Commuting cannot get any more stylish than this! While we have seen, and heard of many luxury trains, almost none come close to Japan’s new wonder- the Shiki- Shima luxury sleeper that spells fancy on the tracks and beyond!
The luxe train that began its journey on May 1st from Tokyo to the northern island of Hokkaido is a spell-binding fleet of opulence that comes fully equipped with a bar, two-storey suites and exotic cypress tree bathtubs.Designed by Ken Kiyoyuyki (a former creative resource for Porsche and General Motors), the luxury train can carry only 34 passengers at once for a price that only those many can afford!
A voyage on board the Shiki-Shima express will cost you Euro 4.000 ($4400) for a normal suite to Euro 8.500 ($9300) for a 3D/2N stay in the premium suite.
For a price that hefty though, the train offers its passengers a ride of their lifetime with memories that can make all other journeys thereafter look depressingly mediocre!
The ultra-luxurious train includes ten carriages that boast of two full-blown observatories, a lounge and a dining room. Obviously enough, you can expect to savor some the best of delicacies while on board, served to you by a staff that is well-trained and delightfully courteous.
If you have $ 10,000 to spend and wish yourself a voyage onboard the Shiki-Shima, que up to book a spot now! Sadly, though, you will need wait longer than expected as tickets for this opulent train ride have been fully booked until March 2018.
