To capture the authentic atmosphere of Mt. Takao, all photos, including its natural scenery, temples, Samurai Guide Sho, local food and drinks, and bath facilities, were taken on location. The food and drinks shown were actually served there.

Please bring some cash, as Yakuo-in Temple and some shops on Mt. Takao may accept cash only. Credit cards can be used for most other payments.

Only one round-trip rail and Green Car fee applies, based on your selected start/end station. Ages 6–11: approx. ¥2,400 from Shinjuku Station or ¥3,200 from Tokyo Station. Children aged 5 and under normally travel free. We recommend loading about ¥4,000 for ages 6–11 or ¥6,000 for ages 12+ onto a Suica or PASMO card.

Please bring a physical Suica or PASMO card for a smoother Green Car experience. If you are not sure how to charge it, please bring cash on the day and I will help you.

After arriving at the nearest station to Mt. Takao, you can buy drinks or light food before the hike, withdraw cash at the Seven Bank ATM in the station, or store your luggage in a coin locker, although lockers may be full during busy seasons such as autumn leaves and cherry blossom season.

The Green Car has seat tables, drink holders, power outlets, a restroom, and trash bins, so you can enjoy your own meals or drinks on board, and it is also convenient for charging your phone or other devices.

Please wear comfortable walking shoes. Depending on your group’s fitness level, the weather, and crowd conditions, the tour may include hiking on mountain trails.

Rain gear is needed in wet weather, warm clothing is needed in colder seasons, and heatstroke prevention is needed in hot weather.

The tour operates in light rain. In severe weather, on very hot summer days, or when trail conditions are poor, the itinerary may be adjusted for safety and heatstroke prevention by combining hiking routes, the cable car, the chairlift, or other easier options.

Food stops and optional visits on the mountain may be changed or skipped depending on weather, shop opening conditions, and crowd levels.

When the cable car or chairlift is crowded, we may walk instead. The uphill hike takes about 1.5 hours, and the downhill walk takes about 30 to 40 minutes.

The standard option is a natural hot spring at the foot of Mt. Takao. Guests with tattoos cannot use this facility.

For guests with tattoos, we will choose a tattoo-friendly bathing facility or local public bath suited to your age and family needs.

Alcohol is available only to guests aged 20 and over.

As this tour includes hiking, every reasonable effort will be made to ensure safety. Participants are also asked to take responsibility for their own health and safety.

The organizer is not responsible for illness, injury, or loss or damage of personal belongings during the tour.

The tour may be terminated without refund in case of disruptive behavior.

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

This experience requires good weather.
