Guests may request seasonal rafting in advance; when selected, it replaces part of the standard route and is operated by a third-party activity provider. Rafting fees are not included unless specifically confirmed.
Contact us at least 24 hours before departure to confirm your preferred pace and activities. Weather, river conditions, trail conditions, water levels, traffic, and participant fitness may require route changes.
6- and 9-guest options include an English-speaking driver-guide who is not a licensed guide; the 13-guest option is driver only with no English guarantee.
Pickup and drop-off are included from hotels or accessible addresses within the selected Tokyo city service area. Please provide your exact hotel/address, requested pickup time, passenger count, luggage quantity and size, reachable phone/WhatsApp number, fitness or mobility concerns, and any rafting or route requests at least 24 hours before departure.
Free waiting time is 30 minutes from the confirmed pickup time. Service beyond the booked 10 hours is charged at JPY 5,000 per hour for vehicles up to 14 seats. Service between 22:00 and 07:00 incurs an additional JPY 2,000 night-service fee.
Mountain roads, limited parking, trail access, weather, and river conditions may require meeting or stopping at the nearest safe and legal location. Multiple pickup/drop-off points or locations outside the included Tokyo service area require advance confirmation and may incur an additional charge.
If rafting is requested, please provide participant ages and any relevant health or mobility information required by the activity operator. Final participation is subject to the operator’s safety rules.
Slow down beside the Tama River on an easy nature walk through Mitake Valley. Follow riverside paths surrounded by forest, listen to flowing water, take time for photographs, and enjoy a relaxed forest-bathing-style experience away from central Tokyo. The walk is designed as a light outdoor experience rather than a technical hike. Your English-speaking driver-guide can assist with route orientation, pacing, simple local information, and basic support, but is not a certified hiking or forest-therapy guide.
Enjoy panoramic mountain and reservoir views at Lake Okutama, one of western Tokyo’s best-known natural escapes. Stop at selected viewpoints for photographs, a short walk, and a quieter moment beside the water before continuing to the floating bridge area.
Walk across the distinctive Mugiyama Floating Bridge when it is open and safe to use. Enjoy the unusual sensation of crossing Lake Okutama just above the water while taking in the surrounding mountain scenery. The floating bridge may close due to low water levels, weather, safety conditions, or maintenance. If unavailable, another lake viewpoint or nature stop will be used instead.
