With mountains, a lake, hot springs, and 400 hotels and inn, Hakone is the next destination for tourists from abroad after they have visited Tokyo. The most popular part of Hakone is around Lake Ashi, where the view of Mt Fuji in good weather is just like a picture postcard. People can enjoy hot springs because the area has been volcanically active for the past 400,000 years.

Reviews

This truly was our first day on our trip to Japan

My experience visiting Hakone and Mt. Fuji with Nao was fantastic. From the moment we booked the tour until the end, Nao was incredibly prompt in his communications, providing helpful information well in advance and frequently checking in on us. The tour was extensive, and he guided us patiently throughout the day. Unlike other guides, his fee included all transportation, lunch, and entrance tickets, which we found very reasonable. Nao is a friendly person, and we genuinely enjoyed his company. Having a private guide was a key reason for booking this tour. Haruo was very responsive both before and during our trip, confirming the sites we wanted to see prior to our arrival. On the morning of the tour, we mistakenly confused our start time and Nao-san kindly left his home early to accommodate us. He picked us up at the train station near our accommodation, which we greatly appreciated. Thank you, Nao-san!
