Itinerary

  • Nikko Tosho-gu

    At the UNESCO World Heritage Site Nikko Tosho-gu, among the many beautiful carvings you will find the famous Three Wise Monkeys, the Sleeping Cat and the Imagined Elephants

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • Irohazaka Route (Pass By)

    A scenic highway connects the city of Nikkō with the Oku-Nikkō area. It is divided into two one-way roads, Iroha-zaka No. 1 and No. 2, which traverse the 440-meter difference in elevation between the Umagaeshi area at the bottom and Lake Chūzenji at the top through a series of switchbacks. “Iroha” is the name of a poem that uses each of the 48 characters of the Japanese syllabary exactly once. The poem appears, one character at a time, on signs at each bend in the road. The first 20 characters appear on the ascending route (No. 2), while the descent (No. 1) starts from the 21st character and finishes the poem.

  • Lake Chuzenji

    Lake Chuzenji (中禅寺湖, Chūzenjiko) is a scenic lake in the mountains above the town of Nikko. It is located at the foot of Mount Nantai, Nikko s sacred volcano, whose eruption blocked the valley below, thereby creating Lake Chuzenji about 20,000 years ago

An Amazing trip to Kegon falls, Toshogu Shrine and Nikko.

Published on Apr, 2025

A great trip to Toshogu Shrine, Kegon water falls, Nikko and Lake Chuzenji. The guide was very helpful and knowledgeable. The bus was good and we enjoyed the comfortable timings at all stops. We did not opt for lunch as we are vegetarians and found other options. A great trip.

Solid experience. You get exactly as described.

Published on Mar, 2025

Very fulfilling experience. We got out on time so be super punctual. We did all the described activities. Time in the shrine was tight so don't stop too much at each building. We also went down to the falls and to the lake for some pictures. We got a small present at the end!. Bring cash as souvenir stores take only cash.

Loved the trip!

Published on Mar, 2025

Wonderful, well prepared trip to this amazing locations. The guide was also awesome and very friendly! Recommended 10/10!

Great mountain scenery and most decorated temple

Published on Feb, 2025

This tour really lets you see a lot of amazing things (the biggest most decorated temple, an amazing mountain setting with waterfall and a big mountain lake) with easy transportation and some great guides! Manuel, Pastor were wonderful guides and our driver, Olska, was magnificent around all those mountain curves as well as back in the big city! The historical and cultural information that was shared was enlightening and helped my understanding not just of Japanese history but also of current culture.

Nikko was beautiful

Published on Dec, 2024

We booked this experience the night before, we were worried that it would be too late. But actually we got the confirmation in the morning and everything went smoothly. The guide (nickname Vicky) was very prepared, kind and spoke perfect English. It was very easy to find them at every stop. The bus driver was driving safely even on mountain roads.
