Is a Japanese Budget NIGHT BUS Worth It? TOKYO - OSAKA

Hopefully this is the last time I take the budget night bus... ☠ Would you take this bus to save some money??
ALSO!! Videos I filmed in OSAKA coming next week! 🇯🇵

how about luggage size

I can't really sleep sitting up in a vehicle. It's the worst. Last year, I had two trips with overnight flights and I arrived completely confused and exhausted for both trips. I would only do an overnight on any sort of transit if I had no other viable options.

Edited to add: I started watching your videos recently after seeing you with Emma in some TC videos, and I'm really enjoying them. I'm hoping to visit Japan sometime in the next couple of years and I'm getting lots of ideas for things to do.

I think you guys did all right. I think you'll look back at this experience... and love it.

that looks like robert hawaii bus we have here man try rough it up in a school bus that was be a challenge

Your friend's so cute.

I’m planning on taking a night bus from Osaka to Kyoto on my trip and this is super helpful!! I REALLY wanna go to that rest area it looks SO cool :3 also yah I’m on a budget and the bus both saves on a night accommodations and also saves time as you are progressing vs having to get up early to catch a train or flight. Also I can sleep pretty easy on flights and buses

save you a higher cost but convenient shorter time Shinkansen and also cost of a hotel . This is clearly a budget travel if you can sleep on the bus .

Very interesting Bus Trip!! 👌👌👌😍 Thank you very much for sharing!! Greetings from Barcelona 👍❤☺🇪🇸

美人だよね

Take a Fairy or Night Train instead

I took a express bus from Tokyo to Karuizawa, which was fine because it wasn't a really long journey, but I wouldn't do it to go to Osaka. The distance is too much to take a night bus.

’5.5 which saves my genkiness’ 😆😆😆😆

Hi, does this bus have trunk for luggage?

I’m probably going to take this same kind of bus in September! I think it’ll be ok since I can sleep in ANY situation, but finding my bus after a stop will be uh….difficult

😊😊😊😊

could you be more beautiful?

I*

U cannot sleep sitting up

The trend of
“Babe catches me sleeping”

But it’s her taking the photo
Lmao 😂😂😂

I'll continue sticking to the shinkansen 😅😅😅😅😅😅😂

I've been there! It is not the best, but if it is the only affordable way to travel around Japan, I will not hesitate to do it again!

good thing i can knock out easy.. thank God

Reminds me of a flight I once took from London to Hong Kong. I literally would have rather took any other transport method there after getting off the plane. Car, boat, train, walk, pogo stick. Anything! 😂 on the positive side…the plane had a toilet.

in my trip to Japan, me and my friends were going to Osaka. The problem was, they all bought their Shinkansen tickets before hand and I didn't lol. luckily there was still tickets available because if not, I was gonna take this overnight bus ride to Osaka. And after seeing this video, I know I would have been uncomfortable due to my height (195cm). But still though, it looks like it would have been fun to take this bus ride.

トイレのないBUSはきついよ！

Hellooo Sarah… on behalf of all your fans… we want more videos!!!🤣😂
They’re super fun to watch!!!

Thank you so much for sharing and taking us along with you and your Bestie Sarah! I still take the night bus into consideration. It reminded me of a 1 € (yep you've read right) bus trip I took a few years ago from Munich to Berlin. We did had the luxury of a toilet in the bus though. 🚽✨

お疲れ様です　夜行バスは疲れますね。

actually we were planning to take a night bus to tokyo. I look comfy and livable to me lol. we might still try this. thanks for the vid!

私は夜行バスに乗ったことはなく、日帰りバスに乗りましたが、それでも疲れますよね。

バスの中で快適に過ごす方法を見つけた方がいいかも。
バスをよく利用する友人は、空気でふくらむネック枕、スリッパ、アイマスク、耳栓、ひざ掛けが良いと言ってました。（これは100円均一の、ダイソーで売ってます）

めぐリズムのホットアイマスク、のどぬーるマスクとかいいかもしれないですね。
サービスエリアによるのは楽しいですけどね😊次回利用するときがあれば参考に。

良い旅を🎉

Not so sure about the bus but the overnight / sleeper trains like the Sunrise sound more appealing! I guess for the price and if you can get to sleep easily enough it's really not bad though!

安いけど疲れる！良い経験をしたと思います。サービスエリアはパラダイスですよね。蕎麦も啜ってナイスです。良き旅を。

At least you guys are having fun. That’s all that matters.😊

I took a night bus from Hiroshima to Kobe a few years back. It was in the winter so I was bundled up, and I found the bus to be uncomfortably hot inside. I baked all night and couldn't sleep much because of it. Otherwise I think it would have been comfortable.

As a suggestion could there be some content on museums or other entertainment options?

Melbourne to Canberra night bus, also RIP to the next day. I thought my night bus days were behind me but $30 to Osaka is intriguing..

I've taken night buses before, but only for day trips. I think they're a decent choice in that situation since the excitement during the day helps counteract the sleep I didn't get on the bus last night, and I can usually sleep okay on the way back. If I were in Japan I'd probably try to take an overnight ferry if I wanted to go a long distance for cheapish.

You should have had a pee bottle 😂 The coaches I've seen where I live in Western Canada the bathroom on the bus isn't that great you'd have to be pretty desperate to use one.

Great coverage of the experience and what to expect. Thank you!

I’ve done it a bunch of times, and I liked it. But it seems you were on the super no-frills kind of bus. Now that you’ve done that, you should totally splurge and do a fancy bus ride somewhere! Like the buses with a reclining seat, and your own private little room with a door, and tv - and these buses often have bathrooms too! lol

Those busses looks very fancy in my opinion here in Norway at least! :P

Energy for brecky? X-D funny video!

Love that you're following through with the videos this month! ahem You're beating Emma... The bus ride looked a bit rough. I might have to shoot an overnight bus from San Francisco to Los Angeles video to see what they're like these days. You've inspired me! And if it's awful I get to blame you! Thanks Sarah!

Love the video.

Reminded me of the many bus trips I've taken across the states. Its always nicer to have a travel buddy.

I just booked a flight from Sendai to Fukuoka for 40$. Flights in Japan can be really cheap.

I think while I might use one if it was my only option for whatever reason, I think I'd rather spend more money on other options as I know once I arrive, I'd be dead like you and wouldn't have the energy to enjoy the day ahead. Good sleep = Big enjoyment!

More Seerasan content!!! 🥳 I hope you start a Patreon soon! 🚎🗼🥛

Omg 2 videos in a week??! What is this luxury???

Woop another video, I never realised there were Service Stations in Japan. Loving the travel vlogs Sarah.
