Hakone in springtime was a masterpiece of nature. Verdant mountains, cherry blossoms, and hidden waterfalls showcased the raw power and delicate beauty of the landscape. Lake Ashi's serene waters reflected the endless sky, while Mount Fuji stood as a majestic guardian. Evenings were spent in a ryokan, enjoying the warmth of the onsen and the flavors of local cuisine. Hakone left us in awe of nature's artistry and the tranquility of Japanese hospitality.

Hakone's natural embrace captivated us for two unforgettable days. Lush landscapes unfolded at every turn, painted with the vibrant hues of springtime. We wandered through bamboo forests, sailed across the serene Lake Ashi, and witnessed the beauty of Mt Fuji.
Our ryokan embrace us in warmth and tranquility. Soaking in the onsen under a sky full of stars was pure bliss.
Hakone's beauty remain in our hearts, a moving and memorable harmony between nature and culture. It's a destination that lit up your soul and leaves you wanting for more.

I really enjoyed getting into the countryside to see a different side of Japan. The mountain train and cabel car were fun things to do. I got lucky with the weather and had a spectacular view of Mount Fuji, it was breath taking!
I would probably upgrade to a 4 star Ryokan if you can afford it as the decor in mine was rather jaded and definitely include the dinner option. I was annoyed with Japan Awaits for not warning me the Ryokan wouldn't be able to supply it if not pre-ordered and would have to schlepp it off back into town again to find something to eat!
The real gem of this tour however was my guide Izumi.
Izumi planned a route to fit in as much as possible of what I wanted to see. He was very fruendly, polite and incredibly helpful. When I arrived at the Ryokan (still exhausted from jet lag) and I couldn't get dinner he went above and beyond to help me. He long overstayed the time he had to in order to help me and thankfully was able to enlist the help of one of the owners (who was also incredibly generous with his time).
If I was rating the trip just on Izumi, it would be 5 stars+.

This was my first time in Hakone, and the two-day tour was well-organized from start to finish! Staying in a ryokan was a fantastic way to immerse ourselves in Japanese culture. The second day was free for exploration, but our guide's detailed instructions made it easy to navigate Hakone on our own. Highly recommended!

I decided to book the 2-day Hakone tour because I wanted to see Mount Fuji and explore other places in the area. Hakone is a beautiful place that not too far from Tokyo and I was very happy with the tour, which was designed to meet my interests. Our tour guide was very friendly and humorous and the driver was so solf and kind.
Mount Fuji was the highlight of the trip. We had stunning views of the mountain from several different places, including Lake Ashi, and Owakudani. We also visited a hot spring resort ourselves in the second day.
The Hakone tour from Japan Awaits was well-organized and informative, and it exceeded my expectations. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in seeing Mount Fuji and exploring the beautiful Hakone region.

Our guide Kazuo-San was very knowledgeable and experienced. He guided us from our hotel in Tokyo through to our Ryokan in Hakone. We enjoyed a full day and even got glimpses of Mt Fuji. The lunch was traditional and fantastic. We felt comfortable to travel out on our own the next day alone. Highly recommend
