Spend a full day exploring Mt. Fuji and the Kawaguchiko area on this guided day trip from Tokyo — from the spring-fed village of Oshino Hakkai to the Fujisan World Heritage Center, with an optional sightseeing cruise on Lake Kawaguchi along the way.
To enhance your experience, we provide a real-time translator supporting 75+ languages, letting you follow your guide's explanations in your preferred language throughout the tour. Just bring your own smartphone and earphones.
Your day starts with a morning departure from Tokyo, heading toward Oshino Hakkai — a traditional village known for its crystal-clear spring ponds, fed by Mt. Fuji's own snowmelt. Wander the thatched-roof streets, browse local shops, sample traditional snacks, and photograph Mt. Fuji framed by the village itself.
Around lunchtime, guests on the buffet or café option are dropped off at Fuji-Q Highland for lunch. Vegan or Halal plan guests will head to Kawaguchiko Station instead, where staff will meet and walk you to the restaurants.
Next is Lake Kawaguchi, one of the Fuji Five Lakes, where you'll have free time to explore at your own pace. It's worth a stop at the nearby Lawson convenience store — its lakeside view of Mt. Fuji has made it one of the most photographed convenience stores in Japan — and don't miss trying the local soft-serve ice cream, a favorite among visitors to the area. Depending on your plan this is also where you'll board your included sightseeing cruise, setting sail from Appare Pier and passing under the Kawaguchiko Ohashi Bridge and by Unoshima, the only island among the Fuji Five Lakes.
Your final stop is the Fujisan World Heritage Center where interactive exhibits bring to life the cultural and natural significance of Japan's most iconic mountain — recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. It's a fitting, reflective close to the day.
Then sit back and enjoy a comfortable return to Tokyo.
