Hakone Shrine and Lake Ashi Torii(about80mins)
Our journey kicks off at the tranquil Hakone Shrine, nestled along the calm shores of Lake Ashi. Dating back to 757 AD, this shrine offers a deep connection to ancient mountain worship. You’ll be captivated by the iconic red torii gate, standing gracefully in the lake, merging spiritual charm with the surrounding natural beauty. It’s a photo moment you won’t want to pass up!
Hakone Pirate Ship Cruise(about 25mins, ticket excluded)
Next up: a playful twist on sightseeing! Climb aboard the quirky Hakone Pirate Ship and set sail across the stunning Lake Ashi. As you glide through the waters, take in panoramic views of the shimmering lake, the torii gate, and on a clear day, the mighty Mount Fuji itself. This isn’t just a boat ride—it’s a fun and scenic way to soak in Hakone’s charm.
Hakone Ropeway(about 30mins, ticket including)
Now, get ready for some high-flying action as we board the Hakone Ropeway! This thrilling ride will take you soaring over the volcanic valley of Owakudani. As you rise above the clouds, feast your eyes on the billowing steam vents and, of course, the jaw-dropping sight of Mount Fuji. It’s a bird’s-eye view you’ll never forget!
Owakudani (about 50min)
Once we touch down in Owakudani, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped into another world, with steam hissing from active volcanic vents all around. Don’t miss the chance to try the legendary “black eggs,” cooked in the area’s sulfuric springs—rumor has it that eating one adds seven years to your life! This dramatic, surreal landscape will leave you amazed by the sheer power of nature.
Yamanakako Swan Lake(about 20min)
Next, we head to the serene Yamanakako, or Swan Lake, one of the stunning Fuji Five Lakes. It’s the perfect place to unwind and snap some incredible photos of graceful swans gliding across the water with Mount Fuji in the distance. This peaceful, scenic spot is sure to fill you with tranquility.
Oshino Hakkai(about 40min)
Finally, we’ll wander into Oshino Hakkai, a charming village famous for its eight crystal-clear ponds fed by Mount Fuji’s snowmelt. The ponds reflect the towering mountain like a dream, making it a photographer’s paradise. Stroll through this picturesque village and soak in the traditional charm and scenic beauty that make this place so magical.

The sites we visited were great but the guide was useless. He spent 90% of the time speaking Japanese. When he briefly would add a sentence in heavily accented English, he spoke so fast that by the time you realized it was English, he was back to speaking rapidly in Japanese. He gave us no insights into Japanese histor and culture.
The trip was very nice. We were lucky because we had a great view on the full mountain at the end of the day. Everything was well organized and well scheduled. We fully recommend this trip with our guide Jack.
We had an absolutely fantastic experience on our tour. Our tour with Jack was absolutely fantastic and we were lucky enough to see the whole of Mt Fuji today! It was a jam packed tour taken, so many brilliant places and it was fast paced but you get to see a lot! Jack really looked after us and was so helpful, and wow listening to him smoothly switch between English, Chinese and Japanese was a very impressive skill!
It has been a great trip with new great experiences. There was no wasted time as the program was carefully planned. Jack was a great guide and his English was easy to understand.
Interesting tour that makes up the main stops to see Mt. Fuji from various perspectives and get a little taste of the area around there. The guide, Jack, was very friendly and was well in control of the situation. Given the presence of quite a few Chinese, however, he tended to speak mostly Chinese and very little English (a thought shared by all non-Chinese fellow travelers). So if you want a vehicle to take you to the Mt. Fuji sites Ok but don't expect explanations. Important note: cheap but terrible food stop. You eat in a warehouse set up as a canteen with even bathrooms outside. Bring your own sandwiches.
è stato tutto bellissimo e la guida perfetta. Wanting(Rachel) is a great tour guide, I enjoyed the trip with her something like that☺️
Kousei was a great guide, nice and helpful. The trip in general was unfortunately quite rushed (tight time management) and the places were overcrowded. The restaurant and the food were great ☝🏼
The tour to Mount Fuji was fantastic, and Jack was an excellent guide.
