Description
Enjoy panoramic views of Mount Fuji from Lake Kawaguchi, experience the cable car and traditional Japanese matcha, and stroll through a village at the mountain's base for a taste of Japanese life.
Departing from Tokyo and led by a professional guide, you will head to the Fuji Mountain area to explore various stunning photo spots of Mount Fuji within a day, capturing it from different angles. You will also have the opportunity to experience the traditional Japanese tea ceremony at the foot of Mount Fuji, making your own cup of matcha.
1、Lake Kawaguchi Lawson: First, you will arrive at a less-known spot for photographing Mount Fuji, where you can take a unique group photo with Mount Fuji (a cup of hot tea will also be provided).
2、Lake Kawaguchi Matcha Experience: Our second stop is a matcha shop at Lake Kawaguchi, where you will experience making traditional Japanese matcha under the guidance of a teacher, and enjoy a cup, feeling the true Japanese style (the experience is free!). After the experience, you can also browse other matcha products in the store, which are suitable as souvenirs to take back home! You can also go directly outside the store to the lakeside of Lake Kawaguchi to capture the beautiful Mount Fuji.
3、Lake Kawaguchi Kachikachi Mountain Ropeway: The third point is at the observation deck at an altitude of 1075 meters, which is the best location to enjoy the panoramic view of Mount Fuji and Lake Kawaguchi. If the weather is good, you can even see the Southern Alps. If the cable car cannot be taken due to weather reasons, the itinerary will be changed to the Sengoku Samurai Boat at Lake Kawaguchi or the ticket fee will be refunded. The Sengoku Samurai Boat is a pure Japanese-themed sightseeing boat that belonged to the "Navy" of the Takeda clan during the Sengoku period. The design is mainly based on the Takeda clan's symbol "Takeda Rhombus" and "red", showing its gorgeous and brave momentum.
4、Oshino Hakkai: Finally, we will go to the spring village at the foot of Mount Fuji, where there are eight springs formed by the snow water of Mount Fuji flowing through the strata and filtering. Oshino Hakkai is famous for its beautiful natural environment, with the sparkling pool water integrating with the beautiful Mount Fuji, which is extremely beautiful.
