Kashima expertly guided my son and I with a day tour of Hakone. All the logistics for the day were smooth and exactly as promised, and Kashima matched his pace to ours. He was very attentive to detail, and spent a lot of effort to explain the history and geology of Hakone in a very useful and interesting way. Hakone itself was beautiful, and I especially enjoyed visiting the checkpoint on the former Tokkaido Road and the replica waystation there. Kashima took care to optimize our time with him, and returned us exactly where we needed to be to continue our onward trip. Excellent day in Hakone with Kashima, and I would recommend!
Keith san, thank you very much for your upmost review for me. I am very much pleased that you and your son could very much enjoyed this tour. Hakone is located in a big Caldera and 4 small calderas created inside the big caldera which had been created by repeated eruption from 40k years ago to 3k years ago. Those nature power had created lots of good hot springs and enormous beautiful nature such as Oowakudani valley, Lake-Ashi and small mountain accumulated by lava where Hakone shrine located. As such, Hakone is the nature and historical culture theme park with well prepared original transportation such as Hakone Tozan railway, cable car, Ropeway, Pirate cruising on Lake-Asi and Tozan bus. Thanks to you and your son strong curiosity, we could exchange various information and interesting conversation. I hope that you visit Japan again with your family in near future so that I can introduce other nice tour spots in Japan for you. Thanks, Kashima

Bruce san, thank you very much for your upmost review for me. I am very much pleased that you could enjoy the Kanazawa tour with me. Kanazawa is said to be little Kyoto by the tour spots of Kanazawa Castle remains, Kenrokuen garden, Samurai residence, traditional shrine, fish market and so-on that are all related to the biggest feudal load as Maeda family during 16th century to 19th century. I think you could relax to see Kanazawa which are not so much jammed compared with Kyoto. We could make funny communication for various interesting topics. Thank you very much for your strong interest for Japanese culture and history. Kashima,
