The route includes stops at places such as Oishi Park, Arakurayama Sengen Park, Oshino Hakkai and the 5th Station of Mount Fuji, situated at an altitude of around 2,300 metres. Amidst lakes, pagodas, spring-fed ponds and mountain views, the scenery changes constantly throughout the tour.
You can choose the departure point in Tokyo that suits you best – from Tokyo Station or Shinjuku – depending on the type of tour you’ve booked.

Step by Step
The tour begins in Tokyo and heads for the Mount Fuji region by air-conditioned coach. As you leave the city behind, the landscape changes, giving way to lakes, mountains and small villages surrounded by nature.
One of the first stops is Oishi Park, on the shores of Lake Kawaguchi. From here, you can enjoy one of the area’s most recognisable views, with the lake in the foreground and Mount Fuji rising in the background.
The tour continues to Arakurayama Sengen, a park situated on the slopes of Mount Arakura. Its five-storey pagoda, combined with the views of Mount Fuji and the cherry blossoms in spring, creates one of the most photographed panoramas in Japan.
Next, you’ll visit Oshino Hakkai, a small group of eight ponds fed by water filtered through the volcanic layers of Mount Fuji. The area retains a traditional atmosphere, with houses, small bridges and views of the surrounding mountains.
The day concludes at the 5th Station of Mount Fuji, at around 2,300 metres above sea level. From here, you’ll have a much closer view of the mountain and will find shops and places to buy some food before returning to Tokyo.
