One of the highlights of our trip! - So happy to have booked this tour. It was an extremely convenient way to travel from Tokyo to the Mt. Fuji area. They were even able to drive us directly to our hotel near Lake Yamanaka. Tim was phenomenal! We traveled on a cloudy day so the glimpses of Mt Fuji were sporadic, Tim made sure to try and stop each time the clouds cleared so we could get a view. He knew all the back roads to best avoid traffic and was a great and friendly driver. He even made a side stop to get a beautiful lake view of the mountain. He recommended a wonderful spot for lunch with a view of Lake Saito. Would 10/10 recommend. My only recommendation would be for travlers to look up the stops of the itinerary if you are interested in the historical significance of each spot. Thank you Tim for making an unforgettable highlight of our trip!

Mt Fuji in March - Great day seeing the area around Fuji-san. We were blessed with beautiful weather, perhaps one week shy of cherry blossom opening here. Guide “Mike” was very friendly and helpful in managing our time.

Great custom experience, lovely memories to bring back home - We had a great time with Tim. We were able to reach almost all the spots we wanted and the best of this experience is that you are the one setting the times in each spot. It was flexible enough to allow us cancel crowded spots and visit another alternate ones that were amazing. Understand this is not a tour but a multilingual driving service where you set the route for the tour. And even if Tim was nice enough and we had some nice facts from him, this is not a fully guided tour. But it's still totally worthy.

A trip to remember. - We took a customizable private tour to Mt. Fuji with a private driver. Today's trip to the Mt. Fuji with Tim was amazing from the time we were picked up from the hotel. Our guide/driver, Tim is an exceptionally professional driver with the excellent knowledge of the area and perfect English and Russian. Only because of him, we managed to get picture of the Mt. Fuji in a cloudy day. Tim drove us around all five lakes, we saw ancient villages, famous sacret shrines where samurais pray before the battles. As culmination of our trip was a park where Tim took us to see waterfalls. This park was not crowded, maybe, not too many people have a knowledge about it! What a beautiful, peaceful view! It was worth extra 45 min of driving to that place. I am highly recommend this 10 hours private tour and hopefully you will be lucky to see it all with Tim.

Tokyo, Japan - Alim was so gracious and personable and he took great care of us. He was very attentive to the places we wanted to go to. I would recommend him as your driver to take you on tours or anywhere you want to see. Excellent service. Request Alim when booking your tour. Aloha

Cloudy, but cool - We planned a wonderful trip to see the sights around Mt Fuji that the rainy and cloudy weather somewhat dampened. Despite not seeing the icy peak, Mike our tour guide did his best to accommodate us. We had a good time seeing the village, shrines and caves in the mountains. Thanks!

Attempt to see Mt. Fugi - Unfortunately, we went while it snowed so we didn’t get to see Mt. Fugi (cloudy). Had a little scare driving up the mountain as the roads were covered with ice and snow so we got stuck. My husband had to assist the driver by getting out of the car and give the car a push to get out of the snow. Also instructing the driver how to break the ice on the road with the steering wheel to gain traction. Our driver told us it was his first experience to drive in the heavy snow, so that wasn’t exactly very comforting to hear. My only recommendation for the company is to use a proper car, such as an SUV with 4WD or AWD, or have tire chains handy to prevent getting stuck and be able to drive in such conditions. We were riding in a minivan that was spacious and comfortable. And maybe keep track of the weather conditions to communicate with the customer(s) for postponement, etc. Because of the unfortunate weather, I was only able to see 2 out of the 5 sites I really wanted to see. Other than that, our driver was very nice and knowledgeable about the sites we wanted to see. Also got us back to our hotel safely.
