Asif was our driver and he was great. Lots of knowledge and showed us places to get photos away from the crowds. MT Fuji was a little cloudy but we ended up with some great shots later in the day. Highly recommend this tour.

We just completed a customized private tour of Mount Fuji and Hakone with Afi, and it was amazing! The private vehicle was comfortable, allowing us to enjoy the stunning scenery as Afi shared fascinating insights about the region. Our visit to Mount Fuji's 5th Station was unforgettable, with breathtaking views and plenty of time for photos. In Hakone, the cable car ride was a highlight, with Mount Fuji as a backdrop. Highly recommend it!

Linda the tour guide was amazing! She was informative, engaging and funny. We were very lucky to have a clear cloud day and see the mountain with no clouds blocking it but I don't know if the sites would have been as pretty had we not had a clear day, so just a warning don't expect to be able to see the mt clearly everyday. The tour itself was great though

We really enjoy this trip, we love the scenery. It's beautiful and amazing. We heard about those legends and stories from our tour girl Mizki. The bus clean and driver is polite. We definitely will be back. Special thanks to Mizky, she really arranged this trip very efficiently. Instructions clear, the story and legends she mentioned is cute.

My wife and I booked this tour hoping to catch a glimpse of Mount Fuji, and the experience ended up delivering a whole lot more than just a snapshot for the album. The itinerary is a bit of a marathon, taking you from the Torii gates and downtown on Lake Ashi, volcanic scenery of the Hakone Ropeway and mineral water at Oshino but the pacing allowed us to actually soak it in rather than just rushing to the next checkpoint. The timeline is tight but that’s because there’s a lot to do. We were lucky enough to get pristine views of the mountain, and tasting the black eggs at Owakudani felt like the kind of unique cultural detour that makes a trip memorable. It was a chain of great experiences that flowed together well, and I would honestly sign up for a similar run again without hesitation though the traffic on the way back was a negative variable outside of anyone’s control. That said, the machinery of the tour only worked as well as it did because of our guide, Andrew Shen. Managing a bus full of tourists from different corners of the globe is usually like trying to herd cats, but Andrew kept everyone entertained with personal stories as well as local information and setting a schedule that felt efficient rather than oppressive. He really earned his stripes when we hit the aforementioned massive holiday traffic on the return leg to Tokyo,. Traffic which torpedoed a very expensive pre-paid dinner reservation we had that evening. Andrew stepped in to call the restaurant and smooth things over for us, having them move the reservation to another evening and saving the night when he could have easily just clocked out mentally. It is that level of care that separates a good guide from a great one and we are beyond lucky we were part of Andrew’s family for the day.

The host Sawaki was awesome. He was very informative funny intelligent and made the trip 100% better then I thought it ever could be. He gave us quizzes and was very attentive to all on the bus.

Located between Lake Kawaguchiko and Lake Yamanakako, Oshino Hakkai is a picture-perfect stop near Mt. Fuji that feels like a scene from a Studio Ghibli film. This traditional village is home to eight volcanic spring-fed ponds, charming wooden bridges, water mills, and sweeping views of Mount Fuji on clear days. The ponds are a result of melted snow from Mt. Fuji that’s been filtered through layers of lava, resulting in some of the clearest, coldest, and purest water you’ll find anywhere in Japan.

Oshino Hakkai is a great stop if you’re craving something quaint, cultural, and photogenic, without the crowds of Kawaguchiko.

Eight distinct spring ponds

Take a scenic walk around all eight natural spring ponds, each a result of snowmelt from Mt. Fuji. These ponds vary in size, clarity, and depth, and are revered for their purity and spiritual significance. Many visitors pause to admire the koi fish and capture the still reflections of Mt. Fuji on clear days.

Traditional thatched architecture

Step back in time as you pass by wooden farmhouses, prayer wheels, and rustic shrines. The village preserves the look and feel of old Japan, with thatched roofs and peaceful walking paths surrounded by seasonal flowers and greenery.

Hand-pumped spring water

You’ll find working hand-pumps scattered throughout the village, where visitors can drink Fuji-filtered spring water straight from the source. It’s cold, clean, and deeply refreshing especially in the warmer months.

Local markets & snacks

Explore open-air stalls selling regional specialities like fresh wasabi stems, sticky mochi, sweet rice crackers grilled on the spot, and pickled vegetables. It’s the perfect place to try authentic Japanese snacks and shop for handmade souvenirs.

Photo stops with Mt. Fuji

On a clear day, you’ll get unbeatable views of Mt. Fuji peeking above the rooftops and reflecting in the ponds. Wooden bridges and quiet walkways offer some of the most postcard-perfect photography spots on the entire tour.

Tips for a peaceful visit to Oshino Hakkai

Want to keep it calm, cultural, and crowd-free? Here are a few simple tricks to make your Oshino experience even better.

  • Go early or late in the day
    Midday tours can get crowded. Mornings are serene, and the light is beautiful.
  • Stay respectful at temples
    It’s a living village, not just a tourist spot—speak softly.
  • Bring cash for snacks
    Many vendors are cash-only and sell seasonal local treats. Cards may not be accepted.
  • Wear good walking shoes
    The village paths are stone or gravel, so wear sturdy walking shoes.
  • Ask before photographing locals
    Some vendors are happy to pose, others prefer privacy—always ask first.
