Full Itinerary

Have a day of stunning hotspots with the first stop – Hakone Shrine at the bottom of Mount Hakone in the dense forest. You will see giant gates in the lake and the main street of Moto-Hakone. The shrine performs a spectacular view and always beautiful during the year. There are a series of steps with sparkling and colorful lanterns surrounding the forest to the main site.

After 10 minutes on the Hakone Ropeway, we reach Owaku Valley that is a volcanic valley famous for sulfur vents and hot springs. You will enjoy the picturesque scenery together with exciting activities and try black egg boiled in hot springs – a specialty with the ability to prolong more 7 years.

A journey will become more adventurous when we head to Lake Ashinoko by a hiking trail. You will need hiking shoes and rain gear to overcome rocky, slipper or windy path in two hours. Then a sweet result is that you can indulge in the breathtaking sight of turquoise water with marvelous Mount Fuji under romantic clouds while taking a cruise on Viking boat.

Next, we will visit the gate, checkpoint and guard house served for the feudal Edo Period among Tokyo and Kyoto – Hakone Sekisho. We can discover the Exhibition Hall to learn about information using mannequins, furnishing, and arms with the story of the rule “no incoming guns, no outgoing woman”. Take a stroll along the tree-lined trail among the hundred-year-old pines for a tranquil atmosphere. The tour ends when driving you back to your port for your next Japan shore excursions.
