Overview

Today, high-speed trains are common worldwide, but the Japanese Shinkansen, or Bullet Train, stands out for its ultra high-speed, comfortable ride, cleanliness, accuracy, and safety. This tour is designed for those interested in experiencing a short ride on the Japanese Bullet Train, with a round trip from Tokyo to Mishima, located at the foot of Mt. Fuji in Shizuoka Prefecture. You can enjoy a pleasant 45-minute ride on the Bullet Train each way. The tour uses non-reserved seating. We also offer special rates for those with a valid Japan Rail Pass. Upon arrival at Mishima Station, we will explore this beautiful local city, including the 1,300-year-old Shinto shrine, Mishima Taisha, and Rakujuen Park. A knowledgeable English-speaking guide will provide insights into Japanese culture, customs, history, and more.
The guide will pick you up at your hotel in the morning and drop you off at the end of the tour.

    The tour guide will pick you up at most hotels in central Tokyo. If your hotel is not listed, please let us know, and we might still be able to arrange a pick-up. After being picked up from your hotel in central Tokyo, you'll embark on an exciting ride on Japan's high-speed Shinkansen, also known as the Bullet Train, from Tokyo Station. The journey takes about 50 minutes. On a clear day, you might catch a stunning view of Mt. Fuji through the train windows, making the experience even more memorable.
  • We will get off the Bullet Train at Mishima Station, located in Shizuoka Prefecture. The city is known as a base for climbers of Mt. Fuji and visitors heading to Hakone. It is also famous for its rich spring water from Mt. Fuji. We will explore Shirataki Park and walk along the stream of crystal-clear water.
  • Mishima Taisha Shrine
    Mishima Taisha is one of the oldest and most important Shinto shrines in the area, with a history spanning over 1,300 years. It was respected and admired by numerous samurai warlords, including Minamoto no Yoritomo, the founder of the Kamakura Shogunate government. You can enjoy a very tranquil and sacred atmosphere within the shrine precincts, and you will also learn how Shinto influences Japanese lifestyle and culture. Additionally, there is a deer park on the property where you can feed deer crackers to the resident deer.
  • Rakujuen Park
    After enjoying a Japanese-style lunch, we will visit Rakujuen Park, located next to Mishima Taisha Shrine. This municipal park features forests, ponds, streams, historical buildings, and a small amusement park and zoo for kids. You can explore the nature paths by the pond and walk inside the historical wooden building, which was once the residence of the imperial family.
  • Mishima
    Finally, we will catch the bullet train departing Mishima Station at 2:00 pm and enjoy another pleasant Shinkansen ride back to Tokyo. Let's make the most of this comfortable, high-speed, high-tech train journey! After getting off the train, your guide will escort you back to your hotel.
