I had the most amazing time hiking Mount Fuji ! (Eventhough it was the hardest thing I ever did in my 35 years old of living. Firstly, our guides, Ms Sayaka, Mr Billie and Mr Tada were great communicators, experienced guide, knowledgable and extremely caring. They communicated clearly before we started our hike, gave us plenty of tips on how to reserve our energy and gave endless encouragment. During the hike, they were very diligent in keeping the group together, making sure we are safe and showered us with positivity eventhough it was a very tough (murderous) hike. For example, Mr Tada and Mr Billie gave us a safety briefing before we start and he managed to break the ice and made us feel confident in him and the guides. They were very experienced and extremely capable guides hence I feel very safe in their care. Special thanks to Ms Sayaka for her endless encouragement. She helped me pushed through the hike. Lastly, the gears provided were sturdy, reliable and of amazing quality.
