Visit component sites of the Mt. Fuji World Heritage Site including Mt. Fuji's 5th Station, Oshino Hakkai, Shiraito Falls, and Fujisan Hongu Sengen Taisha Shrine accompanied by a National Government Licensed English Guide Interpreter on this bus tour. This is the only tour taking participants on a trip around the base of Mt. Fuji, which is difficult for independent travelers to do on their own.

We will take you around 4 popular sightseeing spots in the Mt. Fuji area.

- Look forward to admiring cherry blossoms at Fujisan Hongu Sengen Shrine in spring (Late March to Early April) or colorful leaves at Shiraito Falls in autumn (Mid to Late November).

- Select a bento box meal from regular, vegetarian or certified halal. This is the only tour of Mt. Fuji that includes a halal certified bento box meal.

Mt. Fuji 5th Station (30 min)
The bus will head up to the 5th Station along the Subaru Line. The 5th Station is situated at 2,300 meters (7,546 ft) above sea level.
At this height, you will be amazed at spectacular, breathtaking views from above the clouds.
If the Fuji Subaru Line to Mt. Fuji's 5th station is blocked due to road surface freezing, accidents, or weather conditions, the tour will be taken to the highest elevation point possible.
No alternative destinations are planned when the tour reaches beyond the 1st station (2nd station or higher). When the tour has to turn back at the 1st station, or when the Fuji Subaru Line is completely blocked, the tour will visit Oishi Park or Fujisan World Heritage Center (North Hall). Please note that an alternative itinerary may also be omitted depending on road conditions.
Due to weather conditions, Mt. Fuji may not be visible even from the base. However, the tour will not be cancelled and refunds will not be given for this reason.
Mt. Fuji's 5th Station is typically 10 to 15 degrees Celsius colder than Tokyo. On tours in autumn and winter, please bring a coat and other warm clothing.

Oshino Hakkai (40 min)
Snowmelt that has sunk into the ground over long years sees daylight again here in the form of pristine fresh water springs.
Consisting of 8 springs in total, Oshino Hakkai is a protected natural monument.
A bento box meal will be served for lunch. Enjoy the meal on board the bus on the way from Oshino Hakkai to Shiraito Falls. (Drinks are not included.)
Vegetarian meals and halal certified meals are available and must be requested at the time of booking. Changes may not be made after the final reception time (12:00 / 1 business day in advance).

Shiraito Falls (40 min)
Snowmelt from Mt. Fuji falls all at once, creating one of Japan’s best falls measuring 20 meters tall and 200 meters wide.
Participants will be able to walk along the promenade close to the waterfall basin. In autumn, the colorful leaves that surround the waterfall are a sight not to be missed.

Fujisan Hongu Sengen Taisha Shrine (20 min)
This is the head shrine for Asama shrines located all over Japan.
This unique shrine deifies Mt. Fuji itself, and its okumiya, or inner shrine, is located at the very peak. In spring, views of cherry blossoms with Mt. Fuji in the background can be admired from the shrine.
