Meeting Point
Tachikawa station/Guest's hotel

Mount Daibosatsu
Starting from kamihikawa toge we will hike Mount Daibosatsu, one of Japan's 100 famous mountains. Perfect for beginners, the trail offers manageable terrain and takes about 4-6 hours to complete. Enjoy panoramic views and learn about local nature and history from experienced guides. No prior hiking experience needed!
Lunch
After completing the hike, we'll enjoy a delicious home-cooked lunch at the lodge, located at the trail's starting point, before departing by bus at 13:00.
Yamato Tenmoku Onsen
No mountain excursion is truly fulfilled without indulging in the bliss of an onsen experience. After finishing our hike we'll relax our sore muscles in the soothing warmth of natural mineral-rich waters, a cherished tradition deeply rooted in Japanese culture. Beyond relaxation, onsen baths offer numerous health benefits, from relieving muscle tension and improving circulation to promoting overall well-being. Picture yourself unwinding amidst serene surroundings, enveloped in steam and surrounded by breathtaking mountain vistas—a tranquil retreat for both body and soul.
Kai Yamato Station
We'll take the bus back to Kai Yamato station then head back to Tokyo.

About Tour Guide Leandra I.
Hello! I'm Leandra, and I'm stoked to be your guide as we dive into Japan. With seven years under my belt living here, I've become your trusted source for all things related to exploring this amazing country. Whether it's navigating the bustling city streets or trekking through scenic nature trails, I've got you covered.
I have extensive experience guiding excursions through mountains, inner city hidden gems, underground music scenes, and scenic day trips in the vicinity of Tokyo. When I'm not guiding, you can catch me indulging in my hobbies of digging into Japanese history, hitting up local shrines, lacing up my running shoes for a jog, scouting out new restaurants, or hitting the trails for a hike.
Originally from sunny SoCal, my roots stretch back to both Japanese and Mexican heritage, with a sprinkle of samurai lineage thrown in for good measure.
So, if you're ready to dive into the real Japan, away from the tourist traps, join me for an adventure you won't soon forget. Let's do this!
Reviews
“Great first day in Japan”
Thanks Leandra for making our first day in Tokyo (and also, Japan) a fun and informative one. We visited several places that I doubt we would have sought out otherwise, plus it helped us get our bearings re travelling around the city. Plenty of fun facts learnt also! We would definitely recommend Leandra! :) Andrew & Debbie - Auckland/NZ
“Tour of Tokyo!”
We had the best day with Leandra! On our second day in Tokyo, she took us all around the city. She showed us so many sites, taught us how to use the underground & provided so much amazing history + facts about the city. This was the best tour we’ve taken & we are so happy to have booked with Leandra. She is sweet, funny, knowledgeable & so great to talk to. Everyone book with her!
“Excellent guide!”
We had a great time with Lea in Tokyo. She showed us a bunch of places. Highlights were the local coffee shop and the bbq lunch spot. Definitely book her if you can!
