Perfect package for my 12-yo son and me as we have never ski before! We had Trace and Yuyu as our instructors, who came all the way from Osaka to host our trip to the Fujiyama Yeti Snow Ski resort. Trace has been wonderful in rendering the basic lessons for skiing, complete with safety measures and the necessary equipments that we must have for a good beginner experience. We were blessed with the majestic view of Mount Fuji all day long and had fun skiing and playing in the snow. I would recommend package A for you if you are also a first timer like myself. The cafe also serves vegetarian and seafood/fish meal options. Very easy to order using the machine which accepts cash and/or visa/IC/Pasmo. The facilities at Yeti were complete with comfortable changing rooms, toilets, lockers (there is a coin exchange machine on-site if you need 100 yen coins) as the lockers only take coins payment. Overall, a memorable experience for ski, snow, and Mount Fuji.

I had an epic day. There was great communication in the lead up and during the tour. The drive was nice and quiet. I could enjoy the scenic view on the drive. Our guide was so helpful.

the tour is completely excellent and I didn’t expect Mount Fuji has a spellbinding aura and the tour guide Erina is incredibly high spirits and pretty. I would like to recommend this to my family and friends. sulit po to para sa mga pinoy 😁

Our family had an absolutely incredible time on our Mt. Fuji tour! Our guide, Zoe, was fantastic—she was so knowledgeable and shared fascinating insights at every stop. Everything was seamless and exciting from start to finish. We’ll definitely be booking with them again on our next visit!

Great trip, we got to see Mount Fuji from various views. The schedule was just nice, we had ample time to enjoy the Mount Fuji view while returning back to Tokyo station before 6pm. And we are lucky enough to have a clear sky, good view of Mount Fuji for this trip

Easy, low hassle tour! 👍 Omar was clear in giving directions and we had no issues getting to our next spot in time. I would recommend bringing a small tote bag, as you will eventually start souvenir shopping.

Great tour with an awesome guide!
Our guide, Laner, was amazing — very chill, and super chatty, which made the whole experience more enjoyable. The highlight for me was definitely seeing Mt. Fuji on a clear day 🥹 which was absolutely stunning!
Some parts of the tour felt a bit rushed, but considering the itinerary was pretty jam-packed, it’s understandable. I’d also recommend checking Mt. Fuji visibility online a few days before booking to increase your chances of seeing it clearly. Overall, a great experience and I’d still recommend this tour!

We had a wonderful day tour with Mr Alex as our guide and driver. The pre-tour instructions were clear and pickup was right on time, which made the start of the day smooth and stress-free. Mr Alex was friendly, professional, and a very safe driver throughout the journey — plus, he’s easy on the eyes too! 😁
Our first stop was Arakura Fuji Sengen Shrine. The climb can be a little challenging at the beginning, but it’s absolutely manageable We were given about an hour to explore, which was sufficient if you pace yourself and come prepared. Next, we headed to Oshino Hakkai. It was a pleasant stop with lovely scenery.
Our final stop was Gotemba Premium Outlets. While the 2-hour duration felt a bit short — especially after queuing for food — we only managed to cover part of the outlet. I’d recommend planning your shopping route in advance to make the most of the time.
Overall, it was a well-organised and enjoyable tour, made even better by Mr Alex’s warm personality. 👍🏻
