Kanagawa in One Day: Narukawa Museum & Parting — Guide Mike

What Is a Private Hakone Tour Like on a Rainy Day? A Licensed Guide's Report

The guests were a tour group from Oceania. From the morning meeting time until around 1:00 PM, the weather was rainy and visibility was extremely poor. Mount Fuji never appeared even for a moment throughout the tour.

Despite this, the guests kept smiling throughout and seemed to genuinely enjoy the tour. For lunch, some of the guests had specific dietary preferences, but at a restaurant I had found through advance research, everyone was able to enjoy the meal without any problems.

Throughout the tour, the guests enjoyed traveling on a variety of transportation, including a bus, a boat, a ropeway, a cable car, and a mountain railway. When the scheduled six hours had passed at the final destination, the Hakone Open-Air Museum, I explained the return route and then parted ways with the group on the museum grounds. I believe the guests enjoyed themselves.
