hakone help

Hi

Are taxis easily available to move around WITHIN Hakone? Can they be flagged off the street or are they available only at specific locations/stands?

Rgds

You mean to move around the whole area?

Its very large and will cost you a fortune ;-)But its possible.You will find taxis outside the larger train stations,like Odawara and Hakone Yumoto.

Thanks Lucapal. Let me be more sepcific. Will i get a taxi at the following places

1. At my hotel (Hakone Sengokuhara Prince)
2. At Togendai ko to come back to the hotel
3. At Gotemba Premium Outlets in Fukasawa

Thanks

At the hotel,sure.They will call one for you.

The other two places.....I don't travel around by taxi.But there will be some at Togendai station for sure.No idea on the shopping place;I haven't been there.

There are plenty of taxis in the area. Most taxis are concentrated around the Hakone Yumoto area, but the bus system is incredibly reliable and convenient. Hotels can call a taxi for you. Make sure you get the economic and easy to use Hakone Freepass as well. Lots of info on their site. www.hakone-japan.com
