Things to do in Otsu

The tour was a great experience! It only took 1.5 hr from Osaka. The view from the top of the mountain was spectacular, the main terrace and cafe 360 are great places to take photos and relax. Our kids had fun playing in the snow and sled. Riding the chairlift was exciting too. Our tour guide Lully was friendly and helpful.

I love the scenery there! thx klook, made my trip smooth and simplified the rental and travel process. highly recommended :)

Experience: First time skiing ⛷️ Challenged myself with two skis, my friend chose a snowboard, but surprisingly the same instructor taught both 🤣 Ski equipment: Absolutely must buy ——— ski gloves 🧤🧤 Helmets and ski goggles can be rented on-site Tour guide: This time our tour guide was Mia, she proactively contacted us beforehand to confirm the meeting location and time, very friendly! Safety: I don't know why the first pair of skis I rented didn't fit, and the second pair I exchanged for were easy to detach from the ski boots (huh). If possible, I still recommend paying special attention when renting... Oh oh oh right! The instructor we were paired with this time taught using a "feeling-based" approach, and because it was a group class, one-on-one explanations weren't possible. Later, the tour guide Mia spent extra time guiding me step-by-step, which helped me finally get the feeling of successfully gliding 🥹🥹🥹🥹 Best MVP of this experience ⭐️⭐️🌟🌟 Scenery: There's a photo spot (?) behind the cabin that looks like a mirror of the sky 🤣

Really enjoyed this Mount Fuji day tour! The itinerary was smooth and we got to visit so many beautiful spots in one day. Everything was well planned and easy to follow, perfect if you want a stress-free trip from Tokyo. Our tour guide Dana was great — friendly, helpful, and always checking on everyone. She explained things clearly and kept the tour moving at a comfortable pace. Thanks to her, the whole trip felt relaxed and enjoyable. Definitely recommend this tour if you want a fun and easy way to see Mount Fuji! 🗻😊

This is a meaningful tour that visits four locations: Shirahige Shrine, Sanzen-in Temple, Mangetsuji Temple, and La Collina. I chose it to see Shiga Prefecture, a lesser-known area in the Kinki region, and I was happy to see the large and magnificent Lake Biwa. Sanzen-in Temple, which was included as a substitute for the Lake Biwa Observatory in the winter season, was unfortunately a temple located in Kyoto Prefecture. Personally, I think it would be better if the schedule only included Shiga Prefecture's attractions, excluding Sanzen-in Temple. It seems like the Shiga Prefecture tour needs an image upgrade. Unfortunately, due to the old bus (18 seats) being fully booked with no empty seats, you have to endure the discomfort of a long journey if you end up in a bad seat.

Mt Fuji is a very crowded place, popular with tourists and residents alike. But we were able to arrive at our destinations before crowds began to gather tremendously. Pickup was just in time and our tour guide was fluent, very friendly, and was able to talk to with us very easily. The time to get to each stop was perfect despite the said distance and each location had something different in store which was enjoyable for everyone. Our tour guide had some very useful tips for where and when to visit different places that we’ve never heard of before. Each destination allowed us to learn more of the Japanese culture, tips and tricks, hotspots, and places for the family to get away. Overall, it was a very pleasant time and I’d highly recommend this to anyone who’d like to partake in a private tour around Mt Fuji.

Guide is Sung Min who is very friendly and nice and gave good info, and his English is quite good. As I have read from other reviews about the artificial snow being a bit rough, I know what to expect. We were very lucky that it really snowed lightly in and off when we visited on 15 Dec morning so there was indeed real snow. It is a good day trip with sufficient time at snow park and onsen town. we chose to take only sled rides and it was enough for us to keep occupied. but we did hear good comments from another family who took ski lessons. we enjoyed the free foot bath and tried some snacks at Onsen town. time allocated was sufficient for both activities. would have liked to visit Kobe premium outlet but there is no such option for the period we travel.

The view of Mount Fuji was just so ethereal! The time was not that really tight so we still could enjoy the view with a lot of satisfication. Seki was really nice and helpful in guiding us during the tour! 🧡
