Good trip to see Mt Fuji from different views and to experience other local sights at the same time. Our guide YaYa, is very good. She is knowledgeable and good at keeping the group to be on time for all the rides.

I really recommend this tour. Great itinerary, and our guide, Luna, was great and made sure to explain the importance and history of every place we've visited. She was also very friendly and helped with taking photos.

Serina was incredibly thoughtful. Our group came from various places, and only my companion and I, along with another gentleman, spoke Chinese. She would tell us in both Chinese and English where we were going next and where the famous photo spots were, even providing diagrams so we'd know how to get the best shots. Plus, Hakone was very crowded, and we were worried about getting lost. Sometimes, when the main group was ahead, and we got cut off by other groups, she would constantly turn back to check on us. Lastly, I really love Serina's voice; it's so pleasant and gentle. I highly recommend Serina, and I hope to have the chance to join her tour again next time I visit Japan.

​"We had a great experience thanks to Our tour guide, Yang! She was extremely helpful, explained everything clearly, and handled every detail smoothly. Even though Mt. Fuji was hidden, the rest of the scenic stops made the trip completely worth it. We would love to book again!

If you're looking for a day trip to Nikko, you can definitely join this tour. It's convenient and easy. Although the weather wasn't great that day, our guide, Dale, made a great effort to introduce everything and point out the key sights. It was truly simple and safe. I highly recommend Dale and hope to see him again.

Kousei was a great tour guide - friendly, polite, patient and gave us good explanations of the different attractions in both English and Chinese. All attractions were beautiful but I wish we had more time to stop at each place. Lake Ashi cruise was the highlight of the trip. Be aware that the Ropeway tickets are not included and must be paid separately (2,000 yen each) - this wasn't made very clear in the itinerary or inclusions/exclusions.

I'd like to share my experience visiting Mount Fuji. I was quite lucky 😁 to catch a clear day in August when a typhoon was making landfall, allowing me to see the true beauty of Mount Fuji 😍👍✌️. The entire trip was fantastic, and I thoroughly enjoyed myself 🥰. The gift shop offered good quality items at reasonable prices, with no signs of price gouging. The only downside was the heavy traffic on the way there, which caused some delays 😞. However, our tour guide, Eric 👦🏻, was incredibly lively and cheerful, and great at conversation, keeping the atmosphere light and preventing anyone from getting bored. What was most impressive was his ability to observe everyone's mood, knowing exactly when to provide commentary and when to let us relax and take photos. He also promptly noticed and helped resolve any issues 👍👍👍. Throughout the trip, it felt less like he was just "doing his job" and more like he genuinely wanted everyone to have a good time. Overall, it was a truly wonderful 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 trip, and for those still hesitating, just go for it!

Mr. Siddique, is very accomodating, patient, and kind. He always takes good care and great photos. He made our whole trip to Mt Fuji and Hakone memorable. A wonderful birthday gift for my mom and dad. This tour is highly recommended.
