Day Trip Details
At the designated time, we'll meet at the meeting point to begin this day trip to Kamakura and Mount Fuji. Let's go!
We'll travel for an hour along Tokyo Bay until we reach our first stop: Kamakura. Once here, we'll visit the Kōtoku-in temple, where we'll see the Great Buddha, a majestic bronze statue that has become a symbol of Buddhism in Japan. We'll then head towards Hakone, where we'll hop onto a boat to sail across the tranquil waters of Lake Ashi, and if the weather is on our side, admire the impressive Mount Fuji.
We'll then make our way to the charming village of Oshino Hakkai, located in the vicinity of Mount Fuji. Did you know that its name means Eight Seas? It's famous for its crystal-clear springs, as a result of past eruptions and intense volcanic activity. Here, you'll have some free time to stroll through this picturesque place and try a tasty lunch at a local restaurant.
After lunch, we'll go to Kawaguchi Lake, where you'll have free time to explore the area. Afterward, we'll stop at Oishi Park Parking Lot.
Lastly, this 11.5-hour day trip will come to an end back at our original meeting point in Tokyo.
