Fixed-price taxi plan connecting Lake Kawaguchiko and JR Mishima Station

The area around Mount Fuji , where you can experience the great outdoors with sights such as Mount Fuji, Lake Kawaguchiko, and Aokigahara Forest, is just about 90 minutes from central Tokyo , and is a popular tourist spot for travelers from all over the world.

To get from Lake Kawaguchiko to popular tourist destinations in Western Japan such as Osaka, Kyoto, and Hiroshima , you need to take the Shinkansen or airplane, then return to Tokyo from Lake Kawaguchiko , or take an overnight express bus from Lake Kawaguchiko to Kyoto or Osaka. Night buses are cheap and have the advantage of taking you to your destination while you sleep, but they take 11 hours to get to Osaka, making it difficult for families with small children and the elderly to get around.

Therefore, we recommend traveling from Lake Kawaguchiko to the nearest Shinkansen station, Mishima Station, and then boarding the Shinkansen to your destination.

[Reference] How to get from Lake Kawaguchiko to the nearest Shinkansen station (Mishima)

・High-way Bus "Mishima- Lake Kawaguchiko Express Bus Liner": 2,500 yen per person, travel time 1 hour 30 minutes

・Flat rate taxi plan: 6,600 yen per person (calculated as 33,000 yen per car/5 people) Time required: 56 minutes

The fixed-rate taxi plan is more expensive than the express bus, but it can save you time as it takes about an hour to get there. You can also depart at a time of your choosing, so you can enjoy sightseeing at Lake Kawaguchiko before heading to Mishima! Furthermore, you can easily move around by putting heavy luggage in the trunk.

Fujikanko Travel's convenient flat-rate taxi plan that connects to the Shinkansen station "Mishima" is a "fixed fare", so even if you encounter traffic congestion, there will be no additional charges added to the fare, so you don't have to worry about how much it will cost.

Recommended for those who:

・Those travelling by Shinkansen to Kansai and Chugoku Region regions such as Osaka, Kyoto and Hiroshima

- People traveling with family or in a group and carrying a lot of luggage

- People who want to shorten travel time and enjoy sightseeing more

Details of the fixed-rate taxi plan to Mishima Station

Around Mishima Station, you'll find a variety of long-loved local delicacies , including specialty eel restaurants, Mishima croquettes , and wasabi-zuke.

Near the station are tourist attractions such as Mishima Taisha Shrine, Mishima Municipal Park Rakujuen, and Mishima Sky Walk , so we recommend planning to enjoy sightseeing in Mishima rather than heading directly from Lake Kawaguchiko to Kansai areas such as Osaka or Kyoto . Also, it is easily accessible from Mishima to Hakone and Gotemba, taking about an hour by bus, so we also recommend planning to use Mishima as a base to enjoy the Gotemba Premium Outlets and sightseeing in Hakone.
