What To Expect
Hakone Jinja
At Hakone Shrine, visitors can enjoy the stunning view of the “Peace Torii” floating on Lake Ashi, pray for good fortune and success, and visit Kuzuryu Shrine, known for bringing love and good relationships. The cedar-lined approach creates a mystical atmosphere, making a simple walk feel purifying. After visiting, you can relax at a nearby café or take a cruise on Lake Ashi. Hakone Shrine offers a perfect blend of nature, history, and spiritual serenity in one place.
Lake Ashinoko
After the cruise, enjoy lunch at Moto-Hakone Port, a scenic spot along the lakeshore. This area offers a wide variety of restaurants — from traditional Japanese cuisine to Western-style dishes and cozy cafés — and your guide will recommend the best local favorites. A meal enjoyed with a view of Mt. Fuji is truly unforgettable. Local specialties such as fried smelt fish (wakazagi), Hakone soba noodles, and seasonal Japanese set meals are especially popular. Relax and savor a peaceful moment that will satisfy both your heart and your appetite.

5.00we booked this tour mainly to visit hakone, but the first stop at the mt. fuji peace park ended up being our favorite part of the day! we were so close to mt fuji from that destination, not to mention this was not a very touristy park so we were the only group there! anju was a wonderful guide and taught us a lot about the history of japan and the areas we were traveling through. 10/10 experience!!
Wonder day trip to Mt Fuji and Hakone

5.00This tour was a real highlight of our trip to Tokyo! Ayaka was our tour guide and she was simply wonderful - very upbeat and personable, and really dedicated to taking the best care of our group. Her knowledge of Japanese culture and customs was phenomenal, and I learned a lot! Ayaka also shared both entertaining facts and a ton of practical tips at every turn, making sure we would have the best experience during our tour and Japan stay itself. Having taken a few bus tours in various places I believe that the guide can make a difference between a nice tour and a really memorable one, and Ayaka truly made ours special! The tour destinations themselves were well-chosen, starting with Fuji Heiwa Park which was serene and very beautiful, and allowed for a nice view of My. Fuji. Taking the Hakone ropeway up to Owakudani Hot Springs to watch the steam rise from sulfur vents was quite impressive, and the pirate ship boat cruise on Lake Ashi a real treat! Lastly, Hakone Shrine with its floating Torii gate was a perfect finish rounding out our trip. We had a truly wonderful day, made great memories, and highly recommend this beautiful tour with Ayaka and Local Guide Stars!
Tour with tour guide Ayaka.

5.00A great tour. We were lucky and were able to see Fuji (even if only briefly). But even without the mountain, it is worthwhile. Our tour guide Ayaka took wonderful care of us. Very well organized, informative, and entertaining.
Very good
