After a bit of easy street riding to get used to your motorcycle, you will be leaving Tokyo on a brief stretch of highway. First-timer to Japan, and can't read any Japanese traffic signs? No worries! We set up your navigation unit with a special set of waypoints that guide you out of the city in the easiest to understand way, using the least crowded roads.

Ride out out along the Tomei Expressway, and stop for a quick coffee at Ebina Service area before continuing along to the Mazda Turnpike entrance at Odawara and up to Hakone and Lake Ashinoko for a brief stop and some photos.

Leaving Hakone you will ride along the Ashinoko Skyline which winds along the mountain tops giving great views of Mt. Fuji, Lake Ashinoko and Hakone. Following the Skyline to Gotemba and on along northern slopes of Mt. Fuji and Lake Yamanaka. Time permitting ride up the Fuji Subaru line to the highest accessible viewing spots for some great photos before continuing on your hotel in Fuji Lakes area.

Total distance is approx. 250km and it will take about 4.5-5 hrs of riding.

Hida Takayama to Matsumoto
Day 3
Japan motorcycle tour ninjatours takayama matsumoto castle moat and structures
The ride is not long today and as there is a lot of interesting sightseeing in Takayama so a slow start to the day works fine. Leaving Takayama the route takes you on a winding and very scenic course though some small villages on some great roads.

If the weather is nice we highly recommend a stop at the Shin Hotaka ropeway which will take you high in the Alps for some memorable scenery, its a short diversion from your course. Continue down past the famous Kami Kochi national park and on to Matsumoto. Stop and take a look at Matsumoto Castle and then on to your hotel which is about a 15 minute ride from the Castle.

Total Distance today is about 160km and it will take about 3 hours riding time, but with every thing to see it will probably take all day.
