We are planning to take the highway bus from Shinjuku to Mt. Fuji 5th Station without any transfer. We'll be taking 2 medium size luggage and a baby stroller with us. I would like to know:
1). Will there be enough storage space for our luggage on the bus?
2). Is there any luggage locker available on Mt. Fuji 5th station when we reached the bus terminal?
3). Are we able to reserve our seats on the bus from Mt. Fuji 5th Station to Kawaguchiko train station?
4). Will there be enough storage space for our luggage on the bus from Fuji 5th Station to Kawaguchiko station?
5). If we intend to hire taxi for a day trip from Kawaguchiko to Halone, may I know where could we find out available taxi hiring services on line?
Thanks.

However, it is the first-come and first-served basis, so I would recommend you to arrive at the bus station early enough.

2. There are a lot of lockers at Mt. Fuji 5th Station. The availability depends on the season and time of the day you are arriving.
One option is sending your luggage to the hotel in advance.

We are sorry it is only in Japanese. It might be better to make a phone call to 0120-818-229 when you need to charter a taxi.
