Years ago I took an overnight ferry from Greece to Italy. There was actually a fancy 1 that had a swimming pool, etc but my ex was being pragmatic & said we could take the budget 1. Well it was truly budget. The room had bunk beds, 1 office chair from the 1950s & a sink. Toilet was down the hall & shared. The crew only spoke Greek & the officers only Italian. Food options were absolutely minimal. Wouldn't do that again. Yours looked fantastic in comparison!

A few years ago I took a ferry from Tokyo to Hokkaido, from I think the same line, and it was wonderful. A mini cruise. It makes me sad that there aren't the same thing here in the States (other than Alaska.
: :edit: : I just watched the video Paul Lucas and realized I'm two types of Travellers in me. One, for business, I want the fastest and most efficient, but if I'm just traveling I want the slowest.

You don't need to use the slippers in a tatami mat room, those are for going around the ship (or ryokan\onsen\whatever. There are another pair in the bathroom, those are only for putting them on while you are there. Sometimes you will also get a set of clothes for going around, usually being yukata-style robe, belt and a matching jacket, I kinda was expecting those too on this ferry.

Great video. I've seen lots of these Japanese ferry videos and am always amazed by how empty they look. I'm interested in how you write your scripts. They are so crisp and all have this same great cadence. Do you outline what you want to cover, do it on the spot, or in post production. You both make it look so easy and seemless but the behind the scenes prep must be immense.

sleeping on the floor is nothing for me but then again I'm from next door in South Korea originally. Pocari sweat is a delicious sports drink also very popular in Korea. You can find it at japanese markets and korean markets here in the US.

Having travelled extensively, including to Japan several times, I find the ferry very intriguing. However, I would always prefer a western room and I absolutely prefer western toilets to Japanese ones.

I have had the same of traveling from Kyushu to Osaka. My idea was to slow down and a new way of traveling.
Thank you very much, Suzanne and Jeb, for sharing your experience video with us.

As much as I love the idea of the Japanese style rooms, I stayed in one a few years ago when I visited Japan and my back hurt after sleeping on it: . So It's gotta be western style for me.

I watch the Japanese travel reviewers. They have never been in the room you picked. And the Sunflower song is awful. You should have taken the suites they are better.

Love it, Jeb and Suzanne! I would love to book a Japanese style room, but alas, I'd have to go Western. I can get on the floor. Getting back up is another story!
