Our tour guide, Belle, provided enthusiastic and professional commentary on each tourist attraction, offering warm service and attentive care to every member of the group. In Hakone, we boarded a pirate ship to admire the harmony between the land and the lake, then disembarked and took a cable car to enjoy the changing vegetation and the magnificent rolling mountains. Arriving at Owakudani, the air was filled with the natural smell of sulfur. Before us lay the landscape left by a volcano thousands of years ago, telling the story of how years of accumulated energy erupted a millennium ago. It resembled a magnified version of Xiaoyoukeng in Taipei, Taiwan, giving us a deeper understanding of how scorching the magma underground was and how nature itself shaped the land. Finally, we visited Enoshima, located in Fujisawa City, Kanagawa Prefecture. It's a land-connected island with a circumference of 4km and an elevation of 60m. The road leading to Enoshima Shrine is lined with streets selling seafood barbecue, local specialties, sweets, and souvenirs. As you ascend the steps, the Ejima Shrine comes into view. Following local customs, I scooped up some natural water to purify myself, then offered prayers before entering the shrine, thanking everyone who had helped me along the way, and praying for the health and safety of everyone, my friends, and myself! 🐳💖🌈
Don't expect sunshine all the time, the weather is always likely to change.
Our tour guide David explained everything to us like why certain measures were taken for my trip as the morning weather was against us. I would totally book from them again. The only real issue was that mandarin was what our tour guide spoke more since the majority understood mandarin. English language they struggle a bit but they try their best to accommodate the English only speakers.
The overall vibes places we went to were fun, and Fuji San even gave us a glimpse despite the terrible fog.
