Why take this tour?

The Fuji Bike Tour support car drives you to the highest point on Mt Fuji's slope to which vehicles can go. There you'll take in views of the mountain's peak, a beautiful shrine and the majestic landscapes and clouds below. Then you'll bike down the mountain through picturesque countryside and forests. You can choose to take a fast, exhilarating ride downhill or a leisurely spin that includes stops at roadside vista points with panoramic views. This tour is the best way to experience biking on Mt Fuji without having to ride uphill. It is ideal for visitors of average to low fitness as well as those who only have time for a short tour. Your guides will be native English speakers who also speak and read some Japanese but aren't professional interpreters. One guide will ride a bicycle and lead the tour. The other will drive the support car. We can provide bikes in a full range of sizes. Select the "Upgrade to Road Bikes" option, and we'll provide road bikes instead of hybrid bikes.
