Shiki-Shima Train
Experience the beauty of the Japanese countryside and the outstanding service that the island nation is known for aboard the Shiki-Shima Train. This ten-car sightseeing train was designed by Ken Okuyama, the former Pininfarina Design Director responsible for the Ferrari Enzo, and offers a host of delights for its passengers. Those include a dining room serving cuisine from Eastern Japan, an airy lounge, two window-lined observation cars, and suites that combine traditional Japanese design with modern touches. Itineraries ranging from a one-night-two-day tour to a three-night, four-day excursion, but unfortunately, it's already booked for the rest of the year, and to get a ticket, you'll need to fill out a form and enter a lottery that determines who gets the privilege of climbing aboard.
