Japan Excursions
Mount Fuji and Hakone One-Day Tour
This excursion takes guests to the most iconic image of Japan and some of Japan’s most stunning countryside. A 120-minute coach ride from the Hamamatsucho Bus Terminal takes us westwards from bayside Tokyo through stunning mountainous alpine scenery to the famous Mount Fuji. The first stop at the Fuji Visitor Centre provides vital background information ahead of the visit to the actual mountain. The 3776-metre peak is divided into ten stations, with the first station at the foot of the mountain and the tenth station at the summit. Paved roads go as far as the fifth station halfway up the mountain and we drive to this station to get a breathtaking view from 2,300 metres above sea level. After a delicious Japanese-style lunch, we continue onto Lake Ashi, a crater lake that is famous for its views of Mount Fuji and its numerous hot springs. We then take a cruise aboard a large sightseeing boat modelled after a pirate ship. The adventure continues with a ride on the Mount Komagatake Ropeway, to get an elevated view of beautiful Hakone National Park. We then return to Tokyo with an expected 8.30pm arrival time in the Ginza district.
