About this experience

Escape the city and immerse yourself in the vibrant colors of spring with this all-inclusive Mt. Fuji tour.

Your journey begins at the spectacular Fuji Shibazakura Festival, where a carpet of 500,000 pink moss plants sprawls endlessly beneath the majestic Mt. Fuji. It is a once-a-year spectacle that CNN named one of "Japan's 31 Most Beautiful Places." Next, we visit the Lawson Fujikawaguchiko Town Hall, the famous "Instagram holy land" where everyday life meets the grand mountain view.

After capturing the perfect shot, we head to Oshino Hakkai, a traditional village famous for its eight crystal-clear ponds fed by Mt. Fuji’s melting snow. The tour concludes at Hanano Miyako Park, a flower paradise located at an altitude of 1,000 meters, where cherry blossoms and seasonal flowers bloom against the stunning mountain backdrop.

Traveling comfortably on a dedicated bus from Tokyo, this tour offers the most efficient and beautiful way to capture the essence of spring around Mt. Fuji.
