Cultural Lakeside Walk at Mt. Fuji Sake Snacks and Crafts

Visit a local food shop First, we stroll through peaceful streets away from the crowds of Tokyo and stop at either a beloved croquette shop that has served locals for over 60 years or a traditional Japanese sweet shop that’s been around for more than a century. Enjoy your first bite of local life—freshly fried croquettes, soft rice cakes, or seasonal sweets.

Visit a local shrine Next, we visit a small local Shinto shrine surrounded by trees and silence. Here, your guide will teach you how Japanese people pray—how to bow, clap, and show respect, as well as local beliefs unique to this region. We then walk to a traditional Inden shop, a craft loved by samurai for centuries

We then walk to a traditional Inden shop, a craft loved by samurai for centuries. Inden is made from deer leather decorated with elegant Japanese patterns—soft, durable, and completely handmade. You can learn its history and shop for authentic souvenirs you won’t find in Tokyo.

The tour ends with a group photo by Lake Kawaguchiko with Mt. Fuji in the background.
