Epic memory of Hakone with Hide - My family and I had the most amazing experience with Hide at our Hakone 8 hour private tour. The adventure began by taking the cable carts at Gora leading us to the gondola to see the beautiful greenery of Hakone mountains and then the contrast of the volcanic side. Prior to our departure at the gondola, my two daughters were able to send off postcards from one of the gift shops. Once we arrived at the volcanic side, Hide took us to taste the Hakone black eggs which supposedly give a person seven more years of life. We enjoyed this very much! After learning the chemistry of these volcanic eggs, we then headed towards Lake Aishi on the pirate boat. It was a beautiful day where we got to go up on the deck to see the scenic views of the lake and green backdrop. What we appreciated most with Hide is his attention for detail. He was very accommodating and flexible if we wanted to stop, slow the pace, and most importantly helped my mother in law get a table at a coffee shop while the rest of my family went on a small walk up to the temple. Additionally, he took us to the most delicious restaurant that served such good food and even experienced grating fresh wasabi. We ended the tour by tasting the best matcha shaved ice at the 400 year old tea house. The final tour ended with a peaceful cable cart train ride up while viewing the beautiful greenery of Hakone mountains. It felt as if we were part of nature. Heidi was so polite, friendly, and hospitable. A memory that will last forever. Thank you Hide!

Hakone is worth the trip! - Do not miss Hakone! An easy trip from Tokyo on the the high speed romance car will take you to this beautiful mountain escape where you can experience nature, amazing views, volcanos, temples and gardens away from the city. We had a wonderful day exploring the area with our excellent guide, Yoshi. We took the train from Tokyo the day before our tour and spent time on our own exploring the Hakone Outdoor Museum (do not miss this!) and enjoying the Onsen and dinner at our Ryokan. Yoshi picked us up the next morning with a plan for the perfect day for me and my two adult daughters. The tour took us to the area's popular spots and also a few unique spots that we would not have discovered on our own. We experienced a traditional tea ceremony, ate black eggs, sailed on the pirate ship on lake Ashi, took the ropeway, saw Mt. Fuju, learned about wood crafts, visited amazing gardens and so much more! Yoshi was very knowledgeable about Japan, its history and traditions. He kept the tour well paced and organized in such a way that we were able to see all the sites yet also enjoy some quiet moments, like lunch at a small, out of the way Sushi restaurant which was truly local and served the freshest fish and best sushi of our trip. I feel like we learned and understood so much more about Hakone and Japan by having Yoshi as our guide. He was thoughtful and kind and a great photographer as well. We communicated before the trip and he did a great job planning the perfect day for me and my daughters. I highly recommend you make the time to visit Hakone (stay at least one night) and book Yoshi as your guide for the day.

“Best Hakone Guided Day Trip” - I would like to say that our guide RYUTA Arita was the reason for our rating of 5. He was very knowledgeable and informative about the points of interest and very pleasant. He customized our tour based on our points of interest and most importantly he made sure that we went to the best view points for Mount Fuji. We were fortunate for having a very clear day in July during the rainy season. Also due the very high temperatures 94 degrees he planned our trip to be in the shaded & coolest areas during the hottest times. I would definitely recommend this tour and especially if you could request RYUTA Arita as your guide. Aloha

Great tour of Hakone with free pass - Seky was an amazing guide for us. He did a fantastic job customizing and accommodating our group of 8. He went out of his way to make sure everything was timed and was accommodating to our restaurant request for lunch as well. We had a great time and would recommend Seky to anyone.
