After approximately 80 minutes of travel, arrive at Oshino Hakkai. Formed by snowmelt from Mt.

4Lake Yamanaka
Continue to Lake Yamanaka, the largest of the Fuji Five Lakes and the highlight of the tour. Board a sunset cruise and enjoy approximately 20 minutes on the lake. From mid-October through late February, Lake Yamanaka is one of Japan's most famous locations for viewing Diamond Fuji, a natural phenomenon that occurs when the setting sun aligns perfectly with the summit of Mt. Fuji, creating the appearance of a shining diamond. Viewing the phenomenon from the water offers a unique perspective unavailable from most shoreline viewing areas. As the sun lowers toward the mountain, reflections spread across the lake, creating an unforgettable sunset scene. Please note that Diamond Fuji is a natural phenomenon and visibility depends on weather, cloud cover, and atmospheric conditions on the day. After the cruise, begin the journey back to Tokyo. The tour concludes with arrival at Shinjuku at approximately 6:40 PM (6:20 PM for departures in November).
