I'm going to visit Tokyo a few months from now and I'd like to visit Mt. Fuji. I noticed that Google Maps won't give me any public transport options, so I thought I'd ask here.
Is it best to get a railpass in advance, take a bus or rent a car?
The railpasses are only worth it if you are going to do a lot of travel (the JR pass also needs to be purchased outside the country). Otherwise, just get individual tickets, unless you're overlapping with some major local holiday you'll be fine.
Public transport is good, there's no need for a car (of course you can't get a train to the summit of Mt Fuji so google maps won't be much good there).
Thank you both for your replies. I wasn't planning on hiking, but the lake district sounds like a very good destination. Bus seems like a very good choice. All your links are going to be very helpful - much appreciated!
