【DETAILS】

This is a half-day, private tour to enjoy the charms of Hinode-cho, a tranquil suburb outside of Tokyo.

For transportation, we willl use a private car, providing transfer services to Hinode town from Shinjuku Station and back, so there will be no stress regarding luggage and train transfers. 

The hustle and bustle of metropolitan Tokyo, with its brightly colored electronic screens and lively atmosphere, is a sight to behold in its own right. But it's also great to take a step back from the excitement and experience the traditional, more hidden parts of Japanese culture. Going to Hinode town is said to be like time-traveling because of the stark contrast between its classical, calming atmosphere and the modern, vibrant atmosphere of Tokyo, which is just about an hour away from Hinode town. You will train like a ninja in a samurai residence over 100 years old and experience Japanese papermaking using local, natural materials.
