so, so stressed and didn't realize how much peace and laughter your videos give me! When I get ready for bed, I know that I can travel another leg of the journey in your camera lens, so thank you for all the fun comments, great and honest critiques and comments, and all the laughter you share with us! This one felt especially heartwarming because of the pure joy the glowsticks gave 🤗 Lots of support, appreciation, and love from Hawaii! 🥳
Damn I just watched your food video for sahur and now a ferry video?! I guess I have to wait until iftar to watch it while eating
I'm moving to Japan this summer. I can't wait to travel by ferry like this!
This was fabulous. What a beautiful ship. Thanks so much.
I'm from the Philippines but I still enjoy watching your videos, getting to know more on how to go around Japan. Hoping to go back there soon.
Philippines is also a island country like Japan so i guess you guys also have a lot ferry too. How does Philippines's ferry compare with Japan's ferry?
I want that tray / plate of 9 sections 🙋🏻♀️🇺🇲
I laughed so hard when the whistle made you jump and nearly drop your camera. Loved the send-off. It was so nice, wholesome and…. Japanese. Keep going with the fascinating videos. Ganbatte!
A statue of Captain Harlock at the end of your ferry ride. Outstanding. He's my favorite anime character.
Another great ferry adventure..😊. Cabin looks great and dinner was delicious..!. Thank you for making me smile..😚. Always enjoy your videos..thank you so much!..Look forward for your next adventure..😊
I'm learning a lot about the Japanese culture through your videos. I'm American and I like that I get to experience this through you.
Beautiful ship! They should be proud of her.
Wow the cabin has hotel vibes!👍👏👏
Loving those fluffy clouds and the scenery of the sea the sun the sky👏
Thank you for sharing this and waiting for your next video!
Solo-san's caring comment about the staff at the dock is sweet. I hope they enjoyed their dinner too.
Found your channel this weekend and I enjoy the ferry videos very much! Greetings from Norway 🙂
My dad used to live in Osaka. He always spoke of how clean it was and the residents were so polite. ❤️
Such a beautiful ship. I love the water wall with changing lights. I bet everything smelled so new. When so nice a cruise, too bad it's only half a day. And what a send off you got, light sticks and balloons. Thank you for sharing this ride.
That is one brand new ship! It must have been quite an experience! Thank you for sharing it with us! 🙂
What if only you got a glow stick in your room? Maybe the staff knew you were coming 🤔 considerate and also slightly creepy. Haha
All your adventures are super great but this was super fantastic.. I was so excited for you with that glow stick and to be able to wave something you have waited for for so long ..and the food looked absolutely spectacular.. it's a pleasure to be able to share in your JOY..USA..
Happiness is: waking up to a new ferry video from STJ! 🎉🎉🎉
I love your quirky comments 💚. I think I would watch and enjoy your videos, even if you were travelling around in a shopping trolley 🥰
My family and I love watching your videos!
My mom is suggesting you show more around the ship and the products offered in the shops 🤣
Keep safe and keep on traveling, STJ!
The glow sticks and the balloons made me cry it was super cute omg 🥰
I was elated! So niiiice
For some reason, I always thought your videos came out a few days after your trips. Huh. I think I got a lttle excited too when I saw the glow stick. LOL. I can only wish our buffet restaurants were that reasonably priced in the US because the variety is a hell of a lot better than what we got. I'm sure you went into a food coma after eating all that food. I wonder though: Who or what was the statue at the end of?
@@holidaywednesday4069 I believe you are right. Captain Harlock, a great anime from... I want to say the '80s, but maybe the '70s.
The little Orchestra playing made it feel Like the being of a movie 🍿 lol.
😂😂😂😂 couldn’t help laugh when he was startled when the whistle blew making the camera shake.
