点评:We chose to travel from Hokkaido to Kansai by a ferry. This took around 22 hours from Otaru to Maizuru. It’s nice to take a break after traveling around Hokkaido for a week. The cruise provided more than enough that you could feel relaxed while being able to transport to another region of Japan.
What to expect:
1. They provide various types of rooms, from suites to bunk beds. If you reserve a room from the website, please check if you are required to issue a ticket for boarding. Be there at least 1 hour prior to the departure time.
2. What’s free: sento (bathroom), sauna, lavatories, drinking water, boiling water, children room, small theater, smoking room, outdoor deck, lobby, locker (requires 100 yen coin to lock/unlock)
3. With charges: vending machines, game room, massage chairs, coin laundry, combi (convenience store), cafe, restaurant, video room
What to bring:
1. Cash - In case there’s no signal on the cruise and that credit card might not work.
2. Coins - Especially 100 yen coins if you want to buy anything from vending machines or use lockers, laundry, etc. There’re also coin exchange machines available.
3. Towel - They provide hair dryers, shampoo, shower gel and even conditioner but please bring your own towel.
4. Download Japanese google translation - So you can use it offline when there’s no signal.
5. Snacks and drink at your own choices - There were limited options available on board.
6. If you get motion sickness easily, bring your medicine.
Do’s & Dont’s
1. Be Roman when you’re in Rome, likewise please try to fit in and respect Japanese culture. I found that Japanese people were humble and kind. They’re willing to help. Try to learn some useful Japanese conversation. From my experience, they will feel more comfortable if you at least try to talk to them in their language rather than approaching them with pure English. We were the only foreigners on board and we’re doing fine here.
2. Clean after yourself like what you do at home. Japan is a clean country even in remote area, please help maintain it as is.
3. Respect other people’s privacy - This is not a tip but it is actually a must in every country.
Hope these tips are helpful for those who will travel with Shin Nihonkai. Enjoy!
翻译:我们选择从北海道乘渡轮前往关西。从小釜到舞鹤大约需要 22 小时。在北海道旅行一周后,休息一下很不错。游轮提供的服务足以让您在放松身心的同时还能前往日本的另一个地区。
预期:
1. 他们提供各种类型的房间,从套房到双层床。如果您从网站预订房间,请检查是否需要出具登船票。至少在出发时间前 1 小时到达。
2. 免费设施:公共浴室、桑拿、盥洗室、饮用水、开水、儿童房、小剧场、吸烟室、户外甲板、大厅、储物柜(需要 100 日元硬币才能上锁/解锁)
3. 收费设施:自动售货机、游戏室、按摩椅、投币式洗衣机、便利店、咖啡厅、餐厅、影音室
携带物品:
1. 现金 - 以防游轮上没有信号,信用卡可能无法使用。
2. 硬币 - 如果您想从自动售货机购买任何东西或使用储物柜、洗衣房等,请特别准备 100 日元硬币。船上也有硬币兑换机。
3. 毛巾 - 船上提供吹风机、洗发水、沐浴露甚至护发素,但请自带毛巾。
4. 下载日语谷歌翻译 - 这样您可以在没有信号时离线使用。
5. 自行选择零食和饮料 - 船上可供选择的选项有限。
6. 如果您容易晕车,请带上您的晕车药。
注意事项
1. 在罗马时要像罗马人一样,同样请尝试融入并尊重日本文化。我发现日本人很谦虚和善良。他们愿意提供帮助。尝试学习一些有用的日语对话。根据我的经验,如果您至少尝试用他们的语言与他们交谈,而不是用纯英语与他们交谈,他们会感到更自在。我们是船上唯一的外国人,我们在这里过得很好。
2. 像在家一样打扫卫生。日本是一个干净的国家,即使在偏远地区也是如此,请帮助保持原样。
3. 尊重他人的隐私 - 这不是小贴士,但实际上在每个国家都是必须的。
希望这些小贴士对那些将乘坐新日本海旅行的人有所帮助。祝您玩得开心!
