Hakone Onsen-turer

Travelled as a family with 2 adult sons. There were about 16 members in our group and we rode a Toyota coaster which felt a little cramped. Our tour guide was William and he did very well speaking in Chinese and English. At Lake Kawaguchi you have to select if you want the cable car or ship ride. We got both tickets but there was no more time left for the boat ride. At Mt. Fuji 5th station and Owakudani it was very cold and windy. At Lake Ashi we opted for a picture at the torii which had a long queue, instead of hiking to the shrines. The Shuzenji Resort hotel dinner and breakfast was filling with a variety of delicious japanese food, we had a good night's sleep, especially after bathing at the onsen. Were not able to do "Matcha Mountain" but were taken to another park which was our favorite part of the tour because the view & atmosphere was very serene, a less touristy spot. At Enoshima we had a good lunch at our expense, William led us walking and then riding the train to Kamakura.

Tusen takk, Sherry, for at du tok oss med for å oppleve det vakre synet av Fujifjellet, den avslappende atmosfæren i Shuzenji, og den utsøkte maten på ryokanen. Alt ble så mye bedre takk til Sherrys nøye planlegging. Takk for at du ga oss uforglemmelige minner fra Japan, og vi håper å få sjansen til å bli med på en av turene dine igjen en annen gang! 🇯🇵🗻✨ Reiseleder: Sherry er fantastisk 👍👍👍👍👍 Reiseplanlegging: Fantastisk Transportvalg: Fantastisk Attraksjoner: Fantastisk Overnattingsvalg: Fantastisk, det var veldig behagelig å kunne bade i varme kilder (onsen) ♨️

The trip to Mount Fuji and Hakone was very well-structured and organized, right from the beginning until the time we ended the trip via Shinkansen and returned to Tokyo Station. Our tour guide, Ms. Rachel, was excellent and had very good English pronunciation. She was able to explain about every location that we went to and was very punctual, driving the team back to the bus on time. The options of the meal for local Japanese cuisine were also good, and so was the venue. The variety of the meals could be slightly better, but overall, it was a decent meal break for lunch. The trip was enjoyable. Our stop at the fifth station of Mount Fuji was beautiful, allowing us to get a clear view of Mount Fuji after our morning start. This was followed by lunch around 11:00 or 11:15, then a visit to the Hakone Ropeway, and afterward, a ride on the amazing pirate ship. The return journey via Shinkansen was also a good experience. We were able to get seats in Shinkansen bullet train.

Fun trip, clean and comfortable bus, a nice and different experience. Atami is very pretty. A packed dinner is recommended because it's very crowded and difficult to find a spot.

highly recommend! well organised, on time with a clean and spacious car. thank you to Rika for guiding us!
