The guide was very helpful and spoke perfect English. Although I could not see Mt. fuji due to the bad weather, the service was really good and we had yum traditional Japanese lunch. And the last section 'Fuji Airways' was a big surprise, i have never expected it could be that awesome! I think i will definitely join this tour again in a nice weather day^^

This was my first time going to Mt.fuji, we departed from Shinjuku, the meeting place was easy to find (even for someone who doesn't know Japanese). We arrived at the fifth station at around 11:30, the bus was comfortable so I was basically sleeping all the way to Mt. fuji. The weather was really nice, so I could clearly see Mt.fuji, lucky haha! We had an English speaking guide on that day, she is very kind and can speak good English. I am planning to go Mt. fuji again sometime during the autumn, and will definitely join this tour again!!

This tour will offer you loads of opportunities to see Mt. Fuji, and in a clear weather you should be able to enjoy magnificent views. On the day I went the weather was not perfect but still managed to catch a few glimpses of the mountain.
According to our guide we were very lucky to be able to go to the 5th Station, as in winter the road is often closed due to the snow fall. At the 5th station you can admire the panoramic view of the 'Japanese Alps' and of course the top of Fuji itself. There is also a big souvenir shop where you can get some nice gifts or a snack (try Fuji-shaped melon pan!).
After that we were transferred to the restaurant for lunch - it was a Japanese style meal and really delicious! People who didn't book lunch had some free time to eat their own lunch or buy something at the spot (there was a small bakery).
Our next stop was Hakone and a picturesque Ashi lake cruise to the reopeway station. I imagine that on a clear day the view from the ropeway would be amazing, but during our trip we were welcomed by a little snow storm, so we couldn't see much. Mt. Komagatake however was really great, really enjoyed a short hike to the shrine at the top.
The guide was super nice, kept us entertained on the us and provided some interesting information as well.
Overall it was a very nice tour and well organised tour and despite of the fact that the weather was not perfect, it was a nice day out of Tokyo.

We loved it our guide Mr Hiro is amazing he really knows what he is talking about. The bus is comfortable and has wifi. The sight seeing of the mount is great but on the afternoon when you do the cable car is quite difficult to see the mount because it is hiding in the clouds. The food is not amazing but it does the job. I strongly recommend this one day trip. Even on the high way before arriving the views are stunning.

It's our first time to travel in Japan and Mt.Fuji is a must-to-see in our list. It didn't take much to book for a trip since Veltra offers a variety of Mt.Fuji tours and hundreds of tours as well. Veltra did an amazing job. From hotel transfers up to the trip and tour itself, everything went perfectly smooth.No hassles, no fuss....I will use Veltra again on my upcoming trip in Korea come May. Thumbs up!

The guide, Kana-san was superb. She had a pleasant voice, funny and full of knowledge. We had fun and was well taken care of throughout. Lunch was awesome. Mt Fuji is as seen in pictures or even better and breathtaking. This trip was definitely worth the money :)

The weather was amazing. The organisation was even more amazing! The fact that they were so flexible impressed us. We had another unplanned journey to see Fujisan from
Another mountain and it was the best of the best. Hopefully we can do this again with all the family members. Good and impressive food as well.

From the very start of the day right through the very end............it was a exciting and enjoyable day. We got picked up from a Hotel in Tokyo on time and headed off via coach towards Mount Fuji. The tour guide was experienced, knowledgeable and very friendly throughout the day and her English speaking skills were exceptional.

The tour is very organized and timely. They even have seating chart on the bus. The tour guides are great and friendly. When we took it the intended rope way was closed due to strong winds, but we saw another rope way is running. they refunded the portion of the rope way entrance fee. The all you can east yakiniku buffet is good. Gotemba shopping outlet is great. Overall it is a nice tour!

We enjoyed this tour although it was a lot of time on the bus compared to the time off the bus. The guide was quite good although she could provide more information about the region to make the time on the bus pass faster. The luncheon provided was excellent and we really liked the Hakone region.

This daily tour is very sufficient. Managed to go to station 5 at Mount Fuji but abit Rush.
The lunch package is very fulfilling. The variety of traditional Japanese lunch is good.

We caught the amazing view of Mt Fuji, had a wonderful Japanese style lunch, relaxing cruise but foggy Ropeway Hakone ride (not their fault though!). Our tour guide was energetic and very accommodating! A must try tour!!

English of guide should be better. Their should have been a stop at the hot springs, even if the cable car was not in service.

Bus should leave the Bus Terminal in Tokyo one hour earlier to more time at Mt Fuji and Hakone Ropeway.

This tour was awesome. They picked us up at the hotel and after a couple more stops, we had a brief stop at a bus station where another bus took us up to Mt. Fuji. We speak almost no Japanese, but the tour guides we had spoke English well and were able to answer any questions we had.
It takes a while to get to Mt. Fuji from Tokyo (like 2.5 hours), but the tour guide made things interesting by talking about the history of Japan and Mt. Fuji. Would have been nice to have more time at the shops on Mt. Fuji, but I have to give them credit for keeping that many people (from all around the world) on schedule.
After a traditional Japanese lunch (included), we headed out with another tour guide for the forest/cave tour. At this point we split from the original group and joined a smaller group for caving. Again, the tour guide spoke English very well and was super nice/informative.
We would have liked to have seen more of Aokigahara Forest, but it was definitely cool. Super quiet and kind of spooky but more beautiful than anything else. The cave tour was also really neat. It was short but also my first time in a cave so it didn't bother me.
After a full day of exploring, we were given bus tickets and waited for a bus. The bus arrived n time but the ride was long and delayed due to traffic. The bus was not uncomfortable, but if you have a JR Rail pass, I would recommend finding a Shinkansen back to Tokyo to avoid traffic. Everything else on the tour was great!

If you want to spend a whole day driving around in a buss and not seeing much of anyting this is the tour for you. That pretty much summarizes it all.

The day tour to Mt. Fuji was a nice change from the big city. We stayed in a hotel that was not on the pick up list in Tokyo but took the subway over to a hotel that was. The tour company then gave us a taxi to meet up with the rest of the group at the bus. Our tour guide was the best! She spoke very good English and her voice was so pleasant. Overall we were pleased with the tour. Unfortunately we went on the only day out of the week that it was cloudy and misty. So we went to Mt. Fuji but did not get to see Mt. Fuji! We took the bullet train back to Tokyo and that was fairly easy to navigate as well. Really wish we would have done the 2 day tour package but it was completely booked!

Our Mt Fuji tour is the first in our itinerary, we are really looking forward for this tour as we consider this the highlight of our japan adventure... and we never got disapointed... the weather is good thats is why we had a good look of Mt FujI! When it was really cold in Mt Fuji, Mt Komatage was even colder! It was reaaly a wonderful experience! Our tour guide is not very accomodating though.
