Amazing Mt Views - Arigato did a FABULOUS job of showing us the Mt. Fuji area and the World Heritage Center, shrine, beer, sake and the BEST Yaki Soba I have ever tasted. Since we booked before 2020, their guide actually picked us up at our Tokyo Hotel. This has changed now, but still worth every penny. The tour was not just food, but also Japanese customs and shrine protocol. I can't say enough about how well this tour group treated us. They also have many other tours in Japan. Since we went during the virus scare, we were the only ones on the tour! They were very safe and we did not get sick from virus or food choices. They know what they are doing! They can adjust for certain wishes. They found us a fabric store with lovely Japanese fabrics.

Great service, great food, great company! - My wife and I went on the Fuji tour. Lauren and Alex were wonderful travel companions and had selected numerous local traditional (and great!) restaurants. The food highlight was the Yakisoba restaurant. Mt fuji was shy the day of our visit as it was raining all day... but with great guides and great food we still enjoyed ourselves immensely. We are aspiring foodies and found this tour to be a great way to experience very tasty local cuisine and learn a lot about the area. The Mt Fuji museum was another highlight.
