Reviews
tour guide coco was the best. she is very informative and was on time. though some of the guests were a bit annoying since they did not adhere to the meeting time we still got the most of the tour. Maple corridor has not yet been full painted for red autumn but there are places which have red and really appreciated the different colors for all at the place.
It was a comfortable tour and best for travelling with a kid. While we did not see Mt. Fuji because of the weather, my son specially loved enjoyed the swan feeding at Lake Yamanaka, and strawberry icecream and strawberry milk at Oshino Hakkai.
we had a fantastic time, highlight of the trip was Mount Fuji step 5 itself with breadth taking views. Our guide and driver Jacob was very friendly and made this trip very comfortable and enjoyable for us.
Our driver & tour guide Jacob arrived promptly & assisted with meet up. the van was neatly presented & clean. the drive to the various locations was smooth & Jacob did well to bring up subjects as we passed. we had a wonderful day visiting all sites & believe it was money well spent! highly recommend if you want a day trip without the fuss.
the arrangement was fantastic. we had a chance to visit few tourist sites!
Our guide was engaging enough and conducted the tour in both Mandarin and English. There were parts where we were not able to comprehend some of his commentary but for us, it was not a major issue. He was good at managing our group of 20 to ensure that all of us kept to the timing of the schedule. Some places felt a bit rushed but that's to be expected when we had to cover them all before the day becomes dark quickly during autumn. Overall a pleasant day trip to Mount Fuji where we were lucky enough to be able to view it before it got covered in clouds and to walk along the lovely Red Maple Leaf corridor.
A great day trip at a reasonable price. The tour guide, Coco, is professional and fluent in Japanese, English, and Mandarin, making it easier for tour groups to understand the relevant content. I would participate again.
we love it so much! it was the highlight of our Japan trip. We were able to see different vibrant colors of leaves, as well as the clear view of Mt. Fuji! Tour Guide Li Qinghai made it very special, he was so accommodating and friendly. His detailed explanations for each and every destination made us appreciate the place even more.
From the first to the fifth station, the cool temperature makes people forget the torment of the hot summer. The blue spring water of Oshino Hakkai cools down and quenches thirst. The swans in Yamanakako Village swim leisurely in the lake, which is like a fairyland. The lavender in Oishi Park is so charming that people will not want to leave. The sweet taste of lavender ice cream makes people want to revisit the old place.
My Mount Fuji day trip was good, and a big shout-out to our guide! Finally I took a lot of pics with Fuji after all day it was covered by clouds. Our guide really knew their stuff about the mountain and Japanese culture, sharing cool facts without overdoing it. They kept us on track and made sure we saw everything important. What I really liked was how genuinely enthusiastic he was. Thanks to Mr Tom, I had a truly memorable time at Mount Fuji. Definitely recommend this tour, especially with a guide like ours!
