Mt. Fuji & Hakone Tour from Tokyo with Lake Ashi Cruise & Ropeway Ride

Long day, not sure it’s worth the hassle

Reviewed by: Sylvette

Overall, I suppose the tour delivered alexactly what it said it would. Out your guide, while quite a lovely lady, seemed unsure and somewhat disorganized. She often did not give clear instructions on what to do next.

The day was long, as were the gaps between the activities. I was finished at each location in about half the time, and had to meander for the remaining time. Then, having to drive for an hour to the next activity was quite boring.

The weather was not agreeable on this day, so this may have negatively colored my experience.

Mt. Fuji & Hakone Tour from Tokyo with Lake Ashi Cruise & Ropeway Ride

Great Activities

Reviewed by: CDN Traveler

We had good experience with the tour company. All of the direction were very clear and we didn't have any problem finding our meeting point. Well worth it if this is your first time visiting Japan. It was quite a relaxing day actually. We took the way back to Japan by bus, but it would have been a lot faster with the train. We weren't worried as much because we just slept on the way.

Excellent Tour

Tour was overall good with English speaking Guides. All the activities were good with nice handling. May be bullet train option will be better to choose as we were running quite behind the schedule due to some block on the road...

We hada gret time for this trip. Especially my boy was very happy because it was the first time of seeing snow. The lunch also very nice. Too bad we only can go to2nd station due to the snow and weather. Highly recommend to return Tokyo by Shinkansen because it save much more time.

Mt Fuji Experience

Reviewed by: Erth C4

The tour was really enjoyable and educative. The sceneries were amazing. The tour guide was very kind and accommodating to assist us and extend extra services to his customers.
It was only frustrating that we did not reach the 5th station since the access was closed due to the climate condition. However, the overall experience was great

Good one day trip

Reviewed by: Joseph

Everything was great. The tour guide was pretty good. Bus and the drivers were pretty good. Overall everything was good. Nothing to complain.
Depending on where you are picked up, the pick up can take some time before the tour starts. In my case, it was more than an hour. Just be prepared for this.

Witnessed the wonders of Mt. Fuji

Reviewed by: Isis Clariz Huang

We were very lucky that the weather cooperated and we saw Mt. Fuji!!! I really wanted that picture perfect view and I got it, together with the mountain's cone shaped peak. Our tour guide Yoshi was really good, he even thought us how to make a mountain origami during the long bus ride.

The only thing I did not like is that we were not able to go to Owakudani valley anymore because the Hakone Sky Gondola suddenly stopped its operation for maintenance purposes. It was a good thing they were able to replace it with another similar activity.

All in all it was a good trip! I will definitely book with this tour provider again.

We just came back from Mt. Fuji tour and somehow felt disappointed that we did not get to see the mountain due to foggy weather. However, we still had a good time taking the sky gondola and cruise on Lake Ashi. Our tour guide had been very informative, I would recommend people to do this tour, but not if the weather is foggy/rainy.

Mt Fugi

Reviewed by: Sandy

Long day on bus from Tokyo. Mt Fugi socked in with fog so unable to see any of it. Guide was pretty good but sometimes hard to understand. She had a full bus and the 3 hrs to try to keep people interested. Gondola and boat ride were fun but also fog prevented much views. Ride back on bullet train was fun. Lunch was mediocre.

A new friend in Japan

Reviewed by: Fifi oktini

We, a group of 7 adults, chose the tour having browsed the internet. The review was good and what we experienced was great! Taiji san is knowledgable, helpful and very accomodative. He picked up us at the hotel on time. We discussed and agreed the itinerary, modified one. We added Nenba and Halal Ramen Tokyo to end the day.
Taiji san is a skillful driver. Driving 10 seater Toyota Hiace he skillfully manouvered in very narrow Tokyo streets when we tried to locate Halal Ramen. Taiji san even attended our exhibition the next day. For us, Taiji san is beyond a tour guide, he is our new friend in Japan.
Arigatou gozaimasu Taiji san!

We were picked up at our hotel at the exact time as mentioned. 1st, we went to the Fujisan heritage center, and on the way our tour guide explained us everything! History, roads, emperors and my favorite THE LAST SAMURAI :) 2nd part of our day was the yummy yakiniku lunch and 3rd we went to Gotemba Premium Outlet! (shopped til we dropped haha). It was supposed to be the last part of our tour but our guide (Taiji) was kind enough to drive us around tokyo and the busy streets of Ginza! What a bonus!

Thank you so much for choosing and joining my tour.
I was a little worried if we could be able to see the Mt. Fuji but we finally could see it, Thank you for posting the picture that we were able to shoot at the end of the day.
We had so much for lunch, and it seemed that your bother was very satisfied with the order, I did enjoy myself as well.
I did the Tokyo night sight seeing on our way back to your hotel because It just makes me happy to see you enjoying the places you haven't been yet and who knows if you will have the same chance while your stay in Tokyo.
I also think that I should get THE LAST SAMURAI and add in the DVD box in the car.

Mt. Fuji Tour

Reviewed by: Nyssa

Taiji was our tour guide on this trip just this March 2017. He brought us to a temple, the lake with Mt. Fuji view and Gotemba shopping area. All with considerations on our end. He was very friendly and accommodating, answered questions about the trip.
We had lunch with him and he shared stories with us. He also asked questions about us and he also took our pictures.

He even offered to wait for our shopping time and when we're about to get off, he asked if we have plans for the next day because he's willing to give a city tour. However we do have planned itinerary already so we just thanked him.

He also helped me find my purse which I lost on that day. Sadly, we weren't able to retrieve it.

I recommend him as a very friendlya nd helpful tour guide. He speaks english well and can converse naturally.

Private Mt. Fuji Tour from Tokyo with Arakura Sengen Shrine & Fuji Five Lakes

Taiji Endo is an exceptional guide

Reviewed by: MML

On the morning of our tour, our guide, Taiji was waiting when we exited our hotel lobby. After introductions, Taiji familiarized himself with folding my wife’s wheelchair. Once we were in our seats, we explained that we would prefer not to participate in the hot springs bathing. Taiji accepted this and said we should still see the lakes and towns along the way to Mount Fuji as they are quite remarkable.

Taiji took us to the World Heritage Site Visitor Center where we watched an informative video about Mount Fuji. It was there that my wife noticed photography by Rocky Tanaka. We later learned Taiji and he are friends. At the end of our tour Taiji arranged for us to meet with Mr. Tanaka so we could view his gallery and purchase a piece of his art.

From the Visitor Center, we traveled on to see lakes and ponds which have formed by snow melt from Mount Fuji. Some of the villages along the way also exist only because Mount Fuji is towering in the distance. Mount Fuji is a Religious symbol to the Japanese.
We saw and ate white strawberries for the first time. We saw a traditional Japanese home with a thatch roof that will last for 100+ years. We saw bonsai trees and gardens and shops and fish ponds with giant fish and markets. We ate a traditional Japanese meal in an authentic Japanese restaurant where no one spoke English except for us. The food was DELICIOUS and the portions were HUGE! Then we continued on to the Fifth Station.

Taiji is an exceptional tour guide: He was a very safe and capable driver. Even in the high traffic areas of Tokyo’s interstate, we felt we were in safe hands. His English is impeccable and he is extremely articulate. His manners are first rate and he was professional, observant and intuitive. He has a seemingly unending knowledge of Japanese history and culture.

Thank you so much for giving me such an impressive comment.
You posted actually few days after my birthday and I felt like a gift for having the best comment I've ever had.

I felt like you found me at the right moment and we've had a wonderful day and you finally found your favorite picture of Mount Fuji at the end of the day. It was beautiful one and I'm also telling Mr. Tanaka that I will one day get one of his picture and bring it to my place.
I also learned from you about the shift of power in US from an objective angle and could have a fair understanding witch keeps on helping me every time I'm asked what I think of your new president from US guests.

Everything that took part of the service I did it because I don't think as a part of the job, but I myself enjoy or even love to do it and I appreciate so much that you could keep such good memory of the day.

I really hope that your wife is getting better and we will have the chance to meet again.

Mt Fuji/Hakone and cruise on Lake Ashi

Reviewed by: Laura L.

I have always wanted to see Mt. Fuji and this day tour did not disappoint on the visit. I enjoyed seeing the countryside and also the very impressive Bullet Train on the ride back to Tokyo.
I would skip at all costs the included lunch. It had been sitting out all prepared for some time when we arrived at the restaurant. The fried food was cold and the other parts of the meal were tasteless. It was not worth the money. My advice is pack a sack lunch and eat it outside where the view is pretty. Also, the cruise on Lake Ashi was fair. There were too many people crowding the railing of the boat and it was difficult to see the scenery if you are under 5 foot 5 inches! There were no available seats. This was a very long day trip and it would not be suitable for young children as they would be tired and bored. I am glad i saw Mt. Fuji and experienced the Bullet Train. I could have passed on the lunch and the cruise. My two companions were of the same opinion. One last comment, I felt rushed on this trip as we just made the last cable car ride and there was also a good deal of commotion getting everyone settled at the station where we caught the Bullet Train.
