Lake Kawaguchi is known as the shining pearl of the five lakes of Fuji, its intricate shoreline offers numerous vantage points to admire the majestic Mt. Fuji. Ten thousand years ago, a spectacular eruption of Mount Fuji created this stunning picture of lake and mountain. In 2013, Lake Kawaguchi was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site as part of the Fujisan Cultural Site. Stroll along its shores with Mt. Fuji in the background, a serene and awe-inspiring atmosphere, and enjoy the beautiful reflection of Mt. Fuji in the clear water.
Oishi Park, nature's palette, is famous for its vibrant seasonal flower displays. On the west side of the park, the "350-meter-long Flowers Road" features a colorful array of blooms throughout the year. From cherry blossoms in spring to lavender in summer, and from vibrant autumn leaves to the soft snow and reeds of winter, the seasons change, and the scenery is breathtaking. You can capture beautiful photos with Lake Kawaguchi, seasonal flowers, and the majestic Mt. Fuji in the background.
On the second floor of the Kawaguchiko Natural Living Center, you will find a unique perspective where you can easily capture the magnificent picture of the red torii blending with Mount Fuji.
Instagram-famous spot near Mount Fuji, capture the unique beauty of Mt. Fuji. The modern blue facade of the convenience store creates a striking contrast with Mount Fuji. After snapping your photos, you can enjoy ice cream, beverages, or local snacks in the store.
Oshino Hakkai is a World Heritage Site known for its eight clear springs, which are formed by the snowmelt from Mt. Fuji. It is recognized as one of the "100 Famous Waters of Japan." Taste the magical spring water for free, feel its sweetness and purity, and experience the legend of longevity. Take a stroll through the village, enjoy stunning views of Mount Fuji, and get a glimpse of traditional rural life in Japan. Taste traditional Japanese food and desserts, such as udon, soba noodles, kusamochi, and kushidango.
Famous park in Fujiyoshida City, Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan. It's known as one of the 21 places that photographers from all over the world must visit in their lifetime. The Chureito Pagoda is a five-storied pagoda on the mountainside overlooking Fujiyoshida City and Mount Fuji. To reach the pagoda, visitors must climb nearly 400 steps, but the panoramic view from the top is considered one of the best in Japan.
Built in 705 and has a history of more than 1,300 years. It is a holy place to pray for well-being and family happiness. In 807, Mount Fuji erupted on a large scale, and society fell into panic. The shrine held a grand Mount Fuji Fire Control Ceremony, praying for peace and prosperity for the nation and for Mount Fuji to return to a state of tranquility.
At Shimoyoshida Honcho Street, the Hikawa Clock Shop, escape the urban hustle and bustle to reach the "Stairway to Mt. Fuji," a serene path leading to the iconic mountain.

We had an amazing time traveling with our tour guide Sandy for our Mount Fuji trip. We made about 5 stops and he was very friendly and excited to make our trip a very special and memorable one. He recommended many specific places that we could take iconic photos in front of Mt. Fuji and while we originally thought the trip would mean we would climb the mountain, the locations we stopped at gave us a pretty nice view of the mountain along with plenty of flora. If you can climb the 400-step trail to the Pagoda, it’s worth the 256 calories you’ll burn to get the great shot from above with Mt. Fuji. Plan accordingly for each stop since everything is timed in a group trip mostly 30 minutes to an hour. To get to our meeting location when we start the morning trip, plan for at LEAST an hour to account for foot traffic (we met in Shinjuku in front of Tokyo Mode Gakuen early at 8:15AM. Highly recommend you arrive to the location no later than 8am because there are other tour operators and it can get confusing especially with so many people. But Sandy arrived at the meeting time and went out of his way to make sure even the late folx made it on the bus. Loved the eel and rice lunch! That was the first time I tried eel and the Udon soup was delicious. Sandy will take your orders for lunch and payment for it during the bus trip and there are vegan options as well. Filled up space for photos and videos on my phone but so glad I brought my camera with a new SD card-there are sooooo many different and beautiful photos you can take on this tour, so enjoy it! 😁🫰🏽
So pleased to have had the opportunity to experience mt Fuji on a clear day. Awesome trip and very well organised
All the sites visited were beautiful and worth seeing. The guide was helpful and really friendly. There are tons of lunch options at Oshino Hakkai, where you will go after the lunch spot, and they are better than the lunch the tour guide will offer you (they take everyone to the same restaurant probably because they get a commission)
Sandy was a fantastic guide, and the tour brought us to all the spots we wanted to see around Mount Fuji! We had a constant view of the mountain, and had a very fun day.
Our guide Keiko and driver Lee did a great job for being really nice and helpful for taking us to visit Mt. Fuji. We were so lucky to see the Mt. Fuji all day in varied spots and took nice photos. This is a wonderful experience for us. Thanks!
Would highly recommend to solo travellers, you have a friendly guide Keiko, some great scenic views and historical info. Great if you have accommodation around Tokyo.
A brilliant day when Mt Fuji came out to play all day !! Wonderful views all day ! The stops were all great and timed perfectly. Didn’t feel rushed at all. Keiko our guide was great. She made sure we were all on time for every stop ( I hate it when people are late back to the bus but that wasn’t going to happen with Keiko ! ) I didn’t do the lunch option but I’m told it was good and well worth the money ( I just wasn’t hungry ) Smooth journey all the way great commentary from our super guide ! If you want an all round Fuji day this is the one to do !
Our tour guide, Zoe, was very nice. She told of the history of the Lakes of Mt. Fuji, and provided insight to the Japanese Culture. In addition, we had an excellent bus driver that made the ride very smooth. Recommend this tour!
Nice tour, recommend to go if you are in Tokyo. Guid Omar is good, very helpful and positive. Tour takes around 8-9 hours.
