We had a fantastic experience with our guide Yoshi. He was very informative and he adapted quickly to change the itinerary as we had to drop our bags at the hotel. He also took us to a wonderful Udon lunch place which was a delight. We highly recommend Yoshi.

Eric was a great guide. We just ran out of time. Missed the ferry connection which delayed us 30 mins so i missed the Tori gate at the end. And a snow blizzard started as we got to the lake. Perfect trip until that point. I would recommend you book with Eric and don’t stop for food or souvenirs etc. Eat ob the go and maximise your time. And ensure the timetables for the bus and boat are understood in advance so you can maximise your time and connect withiut delays. He speaks excelent english and is great company for the day.
You don't need a private car. The transport around Hakone is designed for tourists. Buy the Hakone Free Pass either at Shinjuko to include your base fare to and from hakone, or buy it at hakone to cover transport there. It was just under 5000 yen at Hakone station. It may be better value to gwt at Shinjuko. It also gets you a discout at open air museum and free intry into a park. Don’t forget to also buy your Romancecar seat reservation to and feom Hakone on top of your base fare. Can easily book online. Take screenshots of your booking. You can log back in later if you want to check them. Do bot need to print them out.
All in all a highlight of my 2 weeks in Japan. Enjoy!

Hi 218trinad,
Thank you so much for your comment!
It is a shame that the weather suddenly turned bad.
We are happy to hear that you enjoy the tour overall and like Eric's company.
About the delay, we will figure out what else we can do to coordinate it better in the future.
Again, thank you so much for your comment and we will keep on improving our service.
Best,

Naoko was an amazing tour guide very informative on Japanese culture and tradition. We had a very eventful day and learned so much from her! I especially loved the boat sections of the tour and trying the black eggs cooked in the volcanic baths! The views were gorgeous. Definitely book this tour and if possible try to get Naoko :)

We had an amazing time with Fumi who showed us all the places we probably could not find on our own. He answered our questions about the locations and Japanese culture and was patient with us as we explored around as well as shows us many beautiful locations. Overall, it was an excellent experience that I would recommend others to do as well when I’m Hakone.

Great tour of Hakone. Tom was an excellent guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Started by giving us a map and explaining the route of the tour, took pictures of us along the way and later emailed us our pictures with the locations of each picture labeled. He also gave us a very thoughtful gift in honor of our honeymoon. If there was one drawback, it was the amount of walking towards the end of the tour on the way to the Hakone shrine was a little excessive given the low temperatures.

Yoshi was a very competent guide, he explained all the aspects of the tour and what we saw and experienced very thoroughly. He had a well planned itinerary and delivered us back at the station in time for our train , helping us to book seats for our returning journey to Tokyo.
