Premium Castle Lord Experience Tour with Shuttle Service to Kinnotake Resorts Become a Lord for a Day at Odawara, the Gateway to Hakone

Experience the unique blend of hot spring relaxation and cultural immersion with a long stay at Ryocance. In addition to the in-house experiences offered by our staff, we present the Odawara Castle Lord Experience, a special program available in Odawara, the gateway to Hakone.

During this premium tour, you will don an exquisitely detailed samurai costume and explore the castle grounds. Ascend the castle tower, participate in a formal ceremony where you will be presented with a certificate as the Lord of the Castle, and, of course, commemorate the occasion with a photo session. This rare opportunity to directly interact with the traditional garments and intricate accessories of the samurai offers an unparalleled insight into Japan's rich cultural heritage.

In the samurai era, Odawara Castle was a critical point for defense and transportation to Edo. By combining the Odawara Castle Lord Experience with your visit to Hakone, you may discover new perspectives on Hakone through its many remaining historic sites, such as the Hakone Checkpoint and the Fukara Water Gate.
