Hello Kenchan , glad to see your new series video. The food for your mother in this video look so delicious! I can't really find these local food when I visit Japan 🙂 I am going to visit Japan again this year October and next year March.
Tokyo Kenchan! First of all, I want to say thank you! I used your videos and a few others to plan my 16-day trip to Japan in July with my family. All your information was great and very informative and I was able to plan a trip starting in Osaka to Nara to Kyoto to Yokohama & Tokyo. We all had a very nice time and thanks to your videos it made our trip much easier!! Please keep the videos coming…..Arigato!!!
Really really enjoyed this video! I can't wait to visit Japan with my young daughters in Dec from Australia ❤
Thank you for this wonderful video! We are headed to Japan in a few days and have watched almost all of your videos.
Hello Kenchan
We're coming to Japan for 4 weeks in March.
Your videos are helping us plan where to visit/ etiquette etc.
Definitely going to Kobe to reunite with my son's Japanese exchange student (now friend) from 4 years ago.
Thank you
🇦🇺
nice videos Kechan!!!
Kengo-San! I miss Japan so much, I really want to come for a month or two one day. It’s the best country by far to be in! 🙏🏽
Great video! I will share this to my friends who are planning their first Japan trips. Thank you Kengo-san ^^
I plan to bring my mom (65) next year for hanami. Will make sure to always take the elevator even tho she is still a strong walker.
great video!! having visited Japan as a solo traveler, i think it's one of, if not the best, country to visit as a woman travelling solo. i cant wait to visit soon ❤
I always get super excited when I watch your videos! Not long till I'm there for my first ever visit and looking forward to everything you mentioned. As always, thanks for sharing Kenchan!
🙂
Beautiful footage, great info, just awesome Kengo san! And yes, I watched during dinner tonight 😅
My wife and I just secured a 15 day guided Japan tour : 2024, June 21-July 6, (Tokyo , Hakone- mt Fugi area, Kanazawa, Kyoto-side trips, depart from Osaka).. We are very excited, even though it is the rainy season. This is the only time we could go. Being seniors, we felt that we had to take this opportunity… 👍😀🌻🍷
So excited for our trip in 3 weeks. Who knows? We may even come across the Hollywood mega star known as Kengo san 😂😂
Thank you for your work, Kengo-San! As I am travelling to Tokyo mid September, I am really enjoying your videos, which are well made and very informative. Now I feel that I am way better prepared for Japan then before. Sincere greetings from Germany! 🙂
日本で最近お値段がするけど､ 旅行したいと思います 😊
Hello Kenchan, I'm currently planning a 4 week trip to Japan in autumn next year and you're video's are really helpful and informative. I already included a lot of places in my itinerary that I saw in previous videos and all your tips help me a lot. Arigatou gozaimasu, I can't wait to experience Japan next year 😍😍
Thank you very much Kengo for this amazing content. This is really a great video I think it will be very helpful to all people who are thinking to travel to Japan.
This video was amazing! Thank you so much!
Very good content as usual 🙂 Keep it up がんばってください !
Have you considered addressing Earthquakes and/or Typhoons in your "safety" chapter ?
When I was young, my parents were not quite confident about me going to Japan, they had a misconception about the earthquakes and it took me a lot of arguing to convince them that Japan was well prepared to deal with earthquakes (around 1500 per year 😀 )
When I was in Tokyo I experienced my first earthquake in mid day, I was scared at first but people around me were smiling and saying "Jishin" I understood it was a light one , I was immediately reassured by the behavior of Japanese people around me.
There were 3 earthquakes during my trip that year and except the first time where I had a second of panic I felt quite safe.
