When was this take? is it around late April?

[@HappyLinTravels]

This was around mid October

[@nekooolay]

Not sure if i missed it but when specifically did you go there? I want to see the red kochia and the autumn peak.

[@HappyLinTravels]

I went on 15 October, but i suggest if you want to see the peak of autumn, to go like a week or 2 weeks later.

Hi, may i know whr did u leave your luggage when u went to the cave on day 1? and to get to your guest house - kawaguchi station is also all by public bus?

[@HappyLinTravels]

Hi, I left my luggage at the guest house I was staying at. They allowed me to leave my luggage there even thought i arrived prior to check in time. You can walk to the guest house from Kawaguchi station. It's really near, maybe about 5 - 7 mins of walking, depending on how fast you walk. Very convenient to get around.

Hey Just curious, will we find ice in the cave if we visit in October?

[@HappyLinTravels]

HI, I visited in October and there was definitely no ice. If you want ice, i suggest visiting in either December or January, during the peak of winter.

hi, did you reach oshino hakkai area with the tourist bus pass, without any additional charges?

[@HappyLinTravels]

Hi, Yes i used a tourist bus pass to get to all of the attractions. I used the Mt.Fuji Shizouka pass, but I would recommend getting the tourist sightseeing pass from Kawaguchi Station instead. It's more convenient and widely recognize.

[@darkchoco9395]

How do you move about in the kawaguchiko town? By Public buses or most attractions can be reach by foot?

[@HappyLinTravels]

You definitely need to board the public bus to get to the attraction in Kawaguchiko. It's not walkable. You can get a tourist pass for the busses at the Kawaguchiko Station.

Did you book the bus ticket ahead or just hop on the bus and used Suicia card?

[@HappyLinTravels]

You definitely have to book the bus ticket ahead of time, to guarantee a seat. If you can't do it online you can also go to the Shinjuku bus expressway ticket office to book your seats a few days earlier. I would recommend booking ahead as some busses are full on the day of departure.
