  Day 3 Tour Tokyo Old & New – Atami Hot Springs

  Experience the contrasts of Tokyo as you travel south on the Tokyo Bay Aqua Line, an ultra modern bridge and tunnel stretching 10 miles across Tokyo Bay, to the ancient neighborhood of Kamakura. Here you’ll see the 11th century Tsurugaoka Shrine and the imposing, 40 foot Daibutsu (large Buddha). Stroll down the cherry blossom-lined streets of Komachi Dori and pick up some great local souvenirs in the shops along charming Wakamiya Street. Nearby, explore the scenic Odawara Castle, built nearly 600 years ago as a fortress, and take time to enjoy its exhibits and scenic views over the coastline.
  
  From here, it’s a short drive to the seaside town of Atami, famous for its hot springs perched along the ocean (the name Atami means “hot ocean”). Check into your ocean view room early with ample time to enjoy the amazing hot spring baths. Slip into your Yukata (summer kimono) and enjoy a delicious Kaiseki, a traditional Japanese feast. Later, do as the locals do and enjoy an evening of Karaoke.
