First thing in the morning, you will meet your guide at the reception. Then you will take a ride to the footsteps of the sacred Mt. Fuji, or Fuji-san.
As you reach the 5th station, located at 2,300 meters, the Fuji Subaru Line road will lead you to the Shinto shrine Sengen, dedicated to Princess Konohanasakuya. According to local legend, the spirit of the greatest mountain in Japan lives there. In the same area, you will find the Kachi-Kachi Ropeway, which leads to nearby Mt. Tenzo. From the observation deck, you can enjoy the magnificent view of Mt. Fuji and the whole Five Lakes region.
You can visit one of the volcanic caves, each with unusual names like Bat Cave, Ice Cave, and Narusawa Wind Cave. After that, you can visit Yasino Sato village, an open-air museum. There, you can get acquainted with the culture and lifestyle of ancient Japan: take part in a tea ceremony and try on an authentic kimono or samurai armor. Finally, you can visit the local winery to enjoy wines representing Mt. Fuji's best vineyards: a special complimentary tasting is a part of the program. Then, you will return to your Tokyo hotel.
Enjoy visiting Nara, a UNESCO World Heritage ite and Japan's first permanent capital. You will see the sacred 'sika' deers in the park, and you can even feed them!
There’s a hidden world beneath Tokyo — not a subway or an ancient tunnel, but something out of a sci-fi epic. Fifty meters below the quiet streets of Saitama lies the Metropolitan Area Outer Underground Discharge Channel, known to locals as Shutoken Gaikaku Hosuiro. Built to protect Tokyo from floods, this colossal underground space has become one of Japan’s most intriguing offbeat attractions.
