What to expect
This itinerary offers a three-perspective experience of the beauty of Hakone and Mount Fuji: from water, land, and air 🗻
- Start at Hakone Shrine and the Torii Gate of Lake Ashi. The red torii standing on the lake, reflecting Mount Fuji, creates a picturesque scene perfect for photos and allows you to feel the mysterious power of Japan's ancient mountain worship ⛩️. Afterward, board the Hakone Pirate Ship from Moto-Hakone Port to cruise Lake Ashi. The shimmering lake surface, torii, Mount Fuji, and lake scenery all come into view, creating a beautiful scene like something out of a movie.
- Take the Hakone Ropeway to Owakudani, overlooking the crater landscape of Lake Ashi along the way. As the ropeway slowly ascends, the outline of Mount Fuji gradually becomes clear. Upon arriving at Owakudani, experience the wonder and grandeur of volcanic geothermal activity. You can choose to taste the famous black eggs, said to add seven years to your life if you eat one 🔥. The misty atmosphere, geothermal vents, and crater terrain create a unique landscape, allowing you to fully experience the power and charm of Hakone's volcano.
- The journey will also take you to Yamanakako Swan Lake (Shiratori Hama), where numerous swans reside by the lake, creating a postcard-perfect photo opportunity with Mount Fuji in the background 🦢. Afterward, visit Oshino Hakkai, eight clear springs formed by filtered snowmelt from Mount Fuji. The springs are crystal clear, reflecting Mount Fuji and the blue sky, as if entering a fairytale water village. Each spot offers a serene and healing beautiful view.
* The entire route perfectly blends nature, volcanic wonders, and lake scenery. Whether for photography, strolling, or experiencing the mysterious power of shrines and volcanoes, you can immerse yourself in the charm of Hakone and Mount Fuji 📷✨. Every step is a double delight for the eyes and soul, making the trip full of surprises and unforgettable memories.

Reviews
Reviews summaryToday's itinerary was smooth and enjoyable, offering great value for money. We got to take a boat and cable car in Hakone, and also visited Oshino Hakkai and Lake Yamanaka. The scenery was beautiful, and the breeze by the lake was very pleasant. It's worth mentioning that our tour guide, Yuan Yang, provided excellent service. He was fluent in Chinese, Korean, and Japanese, enthusiastic, and great at creating a lively atmosphere. His explanations and guided tours were very detailed, and he thoughtfully reminded us of important information. The itinerary was meticulously planned, and he even managed to secure the hard-to-get boat tickets that were an optional expense during the trip. Since I was traveling alone, he also helped me find good spots for photos. I highly recommend him. Today's driver, Mr. Nakamori (Japanese), was also very charming; he tried to speak with us in Chinese, and his driving was smooth and safe.
kousei did a great job during the tour . Tour was good we did a lot . We were the famous black eggs to extend 7 years of our life. Saw Mt.Fuji from the bus. We had a great lunch ,love the lake trip on the pirate boat . just wish to have gone closer to the mountain but overall we had a great time . Our tour guy was very knowledgeable and very pleasant .
We spent a beautiful day in Hakone despite Mt. Fuji not being visible. We opted for a small group tour and was able to depart Tokyo early. We arrived at Hakone shrine before many other tour groups arrived and had a few peaceful moments to enjoy. We opted for first class tix on the pirate ship which allows you to skip the line and have a separate area to enjoy the bow of the ship and take some Titanic photos. We were onto the ropeway right after and off to Owakudani. There, we ate the famous black eggs, black ice cream and bought many souvenir items. Bring cash and don’t waste your time lining up for the ATM. Andy guided us through each and every step, and the day went by smoothly. If the possibility of seeing Mt. Fuji is low, Hakone is the better option than Kawaguchiko as there are other fun things to do.
I wish we could have done this tour over and over. Absolutely breathtaking views, our guide Mila was fun and energetic. I do wish we had more time at locations and the choice for restaurant could have been better, but all in all, fantastic experience!
Highly recommended! Everything was perfect throughout the entire itinerary. Special thanks to Wanting, who was very friendly and attentive all day. Also, thanks to the driver for their work. I was very happy with this experience!
We had a great trip yesterday, and I’d especially like to commend our tour guide, Kousei, for being very pleasant, friendly, and keeping everything well organized throughout the tour. He made the experience smooth and enjoyable for everyone. It was unfortunate that we weren’t able to ride the ship and cable car due to the bad weather, which was a bit disappointing, but we understand that safety always comes first. Overall, we still appreciated the experience and Kousei’s excellent guidance and effort.
Such a wonderful experience. We covered so many spots in one day that would've been impossible by train or car. Mizki-san was the highlight: energetic, incredibly kind, and full of great stories that brought every place to life. She kept the pace perfect and made sure everyone felt included. Highly recommend this tour if you want to see more without the hassle.
the tour guide: kousei was really knowledgeable, competent and the tour was well organized…. Kousei explained to us all the steps so there was no confusion we knew and understood all the information we needed to have a great time and a cultural one as well… I was amazed! Unfortunately we are going back home to New York tomorrow so I will not be able to book another tour but I will advertise this tour to any of my friends traveling to Tokyo. I highly recommend this tour. In one day we visited a lot of place at a great price. Thanks to Kousei… April 26, 2026

Had such a great experience on the Mt. Fuji & Hakone tour! 🗻✨ Our tour guide, Laila, was incredibly kind, accommodating, and made the whole trip feel smooth and enjoyable. She explained everything clearly and kept the group well-organized while still making it fun. Special shoutout as well to our driver, who went the extra mile (literally!) and extended the drive a bit due to traffic just to make sure we still had a complete and comfortable experience. Overall, everything was well-coordinated and stress-free. Definitely a memorable day and highly recommended if you want to explore Mt. Fuji and Hakone without the hassle! 💯
