Exceptional tour & driver! - Mir was an excellent driver and guide, he knew Hakone very well. He tailors and customizes the tour to fit your specifications, he also knows how long certain distances take for each tourist spot and if there will be sufficient time for you to enjoy everything. He took us to the open air museum and pre purchased the tickets for us and guided us to the entrance. He was extremely helpful with our bags as well. Mir is very kind and attentive and will work hard to make your expiration wonderful. Don’t hesitate to book with him!

Thanks, Mir! - The tour was great, Mir was an awesome guide and was accommodating when picking me up from the station and dropping me off at my hotel in Hakone later on. He's flexible with time and knowledgable about the area, the places we visited, and went above and beyond to make sure I enjoyed my experience despite the weather at that time.

Perfect day in Hakone - We had an amazing day in Hakone. Our driver Mir picked us up from our hotel lobby and helped inform and offer suggestions on possible options and helped us create our perfect day. He was very informative and helpful. We were able to hit all the important sights we wanted to see and spend the evening at a beautiful onsen.

Disaster - The "Guide", a Pakistani immigrant 10 years ago, has no idea about Japan, its culture, its history and religion and fancies any answers to questions. In general, it was important to him to get the tour over with as soon as possible to go home. At the end, he offered us a private ride to Tokyo the next day. This is more comfortable than with the Shinkansen. That probably says enough.

Beware of "custom" tour. - Beware!! The tour is only customized within the immediate area and doesn't include any of your entrance fees. You are better off purchasing the Hakone free pass from Klook which includes buses trains and cable car, ropeway, and boat on lake ashi. In fact when we tried to get out of the area because we had done some things already our tour guide Mir canceled the tour but we already had the free pass and it worked out better.
