- I took Taiheiyo Ferry from Nagoya to Hokkaido Japan. I booked Semi Suite of Kiso this time.
I tried Ishikari's Semi Suite in the stormy weather
Part 1
• Unexpected Semi Suite ...
Part 2
• Taking a Ferry in Japa...
Thanks for watching
It's been a couple of weeks now and I still have the Sunflower song stuck in my head! 😄
🤣🤣🤣🤣 sunflower! Sunflower!🤣🤣🤣 same!!!
🎼🎶🌻🌻😅 Don't we all? 😎✌🏼
You know, in WWII the Japanese would of used the Sunflower ferry song as a method of torture, war crime level of torture.
😂 oh dear 😂
Oh my god! I’d actually managed to forget the 🎵 SuNfLoWeR sUnFlOwEr 🎵 song. You had to remind me, didn’t you! 😖🤣
$282 seems like a great price, for a nice room, 2 nights accommodations, 5 meals and transportation to Hokkaido. The room looks cozy, and has everything I would want, specifically a private bathroom and a window. The Royal Suite is much nicer, but that's why it's more expensive. I'd love to visit Japan, if nothing more than to take one of these ferry trips!
Exactly! Seems like a great deal. I'd love to go
The suite seems like it could sleep 2. Is it still $282 per person if the suite is shared?
You know what ? It's been 2 years since I traveled. I am always at my home because of health problem. And your videos always make me happy and I can see new things
Better than ferries departing for the isle of sky
In the winter of 1983 I was a sailor aboard the USS Enterprise when we sailed across the Tsugaru Straits. I was off watch then and went up to look along one of the walkways along the side of the ship. I was there for a long time. Something was very mesmerizing about it. The way the waves randomly crashed into one another and yet there was a certain rhythm to the randomness. The sea felt very electrifying, very alive. I was aboard the Enterprise for four years and did three deployments on that ship, traveling all over the world. During that time I remember only two areas where the seas were so unique. One was north of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean where the sea was as still as glass. And the other area was the Tsugaru Straits. Thank you for showing that. It brought back good memories.
OMG I had a really bad day and I am so happy that this just popped up. Your videos always calm me and relax me. They are incredibly cathartic. Thank you so much.
😔sorry you had a bad day, I hope your tomorrow will be much better
Hope it ends better, or if it’s already bedtime where you are, I hope tomorrow is better for you x don’t let it sap your energy and joy 🌼
Hope things get better for you tomorrow.
Sorry for your bad day. Mine was dull, but this brightened it up! Frightened tofu!!!
@@Trebuchet48 Even in the U.S. we all have days that suck!
I am so glad that you post this! You help sick people get through the night with joy.
That style of couch you had in your cabin is sometimes called a "day bed" in America, and it usually serves a triple purpose. You can use it as a couch, you can use it as a bed for a nap in the mid day, or it can be a guest bed if you have company over.
The couch material looks like ‘pleather’ (a cheap version of leather). If it is, you can also slide off it or get stuck to it depending on the weather and humidity. 😆😜
@@flu77erluv humid and slippery + rough seas = Disneyland in a cabin.
@@samsanimationcorner3820 Maybe that’ll be Disneyland’s next ride: pleather seat in 100% humidity. 🤔🤣😂😵💫
@@flu77erluv and somehow, the line will still be 2hrs long.
@@samsanimationcorner3820 And just when you get to the front of the line, they will close the ride. 😒🤣😆
The restaurant must be mounted on top of the engines for your tofu to be so scared. The ship was nice and though you may not have been very impressed with the suite, it was much better than many hotel rooms that tourists pay a lot more for. And that forward facing window was really good too. Thank you for the video. One day I really must try Japanese food, preferably in a restaurant that's not shaking.
Love your dry sense of humour. Cheers from NZ 🇳🇿
I love to watch these videos when I have a meal by myself, they keep me company.
What a creepy departure sound!!! And with the weird couch, the wine glasses and the suggestive painting over the bed, I think you might have gotten the honeymoon suite lol!!Great video!
I absolutely love your videos! Ever since I started watching a few months ago I so desperately want to travel to Japan to experience the buses, ferries, and capsule hotels! These videos calm me and put me at ease! Thank you so much!
Please come to Japan! There's so much to discover 🙂
Very interesting. I feel Kiso is the oldest of the three ships style-wise, and looks nice, despite being a bit more worn compared to the other two. Also, it's adorable how you like saying hi to all the other ships you've travelled on, like old friends.🥰
To me the view from your room was the best part of the room. It was lovely! Thank you for another fun trip! 💜
Such a beautiful suite! Love the color combination of the furniture,curtains and bedding. That beautiful, painted Japanese cherry blossoms sink in the bathroom is something I need! Always enjoy your ferry trips!💕😎
another great video, editing, and overall vibe. We are all traveling with you solo. Keep up the great work of showing us Japan!
Thank you for taking us with you. As always this was nice to Travel with you.
With the meals included, the price seems fair. I'm sure there are much faster ways to get where you need to go, but the journey is more enjoyable!🚢
Great video once again. I like it very much too. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for sharing the yummy buffets! I love any kind of Japanese food. Feel hungry right now!
I really need to try Japanese cuisine. There's a Japanese restaurant 2 miles from my house which I've yet to try. The food in STJ's videos always look great. The only Japanese food I've tried is seaweed, and I loved it.
I love your humor!
I really liked this semi suit. The ambiance was lovely. Travel with food included actually seemed reasonable. How were the beds? Were they as comfortable as the Ishikari? Thank you solo San for taking us along. All the best … and happy trails.
The ones on the Ishikari were better. Thanks!
Thank you another very good and funny video 🌻🌻🌻
Love the video! Always look forward to your videos!
へ～かえるさんお久しぶりです！お元気ですか？It's so good to see you again!
Really love the Sunflower song. Very relaxing 😊
Itsumo Gambatte neh....💪
Keep up the good work ...👍
I absolutely love your middle of the night walks around the ship... so peaceful.
Totally awesome you could float in a warm bubble bath while “floating” on the sea!❤️
really nice suite.....thank you for taking us along🛳🚣♂️
I believe the couch is a day bed 😊 i love your videos especially when it's a long trip. Thanks for sharing your experiences ❤
I do like the layout of the Semi-suite. The couch is interesting for the room and it did surprised me.
The room looks cozy just like the rest of the rooms you have shown in the past and the food still looks tasty and fantastic.
Looking forward to more adventures with you and the introduction of different traveling and food of Japan. Thank you, Solo-san, from all the way from Canada. 🇨🇦
Heck I fell in love during the check in process. The rest was a dream. Loved also your humorous comments. 🤗 Thanks for this video.
The real floating hotel ...
Really enjoy the voyage🤗
Happy New Year!!! I look forward to every video/adventure
Frightened tofu! 😀❤️👍🏻 Here in the United States, a salad is definitely more than one lonely piece of broccoli. 😀
I love watching your videos on my lunch breaks at work. They take me back to the country that I miss most. I want to go back to Japan someday. 💕
I really love your funny side comments. It just makes the video more interesting.
Hi, my friend😉🙋♀️. "the couch"... I like it🙈. When I watch your videos, I'll be hungry... 😂. Thx a lot. Greets from Germany. Waiting for your next video 😊🙏
I always love your comments; they are dry and very witty, but the “frightened tofu” was the Best…thank you for these wonderful videos…🙏🏻
"TV too small- spent too much on the couch!" You have the best jokes out of all the Japanese Travel channels I'm subscribed to. Very nice couches in the movie theater- I've never seen that before. I love the food tours of your trays, you have such a good appetite!
You rock STJ. I'm still watching..........
Really look forward to your vids, thank you 🛳
That couch was awesome, I would not mind having one like that in my house.
Very nice video! And ending up in the snow! I had a solemn feeling when you went past Fukushima and into Sendai.....Much respect to you and your beautiful nation!
Thank you for the relaxing trip, that suite was beautiful.
ooh new video when i come home from work. Great way to unwind.
I agree about how the videos make a person happy. Great video
Thanks for making my Sunday at work better!
I looked at both videos on your suggestion and i think the other suite is more suitable for travelling in comfort. I liked the layout better, and even though you got a daybed in the deal it was of no practical use to the suite. It would have made room for a better dining table with at least 2 chairs for you to enjoy whomever you were travelling with. It was a useless waste of space. I liked the bathroom layout, similar to the other suite, but for my money i would book the other suite in the future for any trip i might take. Great video for us to enjoy the experience with you - thaniks
This suite was wonderful and reminded me of a stateroom on a cruise ship. I like the sofa and hope to have one in our home someday. Thank you!
Happy New Year. The ferry looks subarashi
I always enjoy your videos! It's spooky how we can hear people but never see anyone, like Twilight Zone. :). Safe travel!
Greatly enjoyed, another great tour
Impressive 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Ah what a nice and relaxing journey! Thank you for sharing your travels with us. After a rough day (or week or month or year), this is so nice to find waiting for me.
Wow!! This was beautiful!! So comfy!! Feels like home!! I could so live on a ship like this!!
Thank you for sharing another nice trip!
I liked your video very much. Thank you for your attention to details and the fine humor.
Watching these makes me dream of being a traveler just to experience the ferry trips.
U had me in tears again with laughter. I’d be lost traveling on or in anything with to much class!
These videos always make my week better! Thank you 😊
That bathroom is FANTASTIC!!! Makes up for the tiny TV ≽ܫ≼
Thank you for posting. Safe travels.
Thank you!!!!💥💥💥💥💥💥
Very nice needs a balcony tho looks like a great time thanks for sharing 👍
It's been a long time i watched your videos .
It's really awesome and very relaxing.
Quality was too good and also sound.
I like your funny captions 😂 I'm laughing automatically when i read 😂
Thank you for those ☺️
Keep it up, all the very best ❣️
This is the way of fine travelling in early 21st century. A travelling that reveals the future and reminds us of the past
The trip looks like fun. Nice semi suite.
Awesome video STJ, thank you very much...
Interesting insights - thanks for sharing! Have fun traveling & keep it up! 🙂
proudly showing one small piece of broccoli "thats SALAD":D how that could be even cold salad';D
\
Japanese ferry are awesome and this ferry ⛴️ one step beyond ...like a luxurious hotel.. thanks for sharing this beautiful video with us.. Arigato gozaimasu 🙏🙂
Great cruise, if you bring someone the sofa is your favorite place to cuddle!
A large sofa, such as you had in your semi-suite, is called a "divan." I think having the toilet and bathtub in their own separate rooms is a good idea for privacy, if there are more than one person in the room. Having a hard mattress is not pleasant. But I still would prefer this semi-suite cabin to a capsule.
That was a nice trip. I'd take this trip and suite if I got the opportunity. Thanks for sharing!
I really enjoy this video ❤️ thank you so much 😘
I enjoy it the services was top beautiful people Beautiful moments
Finally I am up to date! I fell behind I've been bingeing your last few months of content to catch up. I look forward to your next adventure~
In America we call that a daybed. You can sit on it like a couch or take a relaxing nap like a bed.
The deep fried corn you showed looks like what we call 'corn fritters' in Texas. I make it every summer when the sweet corn is in peak season.
Keep & stay safe always 🙏❤️
GOD bless you 🙏
Freightened tofu... ...you're genius, man. ;-)
Mushroom spaghetti without the mushrooms 🤣
Thanks for always taking us Solo San
It’s a fair price to travel comfortably and it’s a dream of mine to do a Mediterranean cruising this is such a beautiful sharing ❤🎉❤🎉❤
I love this ship and the design being subdued colors in the cabin. I think it would be nice to take a grandchild to get a "taste" of your culture. With a small land tour also. It would all be new to us as Americans. Dream on Yankee (to myself)!
The videos are really calming.
Beautiful room. It’s my room so far I’ve seen.
it is a day bed/lounging bed. can also double as extra sleeping space if you had additional guest. In some bedrooms in America, a day bed comes standard with the primary bed.
Thank you. Greetings from Canada.
That is a very large ferry compared to any I’ve ever been on!
6:20 methinks this is a daybed - it can be used as a sofa in the daytime and as a bed for a third person (esp if a family booked this suite) seems you have lots of choices for where to hangout during this trip 😁🤗
Keep eating my favourite part is watching the food 😂 can you show the buffet spread sometimes if there's no other people ? Thanks you have really good content. I'm going to watch your channel more.
Haven't been on YT for some time,but I'm back 🤗
Always enjoying your videos ☺️🙂👍💯
Hope you have great 2023 💪🎆
Wishing you all the best in the future ❤️
I am always amazed at how much Solo Traveler can eat, especially the rice😙
Ah, but that's the problem with being a RUclips celebrity with a quarter of a million subscribers, Solo-san - you have to eat for all of us! Now go back after some more of that Udon, I'm feeling hungry tonight...
これもすてきな旅ですね！
At that point it’s a short cruise lolol but I’m glad we got to see a 40 hr ferry. I’ve always thought I would personally love to spend more than 12 hrs on a Japanese ferry. Good to know there is an opportunity for that.
Went back I saw the Ishikara video. The couch is weird on the Kiso and so is the one chair. The couch on the Kiso seems to be more for sleeping than sitting on. The Ishikara had the same weird windows, but the drapes hid this. And the bathroom was so much nicer. It definitely shows as newer than the Kiso.
So get the Ishikara if possible from now on. Preferably without a Typhon.
Happy travels.
Your videos ate intriguing. Planning my trip to Japan. Really looking forward to the ferry trips and excellent trains. And food. Did I say food? :)
