A Mt Fuji and Hakone day tour from Tokyo covering the ropeway over Owakudani, the sulphur vents of an active volcanic valley, Hakone Shrine with its torii gate in Lake Ashi, and a cruise across the crater lake itself. One coach, one guide, no timetables to work out.
The ropeway climbs over a valley that is still geologically active — steam rising from the hillside, the smell of sulphur, vegetation that gives up partway. On a clear day Fuji sits behind it. It is the part of the day guests photograph most.
Owakudani was formed by an eruption three thousand years ago and has not settled since. Your guide explains what is happening under the surface and why the area is monitored as closely as it is.
The shrine sits in cedar forest above the lake, with its torii gate standing in the water below. The gate has become one of the most photographed objects in Japan, and there is usually a queue for it. Your guide will tell you whether it is worth joining that day.
The day finishes with a cruise across Lake Ashi, which fills the caldera of the volcano you have been standing on. From the water the scale of the whole thing finally makes sense.
Depart from the LOVE sculpture in Nishi-Shinjuku.
Over the valley, with Fuji behind on a clear day.
The volcanic valley floor.
The shrine in the forest, and the torii gate in the lake.
A cruise across the crater lake, then the return to Tokyo.
Tokyo Station OR The LOVE sculpture at Nishi-Shinjuku, Shinjuku City. Your guide will contact you on WhatsApp beforehand. The end stop will also be at this location.
The coach, all road transport and your English-speaking guide are included. The ropeway ticket, the lake cruise and lunch are paid on the day if you choose to take them.
It closes at short notice when volcanic activity rises. If that happens your guide adjusts the route and you still see the shrine, the lake and the ropeway's lower section.
Often, but not always. Cloud hides it on many days and no operator can promise otherwise.
Not much. This is a coach day with short walks at each stop.
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start time. Bookings are confirmed instantly.
