Mount Fuji

English

8 hrs 30 mins

Private tour (only you and Chinami N.)

Up to 4 people

We are going to hike from 1st station to 5th station on Yoshida trails.

Climbing season over 5th of Mt Fuji is from July 1 ~ Sep10.

However, you can hike from the first station to fifth station on Yoshida trails in most seasons.

You see many plants along trails and see a few lakes if the weather is good.

I recommend these people who come to Mt Fuji out of climbing season or who would like to experience not too hard climbing.

“Amazing Mount Fuji Tour with Chinami!”

We had a fantastic day with Chinami in Shimizu and Mount Fuji! She was kind, professional, and very well-organized. The itinerary was perfectly timed, and she made sure we enjoyed every moment without feeling rushed. Chinami shared great insights and took us to beautiful spots with stunning views of Mount Fuji. We felt very well taken care of and truly enjoyed the experience. Highly recommended!

Dear Ahu family. Thank you so much for such a nice comment. We could see Mt Fuji from near the ocean and the observation deck. You seemed to enjoy making wood block printings as well. Have a wonderful trip in the rest pf the days in Japan! Please keep in touch and come to the other side of Mt Fuji next time! Take care, everyone. Chinami

“One day trip to fuji with chinami”

It was an extraordinary trip. chinami was excellent, giving a kind and cordial treatment, and all with smiles. She is knowledgeable about the various places and full of very interesting background stories.

Hi, everyone! Thank you very much for the great review. I am so happy that you enjoyed the tour even though we could not see Mt Fuji all day long. As you said, all sceneries you saw will be very different in four seasons. This tour focus on the history of Mt Fuji religion more, however, if you come to Mt Fuji area again, I will take you trails in the forest and 5th station of Mt Fuji. I appreciated your gratuity and kind worlds you said me. I will visit you in Israel in the future. Keep in touch and take care of yourselves. Chinami

My friend and I absolutely loved our guide with Chinami. She was so lovely, punctual and very knowledgeable. It was a true pleasure to be in her company. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone considering, it is life changing!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review. It was foggy and we could not see much the view from the mountain. However, you seemed to enjoy the trail and history about Mt Fuji. I forgot giving you the brochure of Fujiyoshi city that says the festival, ritual and so on. So, please come back to Mt Fuji area again and climb the mountain to the summit next time! Take care and keep in touch!
