Good to know
【About the Activity】 The Hakone Ropeway and Hakone Pirate Ship on Lake Ashi may be suspended due to various reasons (strong winds, heavy rain, temporary maintenance). We may visit other attractions (also to respect the itinerary on busy traffic days), such as Hakone Shrine & Lake Ashi Water Torii.
From December 01 to April 25, we will visit the Mount Fuji World Heritage Centre instead of the Fuji Five Lakes 5th Station (due to the closure of the 5th station in winter). If we cannot reach the Fuji Five Lakes 5th Station due to bad weather, road accidents, road closures, etc., we will go to a substitute attraction: Mount Fuji World Heritage Centre.
If you choose to return by Shinkansen, please note that there are no reserved seats; you can only use the non-reserved seating cars. There are 2 Shinkansen trains per hour from Odawara to Tokyo Station. In addition, the tour guide will not accompany you on the train to Tokyo. (The Shinkansen has a speed advantage on the return trip and is faster than the bus. The journey to Tokyo takes about 30 minutes, but please note that due to limited train times, there may be a waiting time for the train.)
If you have special dietary needs, please let us know. We regret that we do not offer gluten-free meals, but we can accommodate most allergy requirements.
