Program details

Be blessed by gods and see the majestic snow-capped Mount Fuji rise from the earth into the heavens, discover the picturesque Japanese countryside, enjoy a sky gondola tour, visit a ‘boiling’ valley and cruise a volcanic crater lake during this fascinating full day excursion.

HIGHLIGHTS:


* Behold magnificent views of Mount Fuji

* Admire picturesque rural Japanese countryside

* Navigate Lake Ashi in a scenic pirate ship


Leave Tokyo in the morning for Mount Fuji and Hakone. Driving by coach along the Tomei Expressway, admire the picturesque scenery of rural Honshu and the skyline dominated by the mythical Mount Fuji, which on a clear day can be seen from Tokyo some 100km away.

Take a breather from all the excitement with a grilled chicken lunch at Hakone Lake Hotel (a vegetarian menu is available on request). In the afternoon, enjoy a sightseeing tour by coach around Hakone, which is famed throughout Japan for the Hakone Gongen Shinto shrine, and hop aboard a sky gondola for unbeatable views of the calm waters of Lake Ashi, Mount Fuji and the volcanic clouds of the Owakudani Boiling Valley.

Visit the Boiling Valley itself, site of a crater where you can smell sulphurous fumes and see clouds of steam rise from crevasses. You may also hear of a hard-boiled way to live longer! Finally, release your inner child with a scenic pirate ship cruise across the peaceful Lake Ashi, enjoying the serene natural beauty of the crater lake, under the shadow of the magnificent Mount Fuji. The ships are modelled on medieval vessels and with the unspoiled environment; you’d be forgiven for thinking you had travelled back in time.
