Seven Stars Train Cruise, Kyushu

In contrast to the high-tech bullet trains so characteristic of Modern Japan, the Seven Stars Kyushu 'train cruise' is the height of slow travel, brimming with luxury, elegance and Japanese omotenashi (hospitality).

A fusion of Japanese and Western design, the seven carriages are fitted with wood panelling and brass lamps but powered with the smoothest motion control technology. Every detail has been carefully considered and the designer Mitooka worked closely with local artisans to produce a stunning interior.
