Embark on a scenic day trip from Tokyo to Hakone, a picturesque region renowned for its stunning landscapes and rich cultural heritage. Your journey begins at Shinjuku Station, where you'll meet your English-speaking guide and board an express train to Hakone. Immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of Hakone Gora Park, stroll along the historic Old Tokaido Road, and ascend the Owakudani Ropeway for panoramic views of the volcanic valley and Mt. Fuji. Cruise across the serene waters of Lake Ashi on a traditional pirate ship. For a more personalized experience, choose from a variety of optional activities: indulge in a traditional tea ceremony, admire world-class art at the Hakone Open Air Museum, or relax in a soothing onsen. Your day trip concludes in Tokyo, arriving at Shinjuku Station just before dinner.
Peak Seasons: There are many peak seasons in Hakone, but it is especially busy during Autumn as Hakone is one of the most beautiful locations of Japan to view autumn foliage. During peak season, there will be heavy traffic on the roads and may take two to three times the duration to travel between locations by bus at Hakone. Other peak holidays include Golden Week (May 6th to 27th), the Obon Holidays (August 11th to 20th), and the New Year Holidays (December 28th – January 6th).
PLEASE FILL OUT THE TOUR FORM: After your booking, you will receive a link to the Hakone Form (within 48 hours) that asks for pertinent information required for this booking. Please ensure that this Hakone Form is completed accurately before three week of your tour date. We will work on an itinerary based on your detail. We will contact you by email (or the platform you made the booking at), but for urgent cases we may send a SMS text message to you from our global phone number.
How far in advance should I book?
Preparing a customized tour requires some time, especially if reservations for restaurants or other venues are required. We recommend making a reservation as early as possible. Ideally, it should be 3 months before your travel date, or 1 month before the travel date at the very least. For Custom Tour bookings that are requested with less than 7 days before the travel date, we may not be able to arrange your custom tour in time so your booking request may be cancelled and you will receive a full refund.

Why am I charged a service fee if I make a cancellation after you started planning the trip?
Organizing and planning a trip requires a lot of time and if we have made reservations on your behalf, it may be very challenging to cancel some booking requests. Once we receive your booking and your answers from the Custom Tour form, we will begin putting together your Itinerary Sheet and will start arranging your tour guide, buying tickets, making reservations at venues for your tour, etc.
If you cancel the tour any time after we have sent you the custom Itinerary Sheet, the service fee of 15% of your total tour cost will be nonrefundable.
If your cancellation falls within the fees applied to the Standard Cancellation Policy, the service fee of 15% will no longer take effect. You will only be responsible for the cancellation fee specified in the Standard Cancellation Policy. Please carefully review the terms and conditions specified on the checkout page.
Although this is a private tour, the tour guide will only wait for you for up to 30 minutes of start time before the tour is cancelled

A great Hakone day out

Tim_S, Mar 2024

We had a lovely day. Our guide, Izumi Aizawa, looked after us very well. We were lucky with the sunny weather and enjoyed beautiful views of Mount Fuji. We spent some time at the Hakone Outdoor Museum which has a fine collection of Henry Moore's work set among the cherry blossom in the most suitable setting along with works by many other sculptors including Japanese artists. The rest of the day was well organised too. We visited the fine, atmospheric shrine on the edge of the lake. We were fortunate to have such a well informed and experienced guide for the day.
