  • We are suckers for night trains and sad there are so few regular service ones left in the world. When we learned there was one final remaining sleeper service train in Japan, we KNEW we had to ride it! This is the Sunrise Express, which is actually 2 trains that are joined together until Okayama. We rode the train from Tokyo to Okayama, where we exited to view the trains decouple. An amazing train ride that we'd do again!

    That’s the sleeper train my Japanese husband wants to book and go all the way to Izumo , but……now after we watched your video, maybe we can book two single berth , seems it’s easier than booking a double 😊. Thx for the information 😊

      We basically had no chance at the double. It took a few nights of trying to get these reservations! I think the doubles are the first ones booked by Japanese. Have a backup day if this is important to you. It's all part of the experience! 😊

    I understand the feeling of not being able to sleep.
    It is a precious experience that even Japanese people may or may not experience once in their lives.

    Thanks for the Sunrise video. When I retired, I took this night train from Tokyo to the town where my family was waiting for me.
    It was a memorable trip, different from Shinkansen and airplanes.

    The Sunrise Express is the last "regular" sleeper train in Japan. There are other sleeper trains in Japan, but they are all "cruise trains" and are outrageously expensive.

    Wonder if you’ve ever heard of the product called No Jet Lag, I used it last month on a 12 day trip to Tokyo, Okinawa and Osaka! This product is used and highly recommended by pilots and others who travel. It helped me transition especially coming home to Hawaii. Just subscribed and I love your channel!

    In the past there were many sleeper trains running in Japan. However, as the demands decreased and the Shinkansen network expanded, Sunrise is the only regular service night train in Japan now.
    If more tourists, particularly from abroad, have more and more interests and rides in the sleeper train, the night train service may be revived, which many in Japan also wish.
