Great experience - Yuki was funny and very nice guide. He showed us around Mt. Fuji and some of the famous areas around it with thoughtful explanations of origins and historical importance of shrines and other places we visited. What's especially great is that he has many different choices depending on the weather, situation, and customer preferences. Therefore, you can see the splendor of various Kawaguchiko according to your preferences. Also, Yuki was the perfect guide for my visit to Mt. Fuji as a foreigner because of his ability to speak English fluently. It was extremely helpful in a country where I’ve had to get around with using google translate for the most part.

Fantastic Mr Fuji day trip guide. We felt blessed to have found him! - Yuki was one of the best guides we’ve ever had! And we have hired many over the past 30 years. We hired him to show us around the Mt Fuji area. Yuki was flexible, personable, and was on top of communication with us prior to our tour day. He speaks great English. He shared interesting information with us about the sights we visited (several shrines, a lakeside park, the Mt Fuji 5th station). More importantly he was a delight to be with. We were sad to say goodbye to him at the end of the day.

Yuki gives the best Mt. Fuji Private Tour - Yuki was the best! Was super accommodating to our situation and was able to provide a great tour around Mt. Fuji. As a local, he knew what are the best lowkey spots to go to so we wouldn’t be in such crowded areas, avoiding any photo bombing problems. Went to a ton of scenic spots, showed us his fav Udon/Soba restaurant and was very easy to talk to! Definitely would recommend!

Great day out with a local guide - We had a great trip with Yuki. He’s a local guide with a passion for the mountain and the area, and took our group of 5 to some great spots to take in the views of Mt Fuji and surrounding areas. One of the good things of going with him was that we got to some quieter areas away from the crowds. He’s full of facts and knowledge and happy to share. Thoroughly recommend.

Nice and easy - Yuki was a good guide! He took us to places which were not the usual crowded ones (though I admit I was a bit disappointed because I thought we would be able to go up to the 5th station of Mt. Fuji and also stroll around Oshino). Still Yuki explained that the 5th station was closed at the moment (which I think them should put in the ad, to manage expectations) and that Oshino would be overcrowded. Still, he took us to a Palace at the outskirts - where we took a Soba lunch, and took fantastic pictures just outsize - capturing Mt. Fuji and the cherry blossoms all at once … minus crowds!Our guide was vary considerate as we were all seniors in our small group of 4. All in all, it was a wonderful nature trip for the day. And we learned abot the culture resolving around Mr. Fuji and its goddess.
