Outstanding Guide Experience in Hakone!

We had an amazing time exploring the Hakone area with Akira. He tailored the one day experience perfectly to our interests. Including cruising across Lake Ashi, strolling the through the Hakone Open-Air Museum, traveling the Hakone Rope Way, and visiting the Hakone Shrine. Every moment felt thoughtfully planned. He helped navigate local transportation effectively on a busy holiday and recommended a delicious spot to eat lunch. We had so much fun with Akira and would highly recommend him as a guide.

Disappointing and expensive

This is a very expensive tour for what we experienced. Whilst Max our tour guide was nice, and he was happy to take photos for us, it started and ended up very disappointing. We rushed through the Picasso museum which we wanted to spend more time on, then finished the tour a head of schedule because we had covered everything earlier then anticipated. We ended up trying to fill in the time (by sitting around) waiting for the sunset when we could have spent more time at the museum earlier in the day. Just bad planning! Max bought some Japanese sweets for us to try, which ordinarily would be a nice gesture, except he bought one for himself and one for us to share between the two of us - what?! We just paid for your lunch, which cost 3 times the amount of the small sweet and you couldn't buy us one each?! - We were dismayed. Further, Otomo Tours and the tour guides needs to be more clear on whether the tour guides lunch needs to be covered, as there was some confusion. Apparently we didn't have to (but on another tour with the same company we did?!), but it wasn't made clear to us until it was too late. In hindsight we could have visited the places ourselves and saved us a whole lot of money. Disappointing.
Our favorite day in Japan!

Our tour of Hakone was our favorite day in Japan! Max was the ultimate tour guide! We saw more sights than we thought possible in one day. He navigated the public transportation and helped us purchase tickets. He answered all of our questions, was extremely knowledgeable and was pleasant to talk to. We were able to be flexible with the timing of each stop, spending more time in some than others, based on our preferences.
