We got a 2 day Hakone Free Pass here from Klook.  The Free Pass includes the train trip to Odawara, Tozan Train, Ropeway, Cable Car, Ropeway, Cruise ship, and buses.  To redeem this pass for a physical ticket, head to Odakyu Sightseeing Service Center at Shinjuku station.  There are signboards to lead you to Odakyu Sightseeing Station.  The staff were fluent in English. They gave us 2 physical Hakone free passes easily redeemed from the Klook app.  From Shinjuku station, the free pass allows you to enter the train station to take the Odakyu Line from Tokyo to Odawara. However, we didn't know this so we bought two additional one-way tickets to Odawara. You have to show the pass to the station master. Alternatively, you can take the Romance-car. We started our trip around 9-10am.  Map from https://www.hakonenavi.jp/international/en/around  At Odawara station, take the Hakone-Yumoto line to Hakone-Yumoto station.   Hakone-Yumoto line A map on the train  From  Hakone-Yumoto station, t

If you are looking for a short getaway from Singapore, you can check out Anmon Resorts in Bintan, Indonesia. I chose Anmon Resorts because I wanted to try out glamping! I booked my stay via Klook and my ferry ride from Bintan to Singapore via Grab Ferry. Transport (Bintan Ferry Tickets on Grab) We took the 1110H Bintan Resorts Ferries from Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal to Bandar Bentan Telani and a 1435H Ferry on the way back to Singapore. It took an hour to reach Bintan but do note that the Indonesian time is one hour earlier than Singapore so you will reach at 1110H Indonesian time.  A complimentary shuttle bus from Anmon can be arranged to fetch you from the terminal by emailing your ticket to iwanttostay@theanmon.com. Once you have reached, look for the signboard that says Anmon and there will be a person in charge to check for your name and reservation. The shuttle bus (1250H) can also send you back to the terminal.  complimentary shuttle bus free buggy rides around the resort  our
