Nikko Day Trip

This tour from Tokyo to Nikko includes iconic landmarks such as the Toshogu Temple, Kegon Waterfall, and Lake Chuzenji.

Tour Details

At the scheduled time, we’ll meet you at a central spot in Tokyo and leave for Nikko. A bus ride of approximately 2.5 hours will lead us to our first destination, the Toshogu Temple, after crossing the sacred Shinkyo Bridge. This Shinto shrine contains the tomb of the first shogun of the Tokugawa clan, which we will discuss in relation to Japanese culture.

We will share information about the unique animal motifs seen in the decorations, including monkeys, cats, and dragons. Our next stop will be the impressive Kegon Waterfall, followed by an hour of free time for lunch, allowing you to try authentic Japanese cuisine. After lunch, we’ll visit Lake Chuzenji, known for its beautiful views.

This enriching 11-hour tour concludes with our return to Tokyo, arriving back at the meeting point.
