The most luxurious Shiki-Shima train comes from the land of the rising sun – Japan. It was designed by Ferrari designer Ken Okuyama, the first non-Italian to ever design for the brand. This also makes it a real piece of art on rails. And officially the most luxurious form of transportation in the world. A few days ago, it did its christening ride and the first passengers were impressed.
You want a crazy experience. You love trains and they are in love with the romance of traveling in this way. Then you will only have the amount 10,000 euros stood in the way of making your dreams come true. That's how much a ticket for one of the most unusual and exclusive luxury vehicles in the world.
The Shiki-Shima train is designed as a travel sleeper that has 17 rooms and thus can host up to 34 passengers. You are pampered by an exceptional ambience designed by the Ferrari designer himself Ken Okuyama, the first non-Italian ever to design for the brand. But he kept it in the design Japanese traditionalism, which gives the interior of this train an exceptional note. It is not fast, as it only reaches speeds of up to 110 km/h, which is extremely slow for Japanese conditions. But with this train, speed comes last. This is a train to enjoy life and a train where the journey is important rather than the destination. If you want to travel next year, you should book your trip with Shiki-Shim today, as all capacity is sold out until the middle of next year.
