Hakone Experience

Julie_L, Mar 2023

Our guide Kazuo-San was very knowledgeable and experienced. He guided us from our hotel in Tokyo through to our Ryokan in Hakone. We enjoyed a full day and even got glimpses of Mt Fuji. The lunch was traditional and fantastic. We felt comfortable to travel out on our own the next day alone. Highly recommend

Hakone made easy
