Easygoing Nature Walk in Hakone Tour
Hakone is surrounded by steep mountains. A popular tour is hiking in one of the mountains. However, what guests would probably do is to watch their steps most of the time not to fall down or off the trails. Instead, the tour I'm offering is to walk around relatively flat areas so the guests can spend more time to look around to appreciate the nature in Hakone with proper introduction by the guide. As Hakone is in the national park, there are areas where guests are not allowed to approach for the protection of the nature. We will use compact binoculars from time to time during the tour to get clearer views of wild birds or far off spots. Guests will meet wild flowers, insects, or wild birds, some of which are unique in Hakone or Japan, and, if lucky, we may spot wild mammals such as deer, wild boars, raccoon dogs. Hakone never ceases to make me wonder. Let's enjoy the nature in Hakone together!
Private Tour from North Kamakura Temples & Shrine
This tour will mainly visit beautiful temples that are popular among the locals, not the usual tourist attractions. Different from touristy and crowded temples, you will be able to relax and enjoy the quiet temples with the flowers, moss, greenery, and in late fall, the autumn leaves. The guide is not a guide sent from Tokyo. The tour guide is a local who has lived near the Kamakura area for about 40 years, loves the tour course and the temples, and has a government certification. The guide's explanation of Kamakura's history and traditions will bring you even closer to the people of that time. For example, 800-year-old cut-through and the tragedy of the princess enshrined in the Jizo Hall. The guide's explanations can be reduced on request. This is a private tour where only you or your couple walk around together. This means that you can enjoy this tour without being bothered by other guests. The tour ends at noon, so you are free to make your own plans for the afternoon.
