The hot spring inn brand “Kai” is based on the theme of “It’s a royal road, but it’s new.” I have made a suggestion.
At the hot spring inns “Kai Hakone” and “Kai Sengokuhara” in the Hakone area, we are planning a “superb view open bus tour” overlooking Mt. Fuji and Lake Ashi from May 15th to June 5th, 2022.
The biggest attraction of the open bus without a roof is the 360-degree view. While feeling the early summer breeze, you can see Mt. Fuji and Lake Ashi appearing in front of you, and enjoy the power and exhilaration that can only be experienced by an open bus.
In this tour, we will stop at “Mikuni Pass” located in the middle of “Ashinoko Sky Line”. It is a view point that can only be accessed from the “Ashinoko Skyline”, and the staff is also recommended for the view of the magnificent Mt. Fuji that extends to the base. There is time to get off the bus, and you can enjoy taking a commemorative photo.
The tour uses an open-air bus, but in addition to that, in order to maintain social distance, about 30% of the seats (48 seats in total) are vacant, and seats are seated at intervals. increase. In addition, the following “hygiene management” measures will be taken.
・ Wearing masks for drivers and guide staff
・ Install alcohol at the boarding gate
・ Disinfection of handrails, seat belts, and seats in cars
