Full Description

Escape the hustle and bustle of Tokyo on this full-day countryside tour, featuring some of the region’s most iconic destinations.

Start your adventure with a scenic cruise on Lake Ashi in Hakone aboard a traditional-style pirate ship. The 25-minute ride offers stunning views of Mt. Fuji (weather permitting) and the surrounding mountains. Capture memorable photos and enjoy the crisp, fresh air.

Next, take part in a ramen-making experience at the Ramen Factory Mt. Fuji. You’ll start from scratch, kneading and cutting your own noodles, then personalize your bowl with a choice of broth, seasonings, and toppings. After the hands-on workshop, enjoy your delicious creation for lunch.

Continue on to the Arakura Fuji Sengen Shrine, founded over 1,500 years ago. Climb the 398 steps or follow a sloping path to reach the Chureito Pagoda, one of the most photographed spots in Japan, offering a sweeping view of Mt. Fuji rising behind a traditional five-story pagoda.

End your day in Oshino Hakkai, a peaceful village in Yamanashi Prefecture. Explore markets filled with local crafts, fresh produce, wine, and handmade souvenirs. Visit the eight natural spring-fed ponds, formed by snowmelt from Mt. Fuji filtered through volcanic rock over decades.

After a full day of sightseeing and cultural immersion, return to Shinjuku by coach.
