Highlights
This private tour is perfect for those who want to make the most of their half-day experiencing the charm of Mount Fuji and its surrounding areas. The tour's greatest strength is its flexibility. Considering the season, weather, and your preferences, our experienced guide will create a customized itinerary for you during a briefing at your pick-up point. For example, if you wish to see Mount Fuji from various angles, we visit Oshino Hakkai, Lake Kawaguchi, and the Chureito Pagoda. If you are interested in exploring nature, we visit Narusawa Ice Cave and Shiraito Falls. For those who enjoy a good drink, a plan visiting Fujisan Brewery or Fujiyama Winery is available. Due to time constraints, we will visit recommended spots, but depending on your pick-up location, we may not be able to visit all your desired locations. Typically, we visit 3-4 locations.

5Sunny tours with a personality
We looked on trip advisor as the weather stopped us from going up the planned day of Mt Fuji so was looking for something else to do and came upon “sunny tours”….what a find Sun the company owner agreed to pick us up and spend five fantastic hours with us . At exactly 10 am the next morning Sun turned up and we went to the most beautiful waterfalls then a winery and then Sun took us to a great local restaurant for lunch then to a facility that explains all about Mt Fuji as well as a film and then to a saki brewery . Sun tailor makes the day for you so whatever your interests are he adapts the day for a fulfilling informative day with lots of laughs and insights into the Japanese culture Thank you Sun for a great day Ron , Carmen Dylan , leighee
