There's a Cable-car ride, Chair Lift, Lunch, Monkey Park, Suspension bridge, and many more things along the way. Your guide will be fluent in English & Japanese, and will feel like a local friend. He won't be barking at you giving you orders and time restrictions. Instead, he will be relaxed and friendly, giving tips and recommendations to enjoy your trip to Japan.
After exploring the mountain, we'll refresh, relax, and rejuvenate in a Natural Hot Spring facility. For those with tattoos, no need to worry, as we will go to a Hot Spring facility that allows tattoos! There are indoor and outdoor spring baths, a cold bath, and a Sauna too.

5.00Five stars doesn’t do this tour justice. Not only is Jordan a great tour guide through authentic Japanese history, nature and cuisine…he creates an atmosphere of inclusion and warmth that made everyone on the tour feel like we’ve known him for years! I can’t recommend this tour enough…must do!
Best tour I’ve ever done

5.00Honestly the best tour I’ve ever done. Jordan was an excellent guide. He was exceptionally knowledgeable and friendly, and took us to both touristy “must see” spots and hidden gems. I would recommend to anyone traveling to Tokyo.
Amazing tour and tour guide

5.00Ready for a long review? :) Before booking the experience, we communicated with Jordan via WhatsApp because we needed some flexibility with timing. Jordan went above and beyond to accommodate our needs so we could book the experience. He met my husband and myself at the exact place he indicated and we felt the calm, positive energy right away. He's originally from Jamaica and his English is impeccable so that was a plus as my husband loves to ask lots of questions! We started at 9 am heading towards Mt. Takao while he was telling us a bit about the culture in Japan, showing us some interesting sites on the way and making sure we agreed with all the options planned. The short visit to the Museum was interesting and worth it. This is a 1/2 day experience that requires lots of walking and going up stairs; we love hiking and going on long walks so this was perfect for us, but know that there will be walking required and Jordan can customize a bit the difficulty of the journey. The visit to the Temples is really nice while Jordan explains the meanings, history and customary practices, we thoroughly enjoyed it! We had lunch at a typical soba noodle spot and rode from there to the Hot Spring Site. This experience is incredible! So relaxing and well earned after the hike! It really represents much of the Japanese culture! Jordan was so nice in giving us lots of recommendations for restaurants, sightseeing in Tokyo, off the beaten path spots and even Japanese words to get by! We highly recommend booking with him! Thanks Jordan for your kindness!
Well worth getting away from downtown for

5.00Jordan was super friendly and went above and beyond to make this a great tour. The bathhouse he took me to was fantastic and just the relaxation I needed. The soba was delicious as well.
Great day trip to see a historic location and take in some Japanese culture.

5.00Tour guide had good knowledge of the history of Mt Takao and a passion for the area. English speaking. It’s a good hike with plenty of stairs. The views are wonderful on a clear day. The Temple is spectacular and the monkey park is a nice side stop on your way to the top. The ramen was excellent.
