How does booking work — is it instant?

It is not an instant-confirm button. You send a request at the bottom of this page and we reply with a written quote: the final price, exactly what it covers, and the cancellation terms for that specific trip. The booking exists only once you accept that quote. Slower than a Book Now button, but nothing gets sold to you that is not actually available.

Will we be grouped with other travellers?

No. Every tour in these two sections is private: your party only, your own vehicle, your own host. No sharing, no waiting on strangers.

Where does pickup and drop-off happen?

Pickup and drop-off at your hotel inside the central area of the city named on the tour, included in the price. Outside that area we can still collect you — the surcharge is written into the quote, never added when you get in the car.

Can the itinerary be changed?

Yes. The hour-by-hour schedule above is the version that works best, not a fixed mould. More driving time, a different meal, an extra night, or dropping a leg — write it in your request; the price moves with it and the change is spelled out in the quote.

What languages does the team speak?

Put the language you want in your request. The quote tells you whether someone who speaks it is free ON YOUR DATE — we do not promise a language and then tell you on the day that nobody is available.

When and how do we pay?

You pay nothing before you have read and accepted the quote. Payment method, payment dates and which part needs a deposit to hold a third-party booking are all written into that quote. Nothing appears afterwards.

How far ahead should we book?

At least 7 days before your date — the request form opens from that day. You get a final itemised quote by email. Earlier is surer: small venues and cars have very few slots a day.

Two days in one of three cars — a seven-seat Alphard, a Lexus LM500, or a Mercedes G63 — with your own driver throughout. Day one climbs the Hakone pass while the road is still empty, then loops the lakes under Mount Fuji. Day two comes down through Yokohama and ends at Daikoku, the elevated car park in the middle of Tokyo Bay where the whole Kanto car scene gathers. A bilingual guide stays with you both days.

🗓️ How the day runs

Day 1 · 06:00
The car meets you in the hotel lobby while the roads are still empty. The early start is deliberate — after nine in the morning the Hakone pass fills with tour traffic and the photographs stop working.
Day 1 · 08:00
Up the Hakone Turnpike, the best mountain road near Tokyo, stopping at the viewpoints along it. On a clear morning Mount Fuji stands whole on your left.
Day 1 · 10:30
Around Lake Ashi and the sulphur vents at Owakudani. The driver sets you down at each entrance and goes to park, so none of the day is spent looking for a space.
Day 1 · 14:00
Over to the Fuji Five Lakes, stopping at Kawaguchiko and Oishi Park. Afternoon is when the water is flattest, which is when the mountain's reflection actually shows.
Day 1 · 17:30
To the hotel for the night — either staying by the lakes or back in Tokyo, whichever you choose at booking.
Day 2 · 09:00
A later start than day one, down to Yokohama along the bay road. The second day is deliberately slower because its centrepiece falls after dark.
Day 2 · 11:00
Minato Mirai and Yokohama Chinatown, with time for an unhurried lunch. If anyone wants to shop, this is the longest stop of the two days.
Day 2 · 16:00
Back to the hotel to rest and change before the night leg. There are a lot of photographs later, which is worth a break in the middle.
Day 2 · 18:00
The night leg begins: Tokyo Tower as the lights come on, then out to the Daikoku car park in the middle of the bay. Your car parked there is part of the scene rather than something watching it.
Day 2 · 20:20
Night photographs at the Shibuya crossing, then the trip ends in central Tokyo around 21:00.
