Come with me as I go on a Hakone day trip from Tokyo! I got to visit all famous Hakone attractions in a one day tour I booked in Klook 🧡✨

First on the trip, I visited Oshino Hakkai 🌄, a popular group of eight ponds in Oshino, a small village near Mt. Fuji. These ponds are between two big lakes, Lake Kawaguchiko and Lake Yamanakako. The view of Mt. Fuji from Oshino-Hakkai are among the best I’ve seen!

Next, I went to Gotemba Premium Outlet 🛍️, an outlet mall near Mt Fuji. The best thing about outlet shopping is the low prices. Here, many stores offer tax-free shopping. You can even get coupons from the info center that you can use at the shops. The prices at these outlets are way better than those in downtown Tokyo, so it’s definitely worth a visit!

Then, I took the iconic Hakone Ropeway 🚠 from Sounzan Station to Owakudani Station. It’s only an 8-minute ride to Owakudani Valley and I got to see perfect and clear views of Mt. Fuji on the way!

Arriving at Owakudani Valley or Jigokudani 🗻, I took the opportunity to try the famous Owakudani black ice cream and egg-flavored ice cream. It has a unique yet flavorful taste, worth trying out! Also, make sure to try Owakudani’s kuro-tamago or black eggs for good luck.

Last on the tour, I boarded the majestic Hakone Sightseeing Cruise 🚢 which cruised from Togendai Port to Moto Hakone Port to Lake Ashi. The view of Hakone from the lake on the top deck of the ship is really stunning and makes for perfect photo spots. Plus, on the ship, both kids and grown-ups can have fun with 3D art, pirate stuff, and more!

There’s so much things to do in Hakone in one day so plan your visit now and book the tour in Klook!
