Highly recommend this tour to see Mt Fuji and surrounding sites! - This was our favorite day in our two week trip to Japan! It was amazing to see the more rural side of Japan. The spots on the tour offer wonderful views of Mt Fuji. We couldn’t see much of the mountain but it still was a wonderful day! We did the lunch option with a hot pot and it was a fun experience. Our tour guide Eric was great! He offered good tips and was a fun tour guide.

Highly recommend! - I had a wonderful experience on the tour to Lake Kawaguchiko to view Mount Fuji. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, and seeing Mount Fuji up close was truly unforgettable. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and informative, providing interesting insights about the area, its history, and the cultural significance of Mount Fuji throughout the day. I especially appreciated how well-paced the tour was. The guide ensured that we had sufficient time at each stop to take photos, explore, and enjoy the beautiful surroundings without feeling rushed. Their organization, professionalism, and friendly demeanor made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to experience the beauty of Mount Fuji and the Lake Kawaguchiko area. It was a memorable day and one of the highlights of my trip to Japan.

Great way to see Mount Fuji - The guide and driver were really helpful and friendly. The pace of the tour was relaxed with plenty of time to spend at the stops along the way - we were lucky with Mount Fuji on full display until our very last stop. The optional lunch was excellent, well worth it. Great way to spend the day - see parts of Tokyo you wouldn’t normally as well as Mount Fuji!

Great team, very friendly and knowledgeable! - Everything was great, the tour, the guide, the stops, the driver! The only thing was that I didn’t see the actual Fuji due cloudy weather. Otherwise everything was perfect!

Beautiful Mt. Fuji. - We had a nice relaxing trip to Mt.Fuji. The trip had four stops, with plenty of time at each stop. We bought the meal package and it was great. The only problem we had was the traffic coming back. It took about 4 1/2 hours to get to our drop off spot.

Day out from Tokyo - An enjoyable but somewhat odd tour — you visit some “unusual” spots, and their key highlight is the *potential* views of Mt Fuji. Go for the lunch option; they all looked fab (& the tofu option was delicious). The guide & drivers were brilliant

Well organized but lacking in content - The organization of this trip was excellent. The guide (Eric) showed up at the designated location and time, the bus was clean and comfortable, the size of the group was great. We had a glimpse of Mt. Fuji before the clouds rolled in. I can see how the stops on this bus trip would have been excellent for viewing Mt. Fuji if it had been visible. I was disappointed in our guide. He did not talk to us very much during the bus rides. I hoped he would tell us more about the areas we were driving through, including more info about Japan. For example, we saw what seemed to be rice paddies, but I am not sure. I would have liked to know how the people in the small towns outside Tokyo were able to make a living and why the houses were so large. I thought we would learn much more from him about culture and daily living. His English was difficult to understand. He seemed much more fluent in Chinese.
