We were 5 people in this tour.
Here are the good points of tour:
1. The tourguide was very passionate and friendly.
2. Two drivers drove safely
3. The lunch was good
Here are the bad points:
1. The tour guide talked too much, continuously from Tokyo to Fuji mt. All the bus really need the time to rest and time to talk to our friends.
2. No time for seeing the moutain. From tokyo to Fuji mt: there were 3 times the bus stop in a place for toilet. Everytime, about over 15 minutes including lunch time. But the time at the 5th grade of the mt was only 8 minutes. We needed more time there
3. We didnt see even the shape of Fuji mt
We had day just staying in the bus from 7 am to 9pm. It was waste of time and money. This tour was for nothing!

We were lucky that Fuji revealed itself but unlucky with wet weather after that. But this was a good trip and made interesting by our guide Hiro. He had information on the destinations but also on all the places we passed and visited. Highly recommended

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.

After reading some bad reviews of other tours we chose Veltra and we're not disappointed. Rain and clouds tried to get in the way but just as the tour bus pulled up to our destination the clouds parted to show a beautiful view of Mt Fuji. Our tour guide Kawasakisan kept us entertained and educated throughout the trip. The added view of Mt Fuji from the restaurant where we dined was an added plus. Though disappointed to have not been able to take the rope way up Hakone because of high winds the extended boat ride was a decent second.
Would definitely recommend this Tour especially if you only have one day to get Fuji in!

What really made this trip great was the guide Motoko. She was fantastic. She talked the entire time during the bus ride and taught us so much. When she was not explaining history or culture she was giving origami lessons! Not only was she friendly and easy to understand but she willingly answered all of our questions. It would've been better if we could have stayed on Mount Fuji for longer. The boat ride was very short and unfortunately when we arrived on top of the second mountain we were under clouds but that is not the tour's fault.

The tour ran late because we were met with traffic en route to the expressway (was asleep for most of that) and we arrived at 5th station past 1pm.
We were given 30mins to explore the area. Got a free bell, bought souvenirs and took lots of tourist-y photos! It was fortunately a very clear day (lucky us). Wish we could've spent more time here but we were already off the itinerary so we couldn't stay longer.
We then had lunch at a restaurant beside Lake Kawaguchi. I think we were supposed to go to Hakone for the boat ride, but we had it here instead. Since the lake was just at the foot of Mt Fuji, the boat ride gave us the perfect opportunity to capture more picturesque shots of the mountain. We had the cable car ride here too.
The bus still passed by Hakone but it was already nightfall and everything was closed so there wasn't much to see. We had to make our way back to Tokyo via shikansen (which I really enjoyed because it only took us a third of the time spent traveling by bus!)
I guess shared tours aren't really for me because I can't control the amount of time I get to spend in an area, but it was an overall good experience for a first time visitor to Mt Fuji.

Very relaxed and enjoyable. It's not a hike up the mountain more one for siting back and taking in the view. It all seemed very well organised. Our host on the coach (Yoko) was knowledgeable and informative in the laid-back Japanese style. The lunch was superb in a very nice hotel.

One very long day for us! The travel time from Tokyo to Mt. Fuji is much longer on weekends due to the traffic (so I suggest going on weekdays?). But since it's our first time to see Mt. Fuji up close, we enjoyed it - I guess, 30 minutes seems a little too short for everything that you may want to do there. We haven't got the chance to do the activities in Hakone *No idea how it is there* but, the alternative activities in Lake Kawaguchi (cruise and ropeway) turned out just fine. The meal is not that good, maybe because we had it late and it was prepared long before we arrived - again, because of the traffic. It's very nice that the tour guide is so kind, she really tried to communicate and do favors for guests as much as she could. Overall it was good.

The tour provider didn't foresee the traffic (we were on the road for almost 4 hours) which caused a domino-effect. We arrived in Mt. Fuji 5th Station at around 13:00. The view of Mt. Fuji made up for the long trip, but another cause of delay was some tourists who didn't return to the bus on time. We had late lunch at around 15:00, so that was not cool. It also resulted to change of schedule -- we weren't able to cruise at Lake Ashi and go on a cable car ride at Mt. Komagatake Ropeway. Instead, went on a cruise and ropeway at Kawaguchiko. After that, we went to Hakone-en Park but it was already dark, so we just had a quick stop (restroom break) then proceeded to the shinkansen station. I was disappointed, but at least we had a very nice tour guide who tried her best to appease us with her jokes and trivia. Shinkansen ride back to Tokyo was a fitting way to end a tiring day.

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.
