【Mount Fuji Sightseeing Cable Car Experience & Photo Spot Day Tour with Lunch Option】Lawson Convenience Store & Kawaguchiko Matcha Experience & Kawaguchiko Panoramic Ropeway & Oshino Hakkai (Departing from Tokyo)

we had a great tour today with Joe! we got so lucky and saw Mt. Fuji so clearly. the tour was as described, good views from the boat, nice matcha experience, and beautiful views from the lake. Joe was very kind and informative, he also gave lots of helpful recommendations! we would book again, and are grateful we got Joe, he was very fun to have!

We were so lucky to see Fuji-san. Also grateful for the good weather, very smooth trip, best itinerary including our favourite matcha class. To Leo our tour guide & driver, arigatou gozaimasu. We shall come back again!!

We were so lucky to catch a glimpse of Mt. Fuji in the morning. Our tour was very organized thanks to our tour guide, Leo. During lunch, he had already booked our food in advance, so when we arrived at the restaurant, our meals were served right away. Overall, the tour is 100% recommended! (Note: Check Mt. Fuji’s visibility before booking a tour.)

Have a great & memorable experience today! the ropeway, matcha tea ceremony, ice cream at oishii park, oshino hakkai, loves them all.. but unfortunately it was raining, so we can not see mt fuji. hopefully someday i will visit Japan again 😊 thanks to ms Vivie our guide today, great job!

This was a very substantial day trip, offering many different angles to view Mount Fuji. I recommend checking the visibility of Mount Fuji for the upcoming week online (https://see-fujisan.com/) before booking the tour to avoid disappointment. The weather on the day we went was absolutely perfect. The overall itinerary was well-planned and flowed smoothly. The only minor drawback was that the time allotted for each attraction was limited, and with the crowds, we sometimes had to make choices about whether to buy ice cream, souvenirs, take photos, or use the restroom. I recommend this tour for anyone who doesn't want the hassle of planning transportation around Mount Fuji but still wants to catch a glimpse of its true beauty; it's a good option for hitting the main spots. However, I personally prefer a more leisurely pace, so next time I might opt to take a direct bus from Shinjuku to Mount Fuji 🗻. P.S. The matcha experience was shorter than expected, lasting about 10 minutes, and felt more like an add-on shopping stop typical of tour groups.

Tour Date: January 3, 2026 (Saturday) Tour Route: Mt. Fuji H Line | Lake Kawaguchi Ropeway Day Trip Number of Travelers: Family Trip (3 people, including a 10-year-old child) This is our family's first independent trip to Tokyo. To fully appreciate the various scenic spots of Mt. Fuji, we opted out of taking the train and joined this Mt. Fuji bus day trip package (item). We were initially worried about the crowds during the New Year holiday and that our child might get carsick and uncomfortable, affecting the quality and mood. However, after completing the entire itinerary, it was smooth, the scenery was beautiful, and the atmosphere was great. It was truly a "Mt. Fuji in sight, worries gone" experience. 🌟 Tour Guide Olivia (Chen Yi-Wen) — Divine Coordination, Smooth Itinerary We received an email the day before, notifying us of the scheduled itinerary and the tour guide's contact information. However, we couldn't directly add the international account on LINE, and the SIM card we used for internet access couldn't make phone calls. Eventually, we successfully added her as a contact using WhatsApp. On the day of the trip, Olivia was full of energy at the Marunouchi North Exit of Tokyo Station at 7:00 AM. During the New Year holiday, there were many cars and people. Based on her experience, she immediately adjusted the order of the itinerary, successfully avoiding traffic jams, allowing us to have enough time to take photos at each scenic spot. This was a big plus. 🚌 Driver Dong Bao-Chuan — Stable Driving, No Motion Sickness The driving skills of Mr. Dong, the driver of bus number 3657, with 10 years of experience, were very reassuring. Whether it was on the mountain roads or the highway back to Tokyo, he drove smoothly and steadily. Safety is our top priority when traveling with children. On the way back, the whole family was able to sleep soundly all the way "safely back to Tokyo." 🗻 Highlights of Attractions & Food 1. Lake Kawaguchi Ropeway (Mt. Kachikachi): Crowded, but the scenery is unbeatable. Mt. Fuji + Lake Kawaguchi are captured all at once. Every photo looks like a postcard. The grilled mochi with hot tea at the tea house is also very comforting. 2. Lawson convenience store at Lake Kawaguchi (Lawson Kawaguchiko-Ekimae): We captured the classic shot of Mt. Fuji and the convenience store in the same frame. The screen was recently removed, and Olivia enthusiastically helped us take a group photo. 3. We paid for our own lunch of eel rice and Wagyu beef set meals, which were simple but warmed our stomachs. 4. Oshino Hakkai: The water is so clear that you can see fish swimming. We brought a bottle to fill with water at the designated location to take back and drink. Some souvenirs and pickled foods are not available elsewhere. The A-frame thatched roofs, which can effectively withstand heavy snow and also have sericulture and other life functions, are very special. You can see them here as well as in Shirakawa-go. Although it snowed the day before, we were lucky that the weather turned good, and we could see the beautiful scenery of Mt. Fuji and the surrounding snow-covered landscape throughout the trip. The temperature was very low, less than 10 degrees Celsius, but we still bought ice cream three times, eating it while looking at Mt. Fuji. We had a constant stream of delicious food and were happy throughout the trip. The pace of the tour was well-managed, not rushed or tiring at all. We are grateful for Tour Guide Olivia's dedication and Mr. Dong's safe driving. The explanations on the bus were clear and not boring, and she also organized two prize quizzes, which really livened up the atmosphere. Although we didn't answer correctly and missed out on the free ice cream, the child was very engaged, and the travel time was not boring at all. This was the first time I took my family to Mt. Fuji, and this trip was very relaxing!

The one day trip was exciting and fun! It saved the hassle to travel on our own. Our guide, Laner is professional, fluent in Chinese and English, provided clear communication throughout the trip. We wished there is more time for each location but the trip was worthwhile as we are lucky to have the full view of Mt fuji on that day. It was a satisfying trip!

This was an amazing trip which I would highly recommend! Our tour guide, Laner was lovely. she was friendly and knowledgeable. The tour was well organised and there was just the right amount of time at each stop. I would definitely recommend you include the lunch which was a great Japanese dining experience and had beef, chicken and vegetarian options.

Absolutely loved this trip, Kaku and the driver made it so pleasent. Driver was very good and polite. Kaku kept us informed and entertained, he even sang songs for us. Matcha/cable car/lakes all was great. We was so lucky on day that Mt Fuji was out for us the whole day and the snow was on for the first time this year 🤗

This tour was 100% the best experience. we were a group of 8 in my party but overall I believe it was 49 people. We had the Amazing honor to take the tour with Mizki, honestly the nicest and best tour guide I’ve had. We had the chance to see Mt. Fuji clearly, perfect weather. Mizki was able to recommend some items, and the recommended items did not disappoint. she was very knowledgeable and had a way of conveying information that was straight forward and understandable. I was quite fascinated at the way she was able to navigate with such a large group. I would definitely book this trip again and would love to have Mizki be our tour guide.
