Today I went on the excursion to Hakone, and it was wonderful. Our guide, Eric, was very friendly, professional, and helpful. He shared anecdotes and interesting facts about this area near Mount Fuji. The bus ride was very comfortable and useful for taking a nap. I highly recommend this lovely day tour to everyone, both for the scenery and for the opportunity to buy plenty of souvenirs. Thanks again to our kind guide for a great experience!!

it was a blast! Originally I was planning to do a separate Hakone and Mt. Fuji trip and was genuinely excited when there was a 2 in 1 tour. Our tour guide (Jack) offered a lot of trivia and tips for our Japan trip and is highly recommended. Thank you for a memorable birthday, Gogoday.

​⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The absolute highlight of our Japan itinerary! ​Escaping the hustle of Tokyo for a day in Mt. Fuji and Hakone was an unforgettable reset. Seeing Mt. Fuji's iconic peak in person is stunning enough, but the real magic of this tour is how every segment feels like a new perspective: ​The Volcanic Vistas: Standing at Owakudani with the sulfur vents below and Fuji rising behind you is surreal. (Don't skip the black eggs!) ​On the Water & Air: Gliding across Lake Ashi on the pirate ship offered breathtaking views, followed by sweeping panoramas on the Hakone Ropeway. ​Stress-Free Logistics: Navigating Hakone's multi-layered transit (buses, ropeways, boats) on your own can be confusing, but this tour seamlessly connects every piece of the puzzle. ​Special thanks to our guide (Yang) and driver for keeping everything punctual while giving us plenty of time to explore. Worth every penny!

Despite the bad weather and rain ☔️, the experience was good and relaxing. We weren't able to enjoy everything the boat offered, but I still recommend it. I presented the voucher, and it took a little while because they weren't fully equipped, but everything went smoothly in the end.

This one-day tour was the highlight of my Tokyo trip, and it definitely didn't disappoint! Sure, the early start was a bit tiring, but our guide made the bus ride super engaging with fun stories about Japanese culture and Mt. Fuji, so the journey flew by. The air at the scenic spots was incredibly fresh, and the views were absolutely breathtaking. Seeing Mt. Fuji in person—something I’d only ever seen in photos—was even more majestic than I imagined. We were so lucky with the perfect weather and a crystal-clear view of the summit! Every single spot looks like a postcard. Highly recommend this for anyone who loves taking photos!

The tour was excellent. The day was perfect; we did everything. Our driver was really nice. Our tour guide, Peter, was excellent. He spoke very well English and very knowledgeable, he provided all the necessary details for this trip. This is highly recommended. Also, don't forget the bullet train; you have to experience it. The gondola and the pirate boat were great. Everything was perfect. The ride was smooth from Tokyo to Mount Fuji. It was a rainy day, but that didn't stop anything. We still did everything we planned. It was a great experience. Thank you Peter.
