Will not recommend booking on this site..Although they cancelled 2 days before it’s not enough time as we are already on the start of our trip. Instead of enjoying our vacation . I was left worrying about if I could booked another activity on a different site
Stunning Views of Mount Fuji: Oishi Park is renowned for its unobstructed, panoramic views of Mount Fuji. Whether you're strolling through the park, walking along the lake, or enjoying a boat ride, the iconic mountain serves as a breathtaking backdrop. This makes it a prime spot for photography, particularly in the early morning when the lake is calm, offering perfect reflections of Mount Fuji. Seasonal Beauty: The park is a haven for nature lovers throughout the year: Spring brings vibrant cherry blossoms and tulips. Summer offers blooming lavender fields. Autumn turns the park into a canvas of red and orange leaves. Even in winter, with the snow-capped Mount Fuji in the distance, it offers a quiet, beautiful landscape. Well-Maintained and Relaxing: The park is meticulously cared for, making it a peaceful and relaxing place to walk around. The gardens and paths are accessible, and there’s a sense of tranquility that makes it an excellent spot for unwinding. Variety of Activities: Lake Kawaguchi offers boat rentals and pedal boats for those wanting to get out on the water. The Kawaguchiko Music Forest Museum, nearby, offers an intriguing collection of music boxes, and the Itchiku Kubota Art Museum provides a cultural experience if you're interested in local art.
A peaceful day trip to Oishi Park by Lake Kawaguchi with stunning Mt. Fuji views. Fruit picking was fun, especially strawberries in spring. The park's lavender fields are beautiful in summer. Transportation from Tokyo was smooth, but the orchard can be crowded on weekends. Pro tip: Go early to avoid crowds and enjoy the best fruit! Great for families or nature lovers.
My friends and I planned our Tokyo trip one year ago. We have been to Tokyo several times and we want to experience the Fruit Picking because we have not done that before. Four days before the tour, I got a message from the tour operator that the tour is not available on October 18 and asked if the tour could be moved to October 17 instead. I replied that we will arrive on the afternoon of Oct 17 so there is no way to move the tour on that day. I attached in the email our itinerary so they will see how hectic our 4-day trip is. The tour operator offered an alternative itinerary for October 18 and said they will give partial refund, so I accepted. The itinerary: Mt. Fuji 5th Station, Oshino Hakkai and Gotemba Premium Outlets. On the day of the tour, the guide, ANDY SHI fetched us in our hotel and told us the emailed itinerary is incorrect. He brought us to: Matcha Making, Oishi Park, Ropeway Ride and Oshino Hakkai. When we complained about the unfollowed itinerary, he appeased us by buying us grapes. ANDY SHI is an unusual tour guide because he did not say much. We did not learn any information from him because he kept silent in the duration of the tour. I have been booking tours in Viator for several years now and it is my first time to have a tour guide that does not speak. I could not believe there is a tour agency that is so inefficient in Japan. All our experiences in Japan are positive, except this one.
