Our driver was professional and navigated perfectly, making the trip unforgettable. Soaring high while paragliding with stunning Mt. Fuji views was an absolute thrill!

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 .

Excellent environment. High quality gear provided, all are from famous big brand such as Snowpeak, Helinox. The bags are so heavy though. Be reminded that the fees for the entrance need to be paid on site, which is a separate cost.

i needed a photographer when i travelled solo to see shibazakura festival, so i hired a photographer via klook and was assigned Taiki-san. I was actually late to my appointment because I took the wrong bus, and he kindly waited for me. He was polite and professional and managed to get the photos i wanted. Thank you!

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.

Overall, it was a fantastic wedding photoshoot experience! From makeup and wedding dress selection to the entire shooting process, the staff were incredibly attentive. The photographers and videographers were also very patient, actively guiding our poses and expressions, which allowed us, who aren't usually good at taking photos, to relax and complete the shoot. Language communication in Chinese was absolutely no problem, and the process went very smoothly. We were also very satisfied with the final photos. The overall service and finished product exceeded our expectations, and we highly recommend them!

experiencia: Our experience with Akatsu at Nagasaki Park was great. He is very professional and takes incredible photos; the sneak peeks we saw on his camera were gorgeous. As a tip for future travelers: I suggest bringing some pose ideas or references saved on your phone. Akatsu is very accommodating and it will make the session flow perfectly. Totally recommended!

Great experience and a peace of mind. Everything was organized by Pure Studio. I travelled from Canada to get the photoshoot done in Asakusa and Fuji Mountain as background. The crew was very easy to communicate (in Mandarin) with. They sent me the raw photos on the same night to choose from. Love the efficiency! Will definitely recommend.
