Mt Takao Hike & Onsen by Train from Shinjuku with Ex-JR Conductor
After guiding passengers for 22 years as a conductor on the JR Chuo Line, Samurai Guide Sho brings together the train ride, a Mt. Takao hike, a visit to Yakuoin Temple, and an onsen in a private journey tailored to your group. Depart from Shinjuku or Tokyo Station and travel comfortably to Mt. Takao aboard the JR Chuo Line Green Car (premium seating). This time, you are the “passenger.” At Mt. Takao, walk through the quiet forest, enjoy local mountain specialties along the way, and experience Japanese culture at Yakuoin Temple as you slow your pace and clear your mind. On clear days, see Mt. Fuji from near the summit, then enjoy panoramic views from the chairlift on the way down. Sneakers are fine, and families with young children are welcome. To finish the day, relax at an onsen or tattoo-friendly bathing facility. If you prefer not to bathe, you can switch to a local food experience or one local craft beer instead. Return comfortably to Shinjuku on the JR Chuo Line Green Car.
