They also feature a café where you can try specialty made blueberry ice cream.
5. Oshino Hakkai
Oshino Hakkai are the eight springs found in Oshino, Yamanashi, Japan. The aquifer water from Mount Fuji comes out to the ground to form these springs. They are a Natural monument of Japan, part of the Mount Fuji World Heritage Site. Winter offers a particularly stunning vista of the iconic mountain. That vista is the striking “Diamond Fuji” phenomenon, which can only be seen from certain places due to the position of the Earth. Diamond Fuji is when the rising or setting sun aligns perfectly with the peak of Mt. Fuji, as though the caldera is cupping the sun.   A small open-air museum, the Hannoki Bayashi Shiryokan, surrounds the largest pond. A small admission fee is required. The water in the Waku Pond is especially clear and clean, and visitors are encouraged to drink it and even take some home in a bottle. It’s a great place to buy gifts and souvenirs, street food is amazing as well.
6. Gotemba Premium Outlets
The shopping mall with all the premium outlets of well known brands. This is optional and if you wants to include this in your itinerary then kindly discuss it with the driver in the morning.

Beautiful scenery, including Mt Fuji.
Spectacular views of the mountains, lakes and several other attractions. We were able to move at our own pace, avoid the crowds and customize aspects of our trip due to the private booking. Plus, transportation was door to door and eliminated stress and headaches. Well worth the extra money. Zaedon our guide was educated and funny and spoke excellent English.

From the pick up time at our hotel until drop off at the end of the tour at our hotel this was a good experience. The driver was very professional and knowledgeable of all the places and sites we visited. He knew the best places to visit and to view Mt. Fuji for great photo opportunities. We really enjoyed this experience and would do it again.

Mt Fuji was amazing and would recommend the trip but unfortunately our driver/guide really only functioned as a driver. He offered absolutely no information about the sites background history etc.

Great day with Azu tours.
Our driver Sakib was fantastic and very knowledgeable. He had good knowledge about the heritage sites and road conditions. We stopped at service stops on the highway so we were comfortable all the way. The van was clean comfortable with leg rest.

We specifically booked this tour to be able to see all that was listed as included in the tour, however this was not our experience.

From the start we were under the impression the tour would pick you up from your hotel, not the case. So after travelling to the meeting point the driver then was late as he too seemed confused regarding the location. The weather was awesome which meant we got to the 5th station. However after having lunch at Lake Kawaguchi, followed by a stroll in Oshino Park, we got to view the Chureito Pagoda. However due to the traffic our driver then said we needed to head back into Tokyo and if we wanted to see anything else that would be overtime and chargeable (so no Oshino Hakkai or Gotemba Outlets). Then after 9 hours we were returned home (despite tour stating approx. 10 hours).

We have done many a tour in the past, where guides/tours have made sure you got to see everything that was included in the itinerary.

For this price point this has to be one of the most disappointing tours we have experienced. I suggest anyone looking at this tour, think twice, it just isn’t worth it!

Our guide was very accommodating and an excellent driver. He worked diligently to show us as much as possible in our day with him. We had a group of 5 and our guide was very patient with all our needs. We had a wonderful day!
