Among the one-day mini trip series, “East Japan Railway Holidays” first recommends fruit-picking experiences in Yamanashi Prefecture. Known as the Kingdom of Fruit, Yamanashi leads Japan in the production of peaches, grapes, and plums, offering year-round opportunities to enjoy the rural delight of harvesting fruits and tasting them at the source. July marks the peak season for peaches — the perfect time to visit!

Fuji-Q Highland, set against the backdrop of Mount Fuji at the foot of the mountain in Yamanashi, is also a popular choice for a one-day trip. The park features several roller coasters that have earned Guinness World Record status, as well as many rides suitable for families. Among them, FUJIYAMA, known as the king of roller coasters, challenges your courage with its thrilling speed and steep drops.

From Tokyo, you can also make a day trip to the Chiba Prefecture’s Kawagoe Marine World. Located along the majestic Pacific coastline, the park is home to approximately 800 species and tens of thousands of aquatic and marine creatures. Highlights include performances by orcas (also known as killer whales), dolphins, sea lions, and beluga whales — often allowing visitors to get up close for photos. It’s an educational and fun ocean-themed destination for families.

Another hit for family-friendly day trips is Mami Farm, where various shows are held daily, such as entertaining sheep shearing performances, thrilling pig races, and parades of ducks. Visitors can even try milking a cow and see alpacas, affectionately called “grass mud horses.” Don’t miss the seasonal flowers, delicious ice cream, and Mongolian-style barbecue meals available at the farm.

In addition to one-day mini trips, “East Japan Railway Holidays” also offers the Tateyama Kurobe Alps route, providing a fresh choice and enhanced experience.
