Day Trip Details
At the designated time, meet your guide at the Shinjuku LOVE Object in Tokyo. Leaving Tokyo behind, you'll be taken into the Japanese countryside in the direction of the viewpoint at the Fifth Station of Mount Fuji, where you'll arrive after a 2-hour drive.
You'll have 30 minutes at this unparalleled viewpoint to enjoy the extraordinary views of Mount Fuji, before heading to a restaurant close by to indulge in a delicious Japanese-style lunch. The menu will consist of udon noodle soup, a seafood salad, lemon chicken, fried egg with sauce and gobo, konjac, and nori seaweed rice. The menu can also be adapted for vegetarians or vegans.
After lunch, we'll take the Hakone Ropeway, a cable car that connects Togendai station on the lakeshore with Owakudani, the perfect region to learn about Japan's volcanic activity. From the top, you'll take in spectacular scenic views! After admiring the views, you'll enjoy a 30-minute pirate ship cruise on Lake Ashi. A unique way to see the beautiful surrounding landscapes!
Finally, we'll board a bus to transfer to Hakone Yumoto or Odawara train stations, where the day trip will end if you choose to stay there. If you have your Japan Rail Pass, you can use it to return to Tokyo or travel elsewhere.
If you do not have the Japan Rail Pass and want to return to Tokyo, we'll give you the tickets so you can return to the Central Station of the Japanese capital on the Shinkansen bullet train, arriving between 10 and 11 hours after the start of the tour. In this case, you’ll need to select the option that includes the bullet train.
