Mt Fuji and Hakone 1-Day Bus Tour Return by Bullet Train

1.Mt Fuji and Hakone 1-Day Bus Tour Return by Bullet Train

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 26,383 reviews · from $163Our pick

Leave Tokyo by coach for Mount Fuji’s 5th Station, a buffet lunch near the mountain, Hakone’s ropeway and a Lake Ashi cruise. An English-speaking guide leads the day, with audio guidance in several languages. You return to Tokyo from Odawara by bullet train. Clear weather makes a big difference, and the 5th Station and Hakone rides can be affected by road and weather conditions.

“Tour itself was great, not only thanks to weather, but also to truly dedicated guide super-Hiro. One star down for the lunch, bento box would be a better choice compared to this "buffet lunch".”
