Day 1 Tokyo A fusion of both an ancient and modern mecca, Tokyo is one of the most amazing cities in Asia, if not the world. On a clear day you will see Mt Fuji standing boldly in the distance to the West of the city.
Days 2-3 Mt. Fuji Take the bus to Kawaguchi, a town that lies at the base of Mt. Fuji and start your walk along the oldest pilgrimage trail up the mountain. At 3,776 metres high Mt. Fuji is Japan's tallest mountain and a national symbol. Snow-capped throughout most of the year, views from its majestic volcanic cone are breath-taking.
Days 4-5 Tokyo Today is at your leisure in and around Tokyo and a chance for some final sightseeing or to indulge yourself in a rejuvenating Shiatsu massage.
Important notes 1. Mt. Fuji is a rewarding but difficult climb. We do offer the option to do guided day walks of the area instead. There is not any change in the trip price. Please advise your preference at time of booking. Unless otherwise advised the itinerary including the Mt. Fuji climb will be booked. 2. Although the official climbing season is from 1 July to 31 August conditions at the summit vary greatly. If you are climbing a month either side of the season, please contact Intrepid about chances of reaching the summit. 3. It is important to come prepared with clothing for cold and wet weather. 4. In the event that you are not able to climb Mt Fuji due to weather conditions you will participate in hikes of the surrounding area.
