Program details

Escape the hustle and bustle of the capital for the day, discover an alternative side to Tokyo and relish the picture-postcode landscapes.



Enjoy a day full of surprises and adventures. A trip up to Mt. Fuji's 5th Station, at a staggering 2,300 meters above sea level - which will offer you captivating perspectives



Cruise along Lake Ashi, a crater lake along the southwest wall of the caldera of Mt. Hakone, formed by a powerful volcanic eruption nearly 3,000 years ago. The lake is famous for its picture-postcard views of Mt. Fuji towering in the distance. Admire the superb views as you glide along the waters on a relaxing boat ride.
