Tokyo Stopovers
Tokyo is a city constantly buzzing with activity. Suited businessmen rush from one meeting to the next, immaculately turned out girls trotter precariously on impossible thick platform soles, while kimono clad housewives fill the up-market department stores. Bars and restaurants are stacked up one on top of another, ablaze with neon as soon as dusk begins to fall.
Day 1 Arrive Tokyo
On arrival at Narita Airport you’ll be met and transferred to the Narita Express train for your journey to Tokyo. Taxi vouchers are provided for your transfer from the station to your chosen hotel where you’ll stay for three nights.
Day 2 Tokyo
Enjoy a full day private tour of the city with a local guide, travelling by public transport, in order to help you to get a real feel for Japan’s capital. Included is a 40 minute boat ride down the Sumida River and entrance to Hamarikyu Gardens, an oasis of calm in the heart of the city. You’ll also visit the National Museum or Edo Tokyo Museum. The guide will call you the day before to discuss the day’s touring so you can tell them if you have anything in particular you don’t want to miss.
Day 3 Hakone
Today you will be making a full day excursion to Mt Fuji and the Hakone National Park. Your day will get underway with the drive to the 5th Station of Mt Fuji from where, weather permitting, you’ll be able to take in the spectacular views before moving to Hakone, where you’ll board a cruise boat and travel across Lake Ashi to Hakone-en Garden. From the garden, you’ll take the ropeway up Mt Komagatake for a spectacular panoramic view of Mt Fuji and the valley below. Lunch is included. Return to Tokyo on the Bullet Train (unreserved).
Day 4 Depart Tokyo
Transfer by the Narita Express train to the airport where your flying visit to Tokyo ends.
