A pilgrimage to the iconic locations of the movie “Tokyo Drift” — visiting Mount Nokogiri, enjoying incredibly fresh seafood at a local fish market known only to locals at the harbor, and finishing the day at a drift car specialty garage favored by local street racers — truly a real-life “Tokyo Drift” tour.

Children can run, climb, cycle, ride boats, and make memories, while parents can simply enjoy the day with them.

his route focuses entirely on Hakone instead of combining it with distant Fuji Five Lakes attractions, reducing unnecessary travel and allowing more time at each stop. The journey connects four contrasting landscapes: the cedar forest and lakeside setting of Hakone Shrine, the open waters of Lake Ashi, the volcanic terrain of Owakudani, and the seasonal highlands of Sengokuhara. The default itinerary is: Hakone Shrine → Hakone Pirate Ship / Lake Ashi Cruise → Owakudani Valley → Sengokuhara. The Lake Ashi cruise also forms part of the route. While guests cross the lake, the driver repositions the vehicle and meets them near the arrival pier, creating a smoother connection between the southern and northern shores. Private transportation reduces the need for multiple train and bus transfers. Smaller-group options include an English-speaking driver-guide, while larger groups may select vehicle-only service or an option with a separate English-speaking guide.
