Description

Begin your journey with a comfortable pickup from your Tokyo hotel and travel to the historic Odawara area. Start at Ishigakiyama Ichiya Castle, a hidden mountain fortress connected with Toyotomi Hideyoshi’s campaign against Odawara. Explore its atmospheric stone remains and enjoy panoramic views over Odawara and Sagami Bay. Continue to Odawara Castle, one of the region’s most recognizable historic landmarks, before heading deeper into Hakone. Explore Hakone-Yumoto, the traditional gateway to Hakone, then visit the peaceful Hakone Shrine surrounded by forest beside Lake Ashi. Take in the beautiful mountain and lakeside scenery before continuing to Owakudani, a volcanic valley created by Hakone’s volcanic activity. This private tour combines places that many visitors see separately into one carefully planned day. Rather than focusing only on the famous Hakone highlights, the experience connects Japan’s samurai heritage with its natural landscapes, giving you a broader and more memorable introduction to the region. At the end of the day, relax in your private vehicle and enjoy the journey back to Tokyo.
