The Chureito Pagoda is a stunning five-story pagoda located on a mountainside in Fujiyoshida City, offering one of the most iconic views of Mt. Fuji. Built in 1963 as part of the Arakura Sengen Shrine, it stands against a breathtaking backdrop of Japan’s most famous peak, especially during cherry blossom season in spring and vibrant foliage in autumn. Visitors can reach the pagoda via a short hike up a staircase, rewarding them with a panoramic view of Mt. Fuji, the city below, and the surrounding landscape.
Lunch
Enjoy the flexibility of choosing your own lunch, with our recommendation to try Mt. Fuji’s delicious local cuisine. Savor specialties like Hōtō noodles, a hearty miso-based noodle soup packed with vegetables, or Fujinomiya Yakisoba, a famous stir-fried noodle dish with a unique chewy texture. You’ll have the chance to dine at local restaurants around Lake Kawaguchiko or Oshino Hakkai, offering authentic flavors and stunning views of Mt. Fuji.
Oishi Park
Oishi Park is a beautiful park located along the northern shore of Lake Kawaguchiko, offering one of the best views of Mt. Fuji. Known for its vibrant flower fields, especially during the spring and summer months, the park features fields of lavender, cosmos, and sunflowers. Visitors can enjoy leisurely strolls through the well-maintained gardens and take in the breathtaking scenery. Oishi Park is a perfect spot for photography, picnics, and appreciating the natural beauty of the Mt. Fuji area.
Oshino Hakkai
Oshino Hakkai is a picturesque village located between Lake Kawaguchiko and Lake Yamanakako, famous for its eight crystal-clear ponds, which are fed by the pure water from Mt. Fuji's underground streams. The ponds, surrounded by lush greenery, are a serene spot to explore, and the area is steeped in traditional Japanese culture.

About Tour Guide Daiki S.
Hi, I'm Daiki.
I am a DJ and used to live in Toronto and London.
I also traveled around the world for over 10 years and now I'm in Japan to help you travel around in Japan!
I speak both English and Japanese and available to work in Tokyo and Kanagawa as a guide.

Also definitely available for finding your favourite restaurant as well.
I'm currently based in Miura City which is one of the most famous areas in Japan for fresh Tuna called "Misaki Maguro".
A lot of my clients say something like...
"I've had tuna before but I didn't know how real good tuna tastes like until I eat this tuna" haha
I love Japanese history so I will be able to give you additional information and explain so you would understand things deeply.
I will help create an unforgettable experience in Japan and so excited to see you!

“Daiki was great! Highly recommend his tours!”
Firstly Daiki was easy to communicate with and open to customizing a tour. He created a Tokyo city tour that was perfect for us, a little historical, a little urban, a great sushi lunch spot out of the way and we got to navigate the subway. Overall I would highly recommend Daiki as a guide, he is friendly, easy going and just a cool guy.
