This was our first bullet train in Japan and we took it from Osaka to Tokyo. But because we bought our tickets day of, we only really could buy first class and second class tickets. So we decided to make a Japan Bullet train video all about first class or second class to see which one is better.
The train we took was Osaka to Tokyo on the Shinkansen Nozomi). The ticket prices were $150 for first class and $112 for second class. There were no seats available at the window for second class, and Nick’s car was really empty for first class ticket.
Take a look at this video and let us know what you think…would you spend the extra money on first class, or do you think second class is better.

Definitely a bucket list item! I have seen so much about this train and couldn't wait to see what the hype was about! Well, after seeing the real difference between first class and second class, I can attest, that if you can spare the money, first class is worth it!
Have you ridden the bullet train before? Let us know your thoughts and if you have ever ridden first class or second class and what your experience was!
Sam you’re both making me miss Japan so much 😭
