Tokyo
to Mt. Fuji (5th station) 2009/7/2
Fujigoko
Hi,
Most
economical way to visit Mt. Fuji (5 th station) from Tokyo
(Shinjuku station) on a day trip? Is there a JR bullet train that
goes to the 5th station or close to it? or is a direct bus the best
way?
Or am I better off purchasing an all inclusive day tour package
to Mt. Fuji from a tour operator?
Any advice or comments would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Everyday in
July and August and on weekends outside the official climbing
season (except winter), there is a direct bus from Shinjuku Station
in Tokyo to the 5th Station. The cost is 2600 yen one way:

Tour
2009/7/5
We did this
but with a tour and it was 2 full day and totally worth it because
someone else handled the transportation.
We were picked up from our hotel in Tokyo, then went to Mt. Fuji
5th station, lunch on the tour, Owakadani valley with cable car
ride, cruise on Lake Ashi then night in a Japanese onsen in hakone
- then the next day we left at like 1100 and tour dropped us off in
Kyoto but I'm sure there are tours to drop you off in tokyo.
The tour we went with was with JTB/ Sunrise tours

Express
bus to Fujiyama 2009/7/10
The easiest
way to get to mount Fuji is to take the express bus from the
Shenjuku station in Tokyo. The last returning bus leaves around 3
so if you're planning a day trip up and back factor that in. My
wife and I didn't know that and ended up having to pay for a cab
back to Tokyo. by Tuc (guest)

Shinjuku
Station bus 2009/7/17
The site for
booking Shinjuku Station bus is japanese only. I booked this week (
asking my japanese friend to do it for me), and lots of buses are
already completely booked (especially Friday to Sunday)

If the bus is
not booked out, you can make reservations just before boarding at
the bus terminal.
Some buses
get booked out, others don't. Weekends and the Obon week in mid
August are more busy than weekdays.
For today
(Friday), for example, all buses still have some vacant seats
available.
