🗻 Mount Fuji Panoramic Photo Spots and Healing Countryside Day Trip: From Arakurayama to Saiko Iyashi no Sato, Enjoying Natural and Cultural Beauty
- The itinerary begins at Arakurayama Sengen Park 📸. After climbing 397 steps near the main hall, you can capture a panoramic view of Mount Fuji and the Fujiyoshida city. Whether it's cherry blossoms in spring, fresh greenery in summer, autumn leaves, or winter snow, every angle is postcard-perfect, making it a highly sought-after photo spot for photographers and tourists.
- Next, head to Oshino Hakkai 💧. The eight clear springs, formed by Mount Fuji's snowmelt filtering through natural layers, are crystal clear with shimmering water. Surrounded by lush greenery and mountain scenery, each spring's water is sweet and pure, as if stepping into a fairy tale world, offering a dual experience of natural healing and photography.
- Afterward, arrive at Lake Kawaguchiko, where you can choose between Oishi Park or the Maple Corridor depending on the season.

We were so lucky today! Mr. Takada was our guide for our group of six on our day trip to Lake Kawaguchiko. He provided professional explanations at each scenic spot and helped us take group photos. Even the weather cooperated, allowing us a brief glimpse of Mount Fuji's beautiful face on what was otherwise a rainy day at Lake Kawaguchiko. You simply can't imagine a guide who delivers such consistent and impeccable professionalism and service, ensuring that visitors capture both the scenery and their smiles in their photos. Many thanks to Mr. Takada for his hard work and service today, and gratitude to Mother Nature for the miracle of keeping beautiful Mount Fuji in my photos.
All in all, a beautiful tour! 🗻 Unfortunately, there was a lot of traffic, which reduced the time we had at each sightseeing stop, but on the bright side, we had great weather 🌤️ Our tour guide, Scout, was very helpful, ありがとうございました!
it was a very good trip, got to see many places. although we only had short time in each place, but it’s a long day so nice to see all the places. The lunch wasn’t so great so don’t depend on it, better bring sme with you :) the guide was nice, most of the trip is self guided so you have time to explby yourself so that’s nice. And we had great weather :)
Sia, our guide was very kind, thoughtful and knowledgeable. We had an amazing trip and although at locations the timing was a little rushed, Sia ensured we had. enough time to see everything we wanted to. For us, this tour was more effective than trying to navigate so many locations without the tour in just a day trip. Sia was super responsive on What’s App to ensure the meeting spots were easy to find. You must have cash and everyone has to get lunch at the same place.
had a great day! Our guide was great and gave us enough information and time at each destination. He adjusted the day to make it more efficient and less crowded for some stops. Thus also meant we got to see Mt Fuji before the clouds descended on the mountain.
Our tour guide, Wan Ting, was excellent and highly professional. She was fluent in multiple languages and provided very detailed explanations of the itinerary and its historical context. She was also very kind and helpful to all the group members. The scenery around Mount Fuji was beautiful, and this tour was an excellent value.
We had an amazing Mt. Fuji tour with Sia as our guide! She was very friendly, organized, and knowledgeable, which made the whole trip smooth and enjoyable. Sia shared a lot of interesting stories and tips that made us appreciate the beauty and culture around Mt. Fuji even more. She gave clear instructions, managed our time well, and always made sure everyone was comfortable and having fun. We also loved how she helped us find great photo spots!
I was very lucky to see the full view of Mount Fuji on a cloudy day and enjoy Luna's thoughtful service; the tour guide Xiao Zhou was also very warm and friendly. I arrived in Tokyo yesterday and decided to do this trip based on the weather forecast. I booked it yesterday evening and was able to hit the road smoothly this morning. The attractions are all beautiful and good to take pictures. I recommend it to friends who are visiting Tokyo for the first time🤗
The trip was exceptionally well-organized and truly enjoyable! Sia was one of the best tour guides I’ve ever had—knowledgeable, attentive, and friendly. Thank you for taking such great care of us. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone!
It started out really rough. Meeting place was a mess with multiple tours meeting at the same place. There’s no proper bus stop or waiting area make sure you allow enough time to find meeting place and your guide. Though we had a rough start, the tour guide, Sia was so sweet and excellent. She had made sure to communicate with us when we were meeting and shared pin where to meet that was quite helpful. I do wish there was little more info on what we can expect what is available in each stop so we don’t have to rush to buy souvenirs only to find next stop had much better options. I do recommend anyone to use the bathroom before you start your excursion so you won’t be stuck in line when meeting time is approaching. Overall, it was such a beautiful day and well planned. I would not have been able to put this plan together personally. Meeting people from all around the world and spending time was also fun. Sia-san, you did a great job!! We really appreciated your kindness.
