Smooth transaction and ride. We could have gotten this at a lower rate if we booked early, but due to the need to wait for visa, we only booked 2 weeks before our trip. It was easy to book and request to be dropped off at disney hotel rather than at Disneyland.

Fifth time going to Mount Fuji, first time taking the bus because I couldn't get JR tickets. Turned out to be better than expected. Besides the bus stop being super hard to find at the beginning, the benefits are: 1) The bus guarantees a seat and is comfortable. 2) Goes directly to the hotel's onsen (hot spring) street without having to transfer. 3) Once on the expressway, there's no traffic, basically the same travel time as the JR. 4) You can eat at the rest stops along the way.

It was one of the memorable parts of my Tokyo trip since I was the only passenger plus the driver and tour guide. I wasn't expecting a tour guide but I got one and he is so friendly. Plus, the perfect weather showing the magesty of Mount Fuji. This is my second time seeing it but it still amazed me. Will definitely come back again.

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 .

This is my second time coming here! Present the qrcode which will then be exchanged for a physical ticket. This is a normal day pass, meaning you’d have to wait in line for rides. Prioriy line is separate and can be bought on their official website, app, or at the rides entrance.

We joined this Mount Fuji tour on June 22, and we were incredibly lucky to have a clear view of Mount Fuji! It was such an unforgettable experience. Our guide, Kerry, was wonderful—she shared many helpful tips, took us to the best photo spots, and was so kind, friendly, and attentive throughout the day. Everything was well organized, and I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Japan. Thank you, Kerry, for making our trip so special!

Having a small group tour is better than the big one (bus). There's always communication with everyone. Our guide, Lee, is kind & drives carefully. Even though it was raining, the Mr Lee still stops at every place listed on the itinerary. He tries to explain history or bit & pieces of the places we've been. Overall, it was a good experience. Just a bit sad because we haven't seen Mt Fuji coz it was raining 😞
