Description
Leave behind the crowds and rigid schedules of big tour buses. This private day trip—about 10 to 11 hours—takes you from Tokyo or Saitama straight to the legendary Mount Fuji and stunning Hakone, totally on your own terms. There’s nothing cookie-cutter about this journey; you decide how fast or slow you go, which sites you linger at, and how your day unfolds.
Your driver picks you up right at your door—hotel, home, wherever you’re staying. It’s not just a ride; you get an experienced pro who speaks English, Hindi, and Urdu, so you won’t be left guessing about local customs, history, or recommendations. Whether you’re traveling as a couple, family, or group of friends, your private vehicle gives you all the comfort and flexibility you need.
The adventure starts the moment you leave Tokyo or Saitama behind. Kick back and watch the scenery change from city buzz to countryside charm as you head towards Mt. Fuji’s mighty peaks.

Chureito Pagoda & Arakurayama Sengen Park (2 hours):

Mount Fuji 5th Station (30 minutes, optional):
If the weather behaves, your driver can take you up to the 5th Station. It’s halfway up the mountain, at 2,300 meters, with jaw-dropping vistas and a glimpse of the Fuji Five Lakes.
Shimoyoshida Honcho Street & Kitaguchi-hongu Fuji Sengen Shrine:
Drive down this retro street with Mt. Fuji looming overhead—makes for a classic photo. Then step into the ancient cedar forest at Kitaguchi-hongu Fuji Sengen Shrine, where mountain pilgrims have passed for centuries.
The Hakone Experience (optional/customizable):
