Absolutely incredible tour! Arakurayama Sengen Park was breathtaking, with the pagoda framed against Mount Fuji. Lunch at Kawaguchi with the lake and mountain views was serene. Soaking in the hot springs at Yamanaka while gazing at Fuji was the perfect zen ending.
Mount Fuji up close, lake views, and a relaxing onsen—perfect day trip!
Loved the mix: viewpoint, lake vibes, and chilled hot spring finish.
This was hands down one of the best day trips from Tokyo. Visiting the Fuji 5th Station offered an unmatched perspective of the mountain; seeing the sea of clouds was magical. The onsen at Lake Yamanaka was a soothing finale—with Fuji in the background, what more could you ask?
The 5th Station view blew me away. Onsen was pure bliss
The blend of culture, nature, and relaxation in one day was amazing. Loved the panoramic views, lakeside stops, and especially the quiet soak at Yamanaka Onsen. Worth every yen!
Well-paced and scenic! We captured beautiful pictures from the pagoda, enjoyed peaceful lakeside time, and had an amazing hot spring experience. Highly recommend for anyone looking to see different sides of Fuji.
Perfectly balanced itinerary—scenic, cultural, relaxing. The hike up to Arakurayama Sengen Park’s pagoda was worth every step for that photo finish. Highway drive was smooth, and the guide was great. I’d do it again in a heartbeat!
Pagoda + Fuji = postcard perfect. Onsen was a dream ending!
Loved every part of this tour! Seasonal highlights like autumn leaves framing Mount Fuji, or winter’s snowy backdrop—each view was like a painting. The optional hot spring soaked my sightseeing fatigue away. Very well-organized
Fantastic day tour! Mount Fuji looked majestic from the 5th Station (or Arakurayama depending on season), and soaking in a hot spring was such a unique experience. Smooth trip from start to finish.
A visual feast and a relaxation retreat rolled into one day. The 5th Station felt surreal, like brushing against the sky. Kawaguchi’s lakefront was tranquil, and the Yamanaka onsen capped it off beautifully. Fantastic service and timing throughout.
Great choice if you want to experience both breathtaking views and some chill time. The pagoda view was stunning, Kawaguchi’s scenery calming, and the onsen soak at Yamanaka was a nice treat.
李静是个好同志
