are there onboard toilets on buses at nikko?
Before purchasing the Hakone freepass, please ask for the Hakone freepass brochure and read the fine print on the bottom of the front page. There is a rule that says, "The Hakone Freepass (including those valid for multiple days) cannot be used after returning to your departure station." Basically, the freepass is encourages people to stay in Hakone to fully benefit from it. It doesn't matter if two or three days pass once you return back to Shinjuku station, the freepass cannot be reused again. In our case the station staff took away our two-day pass which was only used for one day. Anyway, I think I should put it out there to let everyone know there is a rule they need to know about it. Love your videos.
Pas besoin de se lever aux aurores pour visiter Nikko 7:51 😊
Pas besoin de me lever aux aurores pour visiter Nikko…
Thanks for the great video and info. How early should i travel from Tokyo using JR pass to Nikko? Can i cover the following in 1 day Toshugo shrine shinkyo bridge Kanmanga Fuchi abyss Chuzenji lake kegon falls? Thanks so much.
Thank! I love how thorough you were with you coverage of the stores 😁👍
Nice video
This was a great video since it showed what it was like taking the Romance Car to Hakone and also showed the Open Air Museum, which I haven't seen in any other videos. I was hoping you could clarify 3 points. One, since you took the Romance Car, but had to sit backyards for the duration of the trip, while I noticed that this has large windows to see the scenery, did you really think it was worth taking (gather it takes an extra half house vs. taking the Shinkansen). I think you mentioned or I heard that you can typically view all the exhibits in 1 to 1.5 hours. Would you agree....since you mentioned the large Picasso exhibit, I wondered if this is enough time. I also noted that you said you'd be doing a vlog which shows the famous Tori gate & shrine, the ship tour (pirate ship) and a visit to Owakudani. Did you take this trip?....I didn't see any video and wanted to watch it. Thanks for making this interesting. Cheers, Ron
Hi If I have JR pass, can i still use it to go to Nikko?
Nikko is a place I want to visit when I go to Japan in November but we will only have one day and would really like to visit the falls and go down the elevator there, and lake if possible and also the shrine. We will use our JR pass so not sure what other ticket would be better to buy once we arrive? How will we get around Nikko and fit everything into one day 🤔
Wow, the POV style of this video is amazing! Thanks 🙏
Did you see Zenko?
Please make the summer vlog so that people visiting in summer will know which clothes to bring.
Hi! Can you share where to buy waterbus tickets from Hamarikyu to Asakusa? Please share the timetable as well. Thank you 😊
are u using TWP for local train to get to Nikko?
Thank you for this video! I will do the same round trip on May 16th of this year. I will stay in Gora too! I'm very excited to explore Hakone and the rest of Japan!
Hope you enjoy it!
Great video, I want to do this day trip in August!
Have fun!
thanks for the video! do you think its worth to go? does this trip take up whole day to travel to?
Yes, it’s worth a trip and it’s best to set aside a whole day for it!
@@spellbindingjapan thanks!!

Very Beautiful
Is the third floor terrace level with the building? Is it completely leveled in with the building the hotel? or does it stick out like it does here in the States like stick out further than the building?
The terrace sticks out to the side of the building, without anything above it.

No this is fine. Love the video. Do you think 4~5 days in Karuizawa is too long? Should I stay in Tokyo and go to Karuizawa as a side trip? Looking for a town where I can just bum around...looks like the perfect place for what I want. What do you think?
Our family had a summer house on Kumoba pond back in the 70s. We spent 2 months every summer in Karuizawa. I've actually seen John Lennon and Yoko Ono riding around Karuizawa on a tandem bike, many times, back in the day. I never spoke to them but I know people who have and by all accounts they were very approachable, friendly and chatty. Karuizawa is like my second hometown. Other than the outlet mall and the new train station it really hasn't changed that much. You call it the Hamptons of Japan. I call it the Gatlinburg of Japan. 😂
