Shinjuku → Kawaguchiko
| Method | Duration | Cost | Transfers | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bus Budget | 105 min | ¥2,200 | 0 | Direct highway bus from Busta Shinjuku, no transfer -- widely considered the most convenient and commonly used method, though subject to road traffic delays. Fare varies somewhat by operator and time of day. |
| Train Speed | 115 min | Fare not listed | 0 | Limited express "Fuji Excursion," direct with no transfer. It physically couples with the Kofu-bound "Kaiji" as far as Otsuki, then splits off and continues alone to Kawaguchiko, so a traveler with a Fuji Excursion ticket stays on one train the whole way. Fully reserved-seat; popular weekend departures sell out quickly. |
| Train | — | Fare not listed | 1 | Via Otsuki: Take the JR Chuo Line from Shinjuku to Otsuki, then transfer to the Fujikyu Railway for Kawaguchiko. Some local-train journeys also require a transfer at Takao. Check timetables and fares for your travel date. |
