Overview

We will first head to a panoramic view point in the morning, where you can see Mt. Fuji right in front of you, and lakes below. Then we explore the Aokigahara Forest, to experience the rich nature of Mt. Fuji. In the afternoon, we will explore the cultural and historical aspects of Mt. Fuji, by visiting worship sites, Sengen Jinjya shrines, pilgrimage lava cave, etc. You will be provided with the academic and detailed explanations. I'm a local teacher, and If you are expecting more than an ordinary sightseeing experience, this tour is a perfect choice. Mt. Fuji is not just a mountain, but it has been a source of artistic inspiration and cultural and spiritual symbol for the Japanese for more than 1500 years. Japanese traditionally believed Mt. Fuji is itself a god, and built worship sites and shrines around it, made pilgrimage trips to the summit. If you are interested in the Japanese culture, history and spiritual traditions, this tour is highly recommended.

Itinerary

  • Sankodai

    Breathtaking panoramic view. You will see Mt. Fuji right in front of you, Lakes, and the vast area of Aokigarara forest below. 15 min. walk to a hilltop.

    1 hour

  • Aokigahara Forest

    We will explore the famous Aokigahara Forest, and visit some of the caves. You will see the beauty of the forest, and experience the "forest bathing".

    1 hour

  • Funatsu Tainai Jugata Lava Tree Mold

    We will visit the historical cave where Fuji-ko pilgrims paid homage before they started to climb Mt. Fuji. You will actually go inside the cave and have the spiritual experience.

    1 hour

  • Kitaguchi Hongu Fuji Sengen Jinja Shrine

    Kitaguchi Hongu Sengen Jinjya shrine is one of the main sightseeing spots in the Mt. Fuji area, and it is truly majestic. But unfortunately, many people simply see only the surfaces of the shrine and miss the real significance. I will provide you with the detailed explanations of its history and cultural aspects so that you will understand the significance.

    1 hour

  • Oshino Hakkai

    Oshino Hakkai (Oshino eight ponds) is a famous sightseeing spot. Indeed, the ponds made from the pure spring water of Mt. Fuji are so beautiful, especially with Mt. Fuji on the background. So, it attracts a lot of people from all over the world. But unfortunately, most of the people miss the fact that it was once an pilgrimage site of the Fuji-ko people, and had a spiritual and cultural significance. We explore the often neglected aspects of Oshino Hakkai, so that you will understand the culture and history much deeper.

    1 hour

  • Fujisan World Heritage Center(Mt.Fuji World Heritage Center)

    I will provide you with a brief introduction to the culture and history of Shintoism, Buddhism, and Fuji-ko pilgrims, related to Mt. Fuji.

Fantastic Tour - Would Highly Recommend

Published on Nov, 2024

Momo was a fantastic tour guide. I am traveling with my 75 year old mother who has difficulty walking long distances. He was understanding and modified the tour so that my mom was able to actively participate instead of having to wait in the car. Momo was kind enough to pick us up from our hotel in Fujikawaguchiko. He was incredibly knowledgeable about Japanese history and the history of the area. His English was fantastic and his recommendations for activities and things to do were helpful. He was also kind enough to take us to the local Fall Festival and allow us to experience a Japanese festival. He went above and beyond both of our expectations. If youā€™re interested in Japanese history but donā€™t want to spend the day navigating the local bus system (or physical mobility is an issue for your group), I canā€™t recommend this tour enough.
