Activity

Board a helicopter and admire the spectacular views from above

Travel between Tokyo and the Nikko area by helicopter.
While reducing travel time with traffic-free air travel, you can enjoy the spectacular views from the sky on a larger scale, such as the Irohazaka Slope, which is sure to be crowded with visitors who come to see its famous autumn foliage.
During the autumn foliage season, you can see the bright red mountains below.
[Peak autumn foliage season] Nikko: mid-October - early November

A special day trip only possible by helicopter

This tour not only allows you to tour the area around Nikko by helicopter, but also allows you to enjoy sightseeing when you land.
By using a helicopter for round-trip travel, you can shorten the travel time and enjoy sightseeing in the Nikko and Lake Kawaguchi areas from Tokyo, even on a short trip.
(It takes 2 and a half to 3 hours one way from Tokyo by car or train, but it takes about 50 minutes one way by helicopter)

Experience Zazen meditation at Rinnoji Temple, a World Heritage site & take a private tour in areas not open to the public

At Rinnoji Temple, a World Heritage site and the heart of Nikko's history, you can attend a lecture by a monk and experience Zazen meditation.
Zazen at Rinnoji Temple is a special experience limited to guests on this tour, as it is not usually open to individual guests.

Take a private tour of areas not open to the public

On the private tour, a temple staff member familiar with the temple's history will guide you through stories about its origins, such as the story of the shogun and the Tokugawa family.
At the end of the tour, you will be given a special showing of a hanging scroll that is closed to the public and contains the thoughts of the Tokugawa family and the secrets of Japan's temple culture.

An interpreter-guide will accompany you throughout the entire tour

A guide will accompany you and show you the highlights.
