Hakone Private Tours

“ A Truly Unforgettable Day in Hakone”

From the moment we met Hideaki, we knew we were in for a special day. We appreciated his knowledge of the area and his considerations of our interests, fitting in a wonderful visit to the Hydrangea gardens and a delicious lunch! He was really flexible with changes to our booking and made the process of catching trains and buying tickets much easier. We loved the breathtaking ropeway ride over the volcanic Owakudani Valley, and the boat trip on the lake. We loved the connection to Evangelion!!! Lunch was a highlight — a local restaurant tucked away from the tourist paths, with the most delicious curry. Throughout the day, we never felt rushed. Hideaki was patient and looked after us— adjusting the pace to suit our needs, making sure we were comfortable and engaged. It was a very hot day and my husband became unwell, causing us to cancel our plans the next day but we hope to return to Japan and we would use Hideaki again.

“A great day”

We chose the option to drive from Tokyo in Kaori's very comfortable car. That made getting around Kahone very easy. The other guide (her husband) also is a photographer and loves to take family photos! They are both very pleasant and easy to talk to. We also went to the open air museum, which was amazing. Highly recommend.

Thank you for taking time to give us an excellent review while you are still traveling, Peter-san. Glad to hear your family loved Open Air museum. That is also my favorite museum in Hakone. It was fun to enjoy foot bath together! Your expertness in travel impressed us a lot. We really loved time with you. Thank you again for choosing our tour among a number of tours you searched for Hakone. Big hugs, Kaori

Jackie san, Thank you very much for your review. We were able to see beautiful roses and hydrangeas at Gora Park even though we couldn’t see Mt. Fuji. I hope you enjoyed the tour. Have a good trip in Japan. Hideaki Murayama
