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.
