We look forward to welcoming you!

What is a bus tour that visits the three major cherry blossom viewing spots: Fuji-Kawaguchiko Cherry Blossom Festival, Arakurayama Sengen Park (Chureito Pagoda), and Oshinohakkai?

This tour is a 4-hour bus tour with a guide (audio guide: English and Chinese) that will take you to Arakurayama Sengen Park (Chureito Pagoda), a famous cherry blossom viewing spot, cherry blossoms along Shinnasho River in Oshinohakkai, and the Fuji-Kawaguchiko Cherry Blossom Festival held near the round hall on the north shore of Lake Kawaguchiko.

The Fuji Five Lakes region is especially crowded during the cherry blossom season. Public transportation (trains and buses) are very crowded and it is difficult to get around on time. It is recommended to rent a bicycle to get around the area, but there is a limit to how far you can go by bicycle. In particular, it takes about 25 minutes from Lake Kawaguchi and Arakurayama Sengen Park to Oshinohakkai by car. Therefore, we recommend this bus tour. Even with limited time, you can visit the recommended spots efficiently.

Furthermore, since this is a 4-hour bus tour, the afternoon is free. You can also visit famous sightseeing spots such as Oishi Park and Kawaguchi Lakeside.
