The article discusses a couple's experience traveling on the Shinkansen bullet train in Japan, specifically choosing the premium Gran Class tickets costing about $230. They appreciated the comfortable seating and complimentary snacks and drinks, enhancing their travel experience from Tokyo to Nagano as part of their trip to the ski destination of Hakuba. This luxurious train ride turned out to be one of the highlights of their vacation, reinforcing their decision to invest in the premium option rather than standard seating.
Our two tickets aboard the Kagayaki train from Tokyo to Nagano cost 34,480 yen, or about $230. Standard seats would've been closer to $55 a piece, but we were intrigued by the premium perks.
We were intrigued by the premium perks, like comfy seats and additional amenities and services. I'm so glad we upgraded - our time spent in the luxury of the Shinkansen Gran Class was a highlight of our Japanese vacation.
