Great adventurous experience for sure.

A wonderful day even though the weather was appalling

Published on Jun, 2024

Our tour leader Kumiko absolutely planned our tour around the things we love. It was jam packed with wonderful sight seeing and activities in beautiful places . She was kind and thoughtful of our needs. The day was filled with heavy rain and she adjusted things to work around this. Such a variety of sights like the modern art gallery, Shinto & Buddhist Shrines a ride across the lake in a pirate boat, a ride over the mountains in a gondola. Even a sushi lunch where the chef showed off his skills preparing individual meals with skill. The final visit was to the hot sulphur pools where I could soak my feet- so relaxing! It could have been a disastrous day, but Kumiko made it fun. Thankyou.

Amazing Tour with Yusuke!!

Published on May, 2024

This Tour was so much fun, my sister and I came to Japan for the first time. Excited for the landmark of Mount Fuji and looking to learn about the history. Yusuke was our tour guide and he fantastic, had no troubles finding him at the train station. He was extremely knowledgeable about the culture and throwing in fun facts, considerate of our preferences. Would highly recommend this tour

A great Hakone day out

Published on Mar, 2024

We had a lovely day. Our guide, Izumi Aizawa, looked after us very well. We were lucky with the sunny weather and enjoyed beautiful views of Mount Fuji. We spent some time at the Hakone Outdoor Museum which has a fine collection of Henry Moore's work set among the cherry blossom in the most suitable setting along with works by many other sculptors including Japanese artists. The rest of the day was well organised too. We visited the fine, atmospheric shrine on the edge of the lake. We were fortunate to have such a well informed and experienced guide for the day.

Exceptional very enjoyable trip

Published on Nov, 2023

We had Hakone tour with tour guide Noriko Masuda ( Ghibli Museum). It was amazing, fascinating tour of ancient temples with their beautiful surroundings, amazing autumn colours of trees; boat ride in Lake Ashi and ropeway ride to see beauty of Japan, it’s mountains and colourful forests, and, very enjoyable spring baths. The guide was very knowledgeable, friendly, kind and always ready to satisfy our curiosity about culture and history of Japan.
