Overview

We get to explore a Temple, see Snow Monkeys, eat Ramen, connect with Nature, and enjoy Japan's Hot Spring Culture all in one day. Away from the big crowds and the rush of downtown Tokyo, we'll be able to move at a relaxed pace.

There's also a Cable-car ride, Chair Lift, Suspension bridge, and many more things along the way. Your guide will be fluent in English & Japanese, and will feel more like a local friend. Instead of shouting orders and time restrictions, he'll share insights about Japan, giving tips and recommendations, and allowing you to enjoy your day.

After exploring the mountain, we'll refresh, relax, and rejuvenate in a Natural Hot Spring facility. For those with tattoos, no need to worry, as we will go to a Hot Spring facility that allows tattoos! There are indoor and outdoor spring baths, a cold bath, and a Sauna too.

Wear Comfortable shoes, and you can even bring a change of clothes to change off after the Hot Spring if your prefer!
