As a travel agency owner in Tokyo specializing in inbound tourism, I am always seeking authentic and memorable experiences. Among these, the FUJI SUMO Show & Experience is one cultural activity I can confidently recommend.
This program, known as "Sumo Experience Japan," is truly excellent. It combines powerful live performances with clear explanations and interactive elements, allowing international travelers to thoroughly enjoy and understand traditional Japanese culture.
It also holds significant value as a "Japanese Cultural Experience Fuji" in the Mount Fuji area, making it particularly recommended for those seeking hands-on Japanese activities.
From a practical standpoint, it's highly compatible with group tours, especially during peak seasons like cherry blossom viewing, providing a reliable option for large groups. Furthermore, it's frequently recommended by nearby hotels, which speaks volumes about its trustworthiness and high reputation.
What personally impressed me was their ability to flexibly accommodate even my most challenging requests. Their readiness to handle last-minute adjustments and detailed requests made me feel confident in recommending it to my clients.
From a travel agency perspective, their English support and well-established operational system are major strengths, allowing us to confidently propose this experience to travelers of any nationality. It's a highly appealing program for tourists looking for a quintessential Japanese experience.

Good and interesting experience to drive around the lake in a mini EV. pick up from main station was easy. Guide was knowledgeable and stopped at a few scenic spots and helped to record videos and took photos . these were later sent to us via air drop at end of activity . Do note that the price for klook is significantly higher than the price offered direct by the tour operator. I managed to appeal for klook best price guarantee which klook honour and refunded the difference in klook cash voucher .

The overall experience of this two-day, one-night trip was excellent. The tour guide's arrangements were very smooth, and their time management was superb, making the entire journey relaxed and stress-free. Along the way, they would introduce upcoming attractions and important notes in advance, which helped us understand the itinerary better and built anticipation. Our interactions throughout the trip were easy and natural, creating a great atmosphere. Overall, it was a very comfortable and pleasant experience, five-star rating!

Since I was leaving Lake Kawaguchiko today, I was busy packing until very late the night before. I was tired and not feeling well, so I overslept the next day. I later found out that they had notified me that I could continue using the kimono rental service, but I saw it too late. Next time I come to Lake Kawaguchiko, I will definitely use this service again!

this is well and TRUELY a must stay. if I were to recommend anything, it’s booking this hotel - the staff are unbelievably kind, the hotel is equipped with everything you need during a stay, and the location is PRIME - right next to Mt. Fuji station. We booked this hotel blind, and to say it exceeded our expectations is an understatement. There’s so much thought and attention to detail put into this hotel, artwork, pieces on history, textile information. Not to mention its brand new! We had direct mt Fuji views right from the hotel room and also from the rooftop deck!! My husband and I loved it to much we booked another night that same day. I honestly cant speak highly enough of this hotel. Thank you to the manager and the lovely staff at the hotel, it was truely a pleasure! You’ve made our stay worth forever remembering :)
