HIGHLIGHTS:

* Travel by Shinkansen

From Nagoya we travel by Hikari Shinkansen for the first part of our journey to the oft pictured and perfectly shaped volcano, Mt Fuji. Once we reach Hamamatsucho we depart by bus to the Fuji Visitor Centre, where you can learn about the volcano through displays and films. Next it’s time to travel through the clouds 7,546 ft above sea level to Mt Fuji 5th Station – nicknamed the border between heaven and earth – located halfway up the mountain.

Admire the views whilst savouring a Japanese set meal before embarking on a fifteen minute cruise across the picture perfect Lake Ashi, a crater lake formed as a result of a powerful volcanic eruption. Once on board, behold Mt Fuji and other surrounding mountains in all their glory. At the lake’s shore we board the Mt Komagatake Ropeway, Japan’s highest aerial tram, which takes you flying 4,452 ft up to the peak of Mt Komagatake, where views over Mt Fuji, the Izu Islands and the coast unfold before your eyes. We then return to Nagoya by bus and Shinkansen, where the tour ends at the station.
