A great cruise with interesting port calls. I only did the Bousan tour and it was good. The rest of the time I went off ship by myself and enjoyed the independence.
The port bus transfers were expensive.
The staff, service and dinning options on board were excellent .
As always, I consider it wasn't good value for money as I am a solo traveler and whatever cruise line I go on solos pay extra for the package.

Attractions and activities are dependent on weather conditions; bad weather may cause closures, itinerary changes, and cancellations – even while en route
Order of tour content subject to change depending on traffic conditions (i.e. bullet train journey may be first instead of last)
Group Travel Requirements
All guests must travel with the tour group through each itinerary item for the duration of the tour
In addition to this, due to the distance travelled and destinations visited on the Hakone Ropeway, it will be difficult for any individuals to skip the sky gondola on the tour. You will also not be allowed to stay on the bus/coach provided at any point.
Wheelchair Accessibility
A qualified carer / attendant must be present together with the wheelchair user and take care of everything; tour guides and drivers are not qualified to offer assistance
Any wheelchairs must be foldable to be loaded onto the bus/coach provided; motorised wheelchairs and scooters are not supported or allowed
Wheelchair users must be able to embark and disembark the bus/coach provided without assistance; restaurant visits are also on the first floor, so must be able to go up and down stairs
Wheelchair users and their companions will need to be able to maintain the pace of the group throughout the tour in order to keep to the tight schedule and avoid missing any experiences highlighted in the itinerary
It’s also worth noting that even if you agree to the above conditions when booking a cruise with this tour package, local tour operators may refuse your participation on the day if it’s judged that your situation is not suitable for the attractions and activities on the tour.

If you choose to travel to Japan, it’s recommended that you research your destinations and ensure you get appropriate travel insurance for the itinerary outlined, planned activities, and any medical expenses you may require in an emergency.
Money
Credit cards are widely accepted in Japan, particularly in larger cities and metropolitan areas. However, there are some areas where credit cards are not as widely accepted – for example, in some smaller shops, in rural areas, and at some tourist attractions. Therefore, it’s advisable to be prepared beforehand with some cash. Post Offices, convenience stores (i.e. 7-Eleven stores), and JP Post Banks are the main places where you’ll find cash machines that accept some foreign credit cards during business hours.
Medicine
It’s illegal to possess or use some common prescription and over-the-counter medicines under Japan’s anti-stimulant laws. With ignorance of the law not a viable defence, you should check the medication bans prior to booking if you’re on medication.
