Things to do in Yamanashi Prefecture

We are newlyweds☺️ On Tuesday, June 30th, we had a wonderful tour with our guide, Lim Yeon, who is like a daughter-in-law from Korea💕 There's a reason why Klook has so many positive reviews~~ It was such a fulfilling tour that the cost was absolutely worth it! Even though the weather was very cloudy, the scenery and sights were beautiful in a way you can't see in Tokyo☁️🤍 We were amazed by Guide Lim Yeon's passion, as she enthusiastically took photos for us at every stop on the tour! She even taught us how to pose for pictures, and she kept taking jump shots in front of the convenience store until we got the perfect one~! It was a tour where everyone, including couples, families, and friends, laughed and had a great time!! 🤭❣️Food Recommendations❣️The ice cream on the second floor of the cafes with a view of Mount Fuji is overwhelmingly delicious🍦❤️Lunch and souvenir shopping are optional and at your discretion~ My husband and I decided to try the unagi don (grilled eel over rice) and wagyu beef at the restaurant, and the unagi don was delicious and not at all greasy until the last bite! The wagyu beef was of excellent quality. Please note that portions in Japan tend to be smaller. We appreciated the guide's tip to grill kimchi with the meat😄 (The price is 3,000 yen including tax). Other menu items are available for 1,500 yen. It was great to be able to eat plenty of rice, kimchi, bean sprouts, and soup for free at the bar👍🏻 There's a souvenir shop on the first floor, and it's definitely cheaper than other places! The iced green tea and Shine Muscat jelly recommended by the guide are truly delicious, I highly recommend them😋 Also, try the sliced apples and peaches from the fruit stand🍎🍑 They were delicious as a snack! The dango🍡 was also savory and chewy, and very tasty😙 While personal preferences may vary, I'm writing this long review hoping it helps other Koreans~! It's a good idea to bring a hat, parasol, and water due to the strong UV rays🤗 If we visit Tokyo again, I'd love to contact Guide Lim Yeon personally for another tour😄😃

We joined the Mt. Fuji one-day tour with Christy as our tour guide. Although the weather was cloudy and we unfortunately could not see Mt. Fuji clearly, we still had a very enjoyable experience overall. Christy was very friendly, helpful, and well-organized throughout the trip. She gave clear instructions, helped the group stay on schedule, and made the tour feel comfortable and smooth. The places we visited were still beautiful, especially the nature views, Oshino Hakkai area, and the scenic surroundings near Mt. Fuji. The food was also good, and the whole trip was pleasant for our family. We understand that the weather is beyond anyone’s control, and we really appreciate Christy’s effort to make the tour enjoyable despite the cloudy conditions. Thank you, Christy, for your kindness and great service. We would happily recommend this tour.

Even though Mt. Fuji didn’t show herself today because of the weather, we still had such an enjoyable and memorable trip. Our driver, Xiao Quan, was incredibly helpful from start to finish. He guided us to the best spots, gave clear directions on where to go, and pointed out must‑see places that made the day feel complete despite the clouds. We also loved his humor — his jokes kept the mood light and fun throughout the tour. And the rice snacks he shared with us at the end were so delicious, exactly what we needed after a long day of exploring. Xiao Quan’s kindness, attentiveness, and great energy truly made the experience worthwhile. We highly recommend this tour, and especially him, to anyone visiting the area.

Best Guide Won Yang!!!!! Hakone & Mt. Fuji One-Day Tour Review 🗻 (feat. The Best Guide Ever) As the highlight of my Tokyo trip, I went on a Hakone & Mt. Fuji one-day tour. It was the most memorable day of this trip, and at the heart of it was our incredibly kind guide, Won Yang!!! From the early morning meeting point in Shinjuku, our guide greeted each person with a bright smile and took care of us. On the bus ride, they explained the history of Mt. Fuji and various sights and information about Hakone, so there was never a dull moment. It wasn't just about guiding us to places; they also thoughtfully provided detailed information in advance, like the best times to use the restroom and how long until the next activity, which made us feel very comfortable. The itinerary was packed, including a Hakone cruise and a hot spring village, making me wonder how it was possible to fit so much into one day. Yet, the guide's expertise ensured the schedule was well-distributed so we didn't feel tired. What was most impressive was their attitude towards people. They patiently waited for the elderly members of our group to match their walking pace and answered even small questions with a smile, never showing any sign of annoyance. On the way back, despite what must have been a tiring day, their bright voice and dedication to getting us back safely felt truly sincere. It made me realize how much meeting a good guide can transform the quality of a trip. If you're considering a Hakone & Mt. Fuji tour, I highly, highly recommend Guide Won Yang. To our guide who led us today, thanks to you, it was an unforgettable day. Thank you so much, and please stay healthy! 🙏🗻🎈❤️💓💖💕😄😄

Great experience! Laner Jin was an awesome tour guide, very knowledgable and helpful when we had questions! We got lucky with the weather today and Mt. Fuji showed herself to us a few times! She was playing hide and seek with the clouds but we were able to get a few pics with her. We also were able to pick up some souvenirs and even brought back some water straight from Mt. Fuji! The Gotemba Premium Outlets was a plus and we got to kill two birds with one stone with this day trip! Good stores and really good deals! Would definitely recommend if you want to sightsee and shop!

It was a well executed and organized tour by Tommy. Fuji san hid behind the clouds but it was still an enjoyable day trip to the Japan countryside. That fresh and whole peach smoothie drink from one of farmer shops on the way to Chureito Pagoda was awesome.

highly recommended!!!! we booked a tour bus before this but we were not satisfied and was always in a rush. so we booked this private tour instead. paying more for your own time is worth it. we were 4 in our group so we divided it.

Thank you so much, Zoe, for making our one day Mount Fuji trip so memorable! Even though the weather wasn’t pleasing, your incredible energy kept us entertained throughout the entire journey. You truly went above and beyond to make the day special. Thank you also for the lovely little present, it was such a sweet and thoughtful gesture that we will always cherish. You are a truly wonderful tour guide! 非常感谢你，Zoe！因为有你，我们的富士山一日游才会如此难忘。虽然天气不尽如人意，但你充满活力的讲解和互动让大家一路上都特别开心。真的很感谢你为了让我们的行程更精彩而付出的努力。还有，谢谢你送的小礼物，真的很贴心、很温暖。你是一位超级棒的导游！

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.
