On this day trip, you'll travel to the Mount Fuji area to discover its many charms. You'll head first to Lake Kawaguchi for multiple viewing points framing the mountain. After taking photos at the lake, you'll ride the Mt. Fuji Panoramic Ropeway to the observation deck. The deck will offer you a panoramic vista stretching far as the Southern Alps on a clear day.

The next part of your adventure will be a discovery of traditional matcha tea. Local instructors will show you how to make the perfect cup and embrace Japanese culture. You'll continue on to Oshino Hakkai, where you'll find eight crystalline springs arranged in perfect harmony. Your final stop will be the social-media-famous Lawson convenience at Kawaguchi Station – a characteristic Japanese shop juxtaposed against the looming mountain. Here, you'll receive a complimentary ice cream or hot drink.
