Hi Calvin,

Sounds like a fun day out! I am not 100% sure, but I think the Lake Ashi cruises take you to Hakone-machi or Moto-Hakone, where you can hop onto a Hakone Tozan bus back to Hakone-Yumoto or Odawara - and then take the train back to Tokyo.

Again, I am not sure - so please double check - but I think that you could also take the Hakone Tozan bus from Togendai Station back to Hakone-Yumoto or Odawara.

Hope that helps! :slight_smile:
