Stepped back in time at this charming, open air, museum, village. Traditional hatchet, houses line the hillside, many converted into craft shops, museums, and cultural workshops. Try on a kimono or samurai armor for memorable photos, shop for local crafts, or simply enjoy the peaceful countryside atmosphere with Mount Fuji as a backdrop.
Located on the Northern shore of Lake Kawaguchi, Oishi Park offers breathtaking views of Mount Fuji, framed by flowers and autumn leaves. The seasonal gardens and open lakefront, make it one of the most scenic and photogenic stops of the trip.
Walk along the stunning maple corridor, where there are more than 60 maple trees, create a glowing tunnel of red and gold in autumn. This spot is the highlight of the annual autumn leaves festival. Enjoy a relaxing stroll and seasonal food stands while soaking in the vibrant colors. Please note: The autumn foliage at the Maple Corridor greatly depends on the temperature and weather conditions of each year. Typically, the best viewing season is from early to late November. If the leaves have not turned red during your visit, we will visit Oshino Hakkai as an alternative destination.
This Lawson is no ordinary convenience store, it’s a viral spot, from just outside, you can perfectly align the bright Lawson sign with Mount Fuji in the background. Inside you can grab unique food, snacks, drinks, and souvenirs.
Your final stop is one of Japan’s most iconic view points. After a short climb(approximately 10 to 15 minutes), view the beautiful five layer pagoda, here, Mount Fuji rises majestically behind the pagoda, surrounded by fiery red leaves, an image that has appeared countless times on travel magazines, and posters.

We had a van and a small group which was much made the experience personalised. Mio, our guide, spoken excellent English and was thoughtful in adjusting the allotted time for each stop to suit conditions on the day. This is much appreciated. She also provided helpful answers to our questions on other things to do in Tokyo and gave us fun facts along the way to lighten longer rides. All in all, a very good tour packed with a variety of sights to the Fuji lake region. Recommended!
Our tour guide was Yulina. She took great care of our small group. We saw Fuji-san on a clear and sunny day with a bright cap of snow. Yulina instructed us on proper etiquette at the shrine and how to bow and clap after an offering. She explained the luck lottery, and the amulets, even guiding us in our choices. Her explanation of the Japanese language was insightful. She made this beautiful autumn trip very meaningful. She is an excellent guide. Do not miss this trip!
