Mt.Fuji & Lake Kawaguchi-ko
Joined 2020
Mt.Fuji is not the tallest mountain in Japan, but it symbolizes Japan. It is 3,776m high and an independent peak representing Japan.
From Shinjuku, you can take a special train to Mt Fuji. That is a 2-hour journey.
Because of the majestic beauty of its ridgeline, it has been alive as a source of various cultures since ancient times. We recommend enjoying the view of Mt. Fuji from the five lakes surrounding Mt. Fuji, such as Kawaguchiko or Yamanakako. You can enjoy Mt.Fuji without climbing.

“Best Guide”
We came to Japan for 21days and 5 cities. We had arranged multiple guides arranged in each and Nao was the best of them! He arranged the route and what we were going to see. Told us how we would get there AND had detailed maps in English of the area! Very good English skills and very knowledgeable of Japanese history and relevance of the sites to that history and showed by diagram where fit in Japanese history timeline. Very much enjoyed the tour and Nao as a guide! Highly recommend him!

(6 reviews)Thank you, Daniel. I'm very happy you enjoyed Tokyo by departing from the hotel on a city bus and taking the subway, water bus, and the new Yurikamome transportation system. Only in Tokyo can you experience the diversity of history and culture. Japan still has many unique cultures, and I hope you will revisit Japan. See you soon. Naoya Usuda
