See the iconic Mt. Fuji from the riverbanks of Lake Kawaguchi on this day trip from Tokyo! We'll also visit the Chureito Pagoda making it a day full of wonder
Mount Fuji and Lake Kawaguchi Day Trip
Ready to be captivated by the wonders of Japan? After meeting up at the West Exit of Shinjuku Station, we'll leave Tokyo behind and set off by bus to the beautiful flower-filled green space on the shores of Lake Kawaguchi.
Once we arrive, we'll take a short walk to one of the best lookout points that offers the best views of Mt. Fuji. On top of having one of the most privileged views of the famed mountain, we'll also enjoy a boat ride over Lake Kawaguchi.
Afterward, we'll leave you some free time to enjoy the natural area at your own pace as you take a cable car ride up to the mountain peak! Then, back together we'll return to the city for a well-deserved meal featuring traditional Japanese cuisine.
With newfound energy, we'll turn our sights toward the Chureito Pagoda. This iconic 5-story red temple has become the quintessential picture-perfect symbol of the country.
Finally, we'll return to the meeting point 8 hours later, bringing our exciting day to an end.
