Immerse yourself in relaxation and in old-world Japan with an extension to Hakone and Kyoto.
This is a free day to explore more of Tokyo and rest those weary legs! It is so important to have the day to recover, tour Tokyo without the nerves of a pending marathon, and pack before our extension departure. Take this time to enjoy your last night in Tokyo!
Breakfast
Ashi Cruise, Owakudani Ropeway & Black Eggs
Hakone Outdoor Art Museum
Stay at Spa & Onsen in Hakone for evening
After breakfast, board our FIT private bus to Hakone. En route, we will visit the volcanic valley of Owakudani, which has active sulphur vents. Try some boiled eggs straight from the hot springs! We will then enjoy lunch at a local hotel restaurant before taking the Komagatake Ropeway and a boat cruise on Lake Ashi (weather permitting - quite often these activities can be cancelled due to weather). Finally, enjoy a stroll around the famous Hakone Outdoor Art Museum before checking into our hotel for the evening.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner included
After breakfast, enjoy some free time this morning soaking up the last of the hot springs before we depart from Odawara Station for your bullet train transfer to Kyoto (please purchase lunch on your own for the bullet train). Upon arrival, we will tour Fushimi-Inari-Taisha Temple before we head to our hotel for check-in. Dinner on your own.
Breakfast
Today after breakfast we will depart to tour Arashiyama: Tenryuji Temple & Bamboo Forest & Kinkakuji. Rest of day free to explore Kyoto.
Breakfast
We have many options today. You can opt to fly home today or extend through Saturday night in Kyoto. For those flying out, if you are packed and ready to go opt to book a half-day Nara Tour with local guide that ends at Kansai Airport. Or opt to depart early from Kyoto via bullet train for a full day tour with our guide and overnight in Hiroshima.
Depart from the hotel in the morning with your luggage for a half-day tour of Nara with a local guide. Visit the deer park, explore Nara, enjoy lunch and then transit back to Kyoto with an airport drop off about 5pm. This tour concludes at Kansai Airport and is a great way to get in that last minute touring of Japan before your over night flight home.
Check out of your Kyoto hotel and join your local guide to head to the train station for your bullet train to Hiroshima. Visit the Itsukushima Shrine and the Peace Memorial Museum. Lunch is on your own. Overnight in Hiroshima.
Departure day. It has been our pleasure to travel with you and we hope that you have enjoyed your travels with FIT. After breakfast, please make your own way to the airport for your departure home or onward to your next destination.
