Hakone Customized Private Tour in 1 Day — Guide Hiro

Title: What Is a Private Hakone Day Tour Like? A Licensed Guide's Report on Owakudani, Lake Ashi, and Hakone-Yumoto

The guests were always smiling and full of laughter throughout the day. Although they had experienced an earthquake a few days earlier for the first time, they said the natural beauty of Japan was wonderful. Unfortunately, Mount Fuji could not be seen from Owakudani, but they enjoyed the famous black eggs. On the sightseeing pirate ship, the view of the deep green scenery from the deck was especially impressive, and they filmed a video of the combination of the red torii gate and the pirate ship. At a donburi restaurant, they fully enjoyed a soba lunch while delighting in my explanations about kanji and the exchanges with the staff. At a local specialty shop, they cheered during the presentation of yosegi marquetry woodwork and purchased souvenirs. Afterward, they expressed a wish to do their own shopping and have dinner, so I explained how to reach the Hakone museum area and how to return to Hakone-Yumoto, and the tour concluded with their understanding. A notable stop on the tour was Lake Ashi, a scenic crater lake in the Hakone area formed by volcanic activity thousands of years ago. The lake is famous for its sightseeing cruise ships styled as pirate ships, offering views of the surrounding mountains and, on clear days, Mount Fuji. Along its shores stands the striking red torii gate of Hakone Shrine, which appears to rise from the water and is one of the most photographed spots in the region.
