Yamanashi Prefecture

Taiki was my photographer for this photoshoot and he was great! He met me at a kimono rental shop and helped me pick out spots around Mt Fuji for the best photos. I told him what style of photos I liked and he immediately understood. He always made sure I was happy with my photos before moving on to a new location or different area. He even gave me a ride back to the kimono rental shop which I was very thankful for, and I got my photos less than 24 hours later. I would efinitely book this photoshoot specifically Taiki again on my next trip to Japan!

Overall was a very good experience where it started by choosing the hakama with the professional opinions from the staffs. the overall process is quite fluent and efficient. On top of that the outcome was good. The owner’s hospitality is definitely making people feel welcoming. Will recommend to others

I’m a local Japanese and joined this experience with my foreign friend. Making matcha in a retro room and taking photos with Mt. Fuji was amazing. Even as a Japanese, I found it very special!”

Yutaro was one of the best tour guide we’ve ever had. Knowledgeable with the scenic spots and was able to deliver what we’ve expected. He has this favourite ice cream shop that he always talked about and we were able to try which is one of the best ice cream in Japan.

It will be held during ButterBear 🧈🐻collaboration period in the first half of 2026. This is the only place in Japan where you can experience ButterBear, so I highly recommend it. There are also many thrilling rides, and it's the only place in the world where you can enjoy the spectacular view of Mt. Fuji!🗻

Ropeway/cable car starts at 8.30 and it's worth getting there early to beat the long lines caused by tour groups who started arriving around 9.30am. Views as you move up the ropeway were breath taking. A beautiful clear day with spectacular views across the lake and surrounding areas. Once you are at the top there are multiple areas to view and photograph Mt Fuji (and you can never get enough photos of Fujisan can you?). There is also a shrine, tori gates, souvenir shop, toilets, postbox, snacks, ice cream etc. and giant swing= 500 Yen per person , not included in ticket price but great fun! Lots of photo ops and if you want a professional photographer (if you want and extra cost). Great value and i can only imagine what it would look like in spring (blossom time). The great thing about going on this in winter are the crystal clear skies and much greater chance of Fuji 'not being shy'. Recommend with an early start!

We booked this as a family of three. That's our second trip to Japan and wanted some help to get to Lake Kawaguchi and doing sightseeing around Mont Fuji. The guide has been extremely helpful and friendly the whole day. We were lucky to have a clear sky to enjoy the amazing Mt Fuji view. Highly recommended experience.

The tour is very good and the guide (zoe) waa very kind, knowledgeable and shared a lot of inputs during the travel. would definitely recommend all to visit MT Fuji using their services, also the food and the options were. fantastic.

Captain Jack was amazing! He spoke both English and Mandarin (with ocassional Japanese) without missing a beat. 双语切换自如。He also helped to take photos. There was a jam so a lot of places were cut short and we skipped lunch entirely. I think the itinerary might still be a little too rushed even without the jam. But definitely still glad to visit many places in a day! One other comment, at the gathering point in the morning before the tour, it was quite hard to locate the assigned guide in the crowd. Would have been easier if the flag number was given.
