We go to Nasu by motorway and stop at Sesshoseki (Killing stone) and then to Nasu Heisei-no-mori Forest. We walk there around a couple of hours and have lunch.
There is no restaurant in that area so that you should buy your lunch at one of the covenience stores on the way to Nasu. After lunch if the weather permits we go to the ninth station of Chausudake mountain by ropeway. We enjoy spectacular scenery from there. Then dropping off at the visitor center to learn about Nasu. We pass through Nasu Imperial villa and we will drop by some souvenir shops if you like.

“Excellent guide to Nikko and major travel assistance ”
There's nothing Jack doesn't know about the history of Nikko whether you're interested in the UNESCO site of Futarasan-jinja Shrine (a must) or nature trails or wildlife. Jack's tour has it all. Our day out was truly memorable. Jack also really helped with our travel arrangements and assisting with a lengthy drive to the onsen we had booked in the mountains and planning how we got back! We thought recommend Jack as your guide.

“A truly wonderful day with Jack M”
A punctual, friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable, Jack created a special atmosphere for us on the day trip to Nikkō. His English is 'alive' and his demeanour is very conducive to a relaxed enjoyment. We are very happy to have chosen to spend a day with him in the Nikkō National Park. Jack is a very proud local guide yet sensitive to our personal requirements. My children shared their thoughts with me privately and said walking around with him and listening to him in a car on the way from the train station was like spending time with a grandpa. We are grateful to Jack for his efforts to construct a memorable itinerary for us. Anna and Alex, London

“A unique experience ”
After spending 5 days in busy Tokyo, my family and I were ready to take a day trip out for some nature and cultural experiences. We are so grateful to have found Jack, who picked us up from the train station and drove us to all the sites, as we relaxed and took it all in. Nikko is truly a special place and this was a highlight of our trip. Jack is very knowledge of the area and we had some great chats as toured around. I highly recommend Jack and his tours, and my family and I wish him all the best!
