JR East View Travel Offers Overnight Group Trains for Japan’s Summer Fireworks Festivals
H.I.S. Co., Ltd. (HIS), a major Japanese travel agency, will launch a tour that allows guests to watch baseball games from guest rooms at the Toronto Marriott City Centre Hotel, located inside Rogers Centre in Toronto, Canada.
This is the only hotel in North America located inside a ballpark, and field-view guest rooms offer a sweeping view of the stadium. Participants will stay in the newly established “Rawlings Room,” themed on the baseball equipment brand “Rawlings,” and can watch games on two consecutive days both from their guest room and from first-floor seats behind home plate. They can also join the “Ultimate Pregame Tour” (includes a commemorative gift; conducted in English), which offers a backstage look at areas such as the back yard, as well as batting practice and warm-ups before the game. The tour also includes a day trip to Niagara Falls in Canada.
The departure date is September 13, using Air Canada’s nonstop flights between Tokyo/Haneda and Toronto. The tour price is 989,000 yen per person for double occupancy, including fuel surcharges. Reservations will be accepted starting at 11:00 a.m. on June 30. The tour is limited to one pair of two participants.
