Tokyo - Mt. Fuji with Bullet Train & Lunch
DAY 4
A historic source of inspiration for artists around the world and one of Japan’s most iconic landmarks, Mount Fuji is the highlight of this exciting day tour through the stunning scenery of the famous Hakone region; throughout your tour, you’ll find Mount Fuji providing a dramatic backdrop to the breathtaking natural beauty of this unique area. Starting your day with an exhilarating cable car ride over the Owakudani Valley on the Hakone Ropeway, a sky gondola where you’ll get a unique perspective of the steaming sulphur springs and luscious landscape of this area, you’ll enjoy a short stop in Owakudani itself before heading down to Lake Ashi. Heading out onto the serene waters on a boat tour, with Mount Fuji looming in the distance, you’ll have the chance to see the Hakone Shrine and learn more about the spiritual importance of this region. Then, to make your trip back to Tokyo even more memorable and round out the tour, you’ll take a ride on the famous Shinkansen: Japan’s high-speed bullet train. A nation balancing tradition and natural beauty with advanced engineering and cutting-edge technology, this marvel of modern engineering will give you an insight into the other side of Japan and perfectly compliments the rest of this rewarding experience.
Things to see:
Hakone Ropeway Sky Gondola Tour
Connecting Sounzan with Togendai via the stunning Owakudani Valley, you’ll enjoy breathtaking views of Mount Fuji, and a unique perspective on the luscious landscape littered with hot springs surrounding the mountain, on this scenic cable car ride.

High in Japan’s Hakone region, Owakudani Valley is a remarkable area formed over 3,000 years ago; characterised by a unique blend of rugged terrain and bubbling hot springs, this otherworldly landscape is as beautiful as it is intriguing.
Lake Ashi (Ashinoko)
Famed for its serene beauty and scenic views of Mount Fuji, this 3,000 year-old caldera-born lake is surrounded by luscious mountainscapes and home to historic sites like the Hakone Shrine, whose iconic red torii gate sits on the water’s edge.
Shinkansen (Bullet Train)
A true marvel of modern engineering, you’ll get glimpses of Japan’s scenic countryside as you relish in the modern comforts and efficiency of this world-famous high-speed railway from Odawara Station back to Tokyo proper.
