The whole experience from meeting Will at Tokyo Station to the time we said our goodbyes nearly 10 hrs later, was an absolute delight. It was such good value for money and Will at JRT (Japan Relax Tour) took very good care of us. We chose to have the all inclusive Mt Fuji/Hakone experience which included the bus roundtrip (very comfortable big tour bus), pirate ship cruise ticket across Lake Ashi, and cable car ride up to the top of Owakudani. Well worth being able to have everything taken care of before you depart otherwise you have to figure out how to meet the tour group at the next point. Not easy when transportation options are not great in the mountains. We had no worries because Will was there making sure everything ran smoothly and while it was a very rainy and cloudy day and Mt Fuji was in hiding, I am not disappointed at all. Would highly recommend Will and the JRT team to take you on the tour!!

Absolutely loved this tour! 🇯🇵✨ This was my first ever overseas trip, so I was a little nervous about travelling somewhere completely new. Booking this guided tour was one of the best decisions I made, it turned out to be such a wonderful experience. Our guide, Erik, was fantastic! He was incredibly knowledgeable and informative, sharing so much interesting information about the places we visited and the history of the area. He was also approachable which made the whole day relaxed and enjoyable. Seeing Mount Fuji, exploring Hakone, experiencing the pirate ship on Lake Ashi, Owakudani and Oshino Hakkai made for such a memorable day. The scenery was absolutely beautiful, and it was amazing to experience so much in one day. A huge thank you to Erik for making my first overseas tour such a positive and memorable experience. I would definitely recommend this tour, especially if it’s your first time visiting Japan! 🇯🇵❤️

Erik was a great guide! He gave us so much information throughout the tour and gave great recommendations for food, shopping, etc. Even though Mt. Fuji stayed hidden behind the clouds, it was a great day . 10/10 would recommend. Erik is great, Erik is cool, and, Erik is sexy.

This is my 2nd time to book a Mt. Fuji Tour through Klook and is also the best by far. We were able to see Mt. Fuji from morning until late afternoon on our day of visit, which was believed to be a sign of impressive luck. Our guide, Will Yu, is very articulate in walking us through the history and interesting facts about the places included in the package. This really helped us learn more things about Japan’s historical spots and exceptional culture. His modern storytelling made us appreciate the trip better. He is a very dynamic companion and guide. We are very much impressed, and are looking forward to more tour packages that feature the best of Japan.

What to know about Owakudani

Owakudani (Ōwakudani) is an area around a crater of the Mount Hakone volcano, which erupted approximately 3,000 years ago. It's famous for its active volcanic activity, where you can see sulfurous fumes rising from the steam vents and bubbling pools. While you're there, you have to try the famous black eggs, called kuro tamago. These eggs are boiled in hot springs and are said to give you seven extra years of life! If you're up for more adventure, the Owakudani Trail is a fantastic place to hike with amazing views of Mount Fuji on clear days. You can also hop on the Hakone Ropeway, which offers awesome views of the volcanic land and Lake Ashi as it takes you from Sounzan Station to Togendai Station. With so many things to do and see, Owakudani is a must-visit place in Japan. Don’t forget your camera, because the views are picture-perfect!
