Get Up Close to Japan’s Icons.
Escape Tokyo for a private day road trip in Japan to Mount Fuji. Visit the 5th Station, cruise the Five Lakes, and capture the perfect photos all at your own pace and schedule.
Your private driver picks you up at your hotel and whisks you straight to the mountain. We drive the 'Subaru Line' up to the 5th Station (2,300m high), stop at the crystal-clear ponds of Oshino Hakkai, and find the hidden photo spots that tour buses can't reach. Rain or shine, we adapt the route to give you the best possible experience.
Why Drive?
Public buses around Mt. Fuji are infrequent and often full. With a private car, you can visit 4-5 spots in the time it takes a bus traveler to visit 2. Plus, if the mountain is cloudy, we can instantly try to drive to a different side for a better view!
