What's included in Tokyo: Instagram-Worthy Mt Fuji & Lake Kawaguchiko Day Trip
(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Arakurayama Sengen Park
Arakurayama Sengen Park, home to the iconic Chureito Pagoda, offers one of Japan’s most picturesque views, especially during the cherry blossom season in mid-April and the vibrant autumn foliage in November. Accessible via a short hike up 398 steps, the park provides a stunning panoramic view of Mt. Fuji and the cityscape below.
Important Update: Due to 2025 cherry blossom season traffic regulations (Apr 1-18), we'll skip the Hikawa Clock Shop to maximize your time at Arakurayama Park. The extended walk from parking makes this adjustment necessary. Next, you’ll visit the Shimoyoshida Tokei-ten Shop, a hidden gem at the foot of Mount Fuji. Here, you’ll discover the “Stairway to Heaven Town”, a quiet street that resembles a stairway to the sky, leading to the end of the road where you’ll find the elusive Mount Fuji. It’s a place where you can get incredibly close to the mountain, yet it seems just out of reach. You’ll capture the essence of Japanese streetscape and witness the seamless fusion of Mount Fuji with the street – a unique and picturesque experience. This spot is perfect for photography enthusiasts.
Oshino Hakkai
After that, you’ll head to Oshino Hakkai, a natural monument that consists of eight clear springs formed by the snowmelt from Mount Fuji. You’ll marvel at the crystal-clear water that reflects the majestic mountain, and enjoy the tranquil atmosphere of the village. You’ll also have a chance to taste the sweet spring water and sample some local delicacies, such as soba noodles, grilled fish, and pickles.
