Review for: 一日遊

We were very lucky. The sky was very blue and clear that day, and we could have a panoramic view of Mount Fuji. Especially the excellent tour guide Song. She shared local customs and folk customs, and told the group members the best photo spots at the scenic spots. Thank you Tour Guide Song and driver, it was a great trip, highly recommended!

The tour guide, Ms. Song, was very professional. She explained the history and characteristics of each scenic spot in detail. She also provided appropriate visiting times. She also reminded the driving time and informed each photo-checking spot. Thank you very much! This itinerary is highly recommended!

The itinerary is a bit rushed, especially the first scenic spot, Oshino Hakkai, including sightseeing and snacks for lunch only lasts 1 hour. However, the departure time from Tokyo Station on weekdays is not too early at 9 o'clock; the tour leader Xiao Yu adjusts the itinerary according to the weather, and the weather is also good. I have seen the high side of Mount Fuji many times; according to the tour guide, June is the rainy season and there is a lot of moisture, so I am lucky to be able to see Mount Fuji.

Review for: 週末以及日本紅日子出發時間:JR東京站8:00/新宿西口8:30

The meeting place was easy to find. The itinerary is OK, but every attraction is a bit scary because the queues are so tight. All in all, the price is worth it.

Review for: Departure time on weekends and red days in Japan: JR Tokyo Station 8:00/Shinjuku West Exit 8:30

the itinerary is too packed for 4 locations in a day. as it’s a tourist spot, everywhere is crowded. aside from mt Fuji was not visible due to bad weather, the time allocated per location is just 1 hour. IMO the Lawson is totally not necessary. didn’t have enough time at all when in oshino Hakkai village. just grab a quick lunch there and took few photos of full bloom Sakura. in the itinerary, chureito pagoda was supposed to be first in the list but it was scheduled to be second last. we were only allocated 1 hour to get up and down to the pagoda which takes 15-20 min of 400 steps staircase per trip. we were rushing all the way holding our breath. not enjoyable at all. I would prefer to go on my own with my own pace in future. prefer the tour guide to speak both English and Chinese. as some of us are not as fluent in Chinese. bus seating was quite chaos because there’s a family took other people seat and many have their seats taken after that. could have set some rules of seat in the bus.

The weather is very good today, and the visibility of Mount Fuji is very high. We have completed all four itineraries. The tour leader, Mr. YAN, is very enthusiastic and will share everything about Japan along the way. I think this is an unforgettable journey.

The best reason why I wanted to join the one-day tour was that the driver arranged to go to multiple attractions at once, so I didn’t have to arrange my own transportation. Because transportation to Mount Fuji’s scenic spots is not always easy. I joined the tour on January 29th. , there are many people who want a large tourist bus and a small car, and they need to show off everyone first. But everything is well arranged. The tour guide gave us enough time at each attraction to do everything we wanted to take photos of. If you just want to go back and forth in one day, I think joining a one-day tour is a good way. Because it was a nice day, he saw a very clear Mount Fuji.
