Mt. Fuji
Tokyo Day Tour · Mt. Fuji & Oshino Hakkai
Above the clouds — a world apart.
Just a few hours from Tokyo, step into a landscape unlike anywhere else in Japan. The 5th Station of Mt. Fuji floats above the clouds at 2,300 m, while Oshino Hakkai’s eight sacred ponds mirror the mountain in crystal-clear water that has filtered through its slopes for over 80 years.
Why this tour?
