Full Description

Your full-day adventure begins with pickup from one of three central locations in Tokyo. Hop aboard a comfortable, air-conditioned coach equipped with Wi-Fi as you make your way to Mt. Fuji’s 5th Station — perched 2,000 meters above sea level. Breathe in the crisp mountain air and visit the peaceful Shinto shrine nestled in this spiritual setting.

If weather conditions prevent access to the 5th Station, the tour will instead take you to an alternative scenic spot such as Oshino Hakkai, a charming village of natural spring-fed ponds at the base of Mt. Fuji.

Next, enjoy a buffet lunch at a local restaurant with a view of Mt. Fuji. The meal features a range of seasonal Japanese dishes with vegetarian and Muslim-friendly options available upon request.

After lunch, head toward Hakone, a region famed for its natural beauty. Depending on the day’s schedule, you’ll ride the Hakone Ropeway or the Komagatake Ropeway, offering incredible views of the surrounding mountains, hot springs, and — on clear days — Mt. Fuji itself.

The adventure continues with a scenic cruise across Lake Ashi, a caldera lake formed by volcanic activity. Surrounded by mountains and often veiled in mist, the lake offers a peaceful counterpoint to the dramatic landscapes above.

Your final thrill of the day comes aboard the Shinkansen bullet train. Departing from Odawara Station, you’ll speed back to Tokyo Station in just 30–40 minutes — the perfect way to end your day of exploration.
