Let's explore the Japanese outdoors and see beautiful cherry blossoms and picture perfect views of Mt. Fuji!

This Trip Features;

• Arakurayama Sengen Park; a 15min walk passing some beautiful cherry blossoms along the many stairs leading to the 5-storey Pagoda. This is the place you can get the best and most photogenic view of Mt. Fuji with it's iconic snow capped peak. Together with the 5-storey Pagoda and the gorgeous cherry blossoms, you'll see the most famous view of Mt. Fuji exactly as what you see on Japanese postcards. Absolutely jaw dropping on a clear day!
• Mt. Tenjo; a short (but optional) hike up to the 'Observation Deck' of Mt. Tenjo to enjoy superb views of Mt. Fuji and of Kawaguchiko Lake. You can take the Kachi-kachi ropeway if you don't like hiking.
• Kawaguchiko Lake; a leisurely and flat bicycle ride around Kawaguchiko Lake (about 18km) stopping by some parks here and there to see beautiful cherry blossoms on our way to the Kawaguchiko Sakura Festival.
