Mr Yamamoto is the thirteenth generation manager of Amasake Chaya Teahouse. Together with his family, including potential 14th generation managers son and daughter, their quaint little establishment serves thirsty Tokaido travellers with the sweet, warm, amasake their family has been serving for four centuries. Due to the lightweight construction of the teahouse, there have been many versions of the building over the centuries, on both sides of the road. The current structure was refurbished to traditional style in 2009 – the thatched roof doesn’t use a single nail. Be sure also to check out their small museum with original feudal period Tokaido artifacts.
1 ώ. Είσοδος περιλαμβάνεταιLunch by Lake Ashi, a 700m deep crater lake with red tori gates in the water
1 ώ. Δωρεάν είσοδοςCedar Avenue Hakone. Four centuries ago exactly, the second Edo Period Shogun, Tokugawa Hidetada, ordered the planting of sugi (Japanese Cedar, Cryptomeria japonica) along both sides of Tokaido to shade travellers as they made their way around the shoreline of Lake Ashinoko towards Hakone Checkpoint. 420 of these magnificant specimens remain, towering straight, fat, and proud into the Hakone sky along Cedar Avenue.
30 λεπτά Δωρεάν είσοδοςTokaido had checkpoints at various intervals to ensure that travellers were bonefide and to protect the Shogun in the capital, Edo. Hakone was the closest checkpoint to Edo, so was one of the most severely policed. Perched between the waters of Lake Ashinoko and the steep mountainous terrain of Hakone, Tokaido travellers had no alternative but to submit to inspection.
30 λεπτά Δωρεάν είσοδοςBack to 1590. Hojo’s western boundary is protected by Yamanaka Castle, literally meaning “castle in the mddle of the mountain”. The site is true to its name, but despite impressive earthworks to create defences accentuating the site’s naturally steep terrain, Yamanaka Castle is quick to fall to the might of the force from the west on its way along Tokaido eastwards to surround Odawara. A visit to the castle ruins today is rewarded with spectacular views from its highest point of Mt Fuji, weather permitting.

The hike is a truly unique experience. Tony has a great knowledge of the history of the area and takes the time and care to explain as much as he can. From drinking tea and meeting a 13th generation tea master to stopping at shrines and monuments along the way this is truly unforgettable experience. Could not recommend this tour more.
This hike was amazing and Tony was an incredible guide. Tony is knowledgeable, energetic and enthusiastic in the most friendly way (my daughters described him as “good vibes”). Tony taught us the cultural and ecological history of our hike and the shinto shrines, along with fun things such as how to read Japanese directional signs. We picked him solely based on over 500, 5 star reviews, and the reviews were right! The hike itself is beginner level, but bring good shoes (gym shoes work unless it is raining). My daughter didn’t bring good shoes, and Tony showed her how to place her foot to turn the stones into support instead of hazards, saving our hike. Highly recommended as a day trip from Tokyo. After five days of eating, shopping and site seeing in Tokyo, my 21-27 year old children said this was the best thing they did so far.
We had an amazing time, day trip from Tokyo, highlighted by Mount Fuji view and learning so much about the history of Japan
Tony was an awesome guide and we highly recommend this excursion in Hakone. He was very knowledgeable and we learned so much. The tour was the perfect amount of time and interesting to four teenage boys as well. It was a very authentic Japanese experience, especially visiting the tea house and Tony was very personable.
Awesome hike with Tony as our guide. Very challenging but experience was unforgettable. Tony was such fun to be with to talk the history and culture of the trail from Tokyo to Kyoto and our 15km section out from Hakone was breathtaking. So if you like a challenge, this is the tour for you , though i am told there were easier options with Tony also. 💗🩷🌸cheers, Liz
We had a great day exploring the historic path from Hakone. Tony was an excellent guide. He told so many interesting stories about the history of the road. We are now all inspired and plan to rewatch shogun to relive the history. Thanks Tony!
An amazing hike and beautiful part of Japan! Tony’s personalised and local experience (a fluent Japanese translation) made the experience with 13th generation tea house owner Yamamoto felt very special. Tony was very considerate of the whole family’s capabilities and the 12km hike went very smoothly even in cold, wintry, windy but dry conditions. The trees and bamboo along the old Tokaido certainly lived up to its reputation of providing shelter to travelers. A wonderful experience to end our trip to Japan and would highly recommend Tony and his small group tour to anyone who wants to get out in the open and away from the crowds! 5⭐️++!! Thanks again for sharing this small part of Japan with us!
