This day tour to Mt. Fuji and Hakone was quite an adventure as it
allowed us to see a different side of Japan. We were saddened that we
didn't get to see Mt. Fuji due to poor weather conditions. However, the
Shinkansen ride at the end of the day made up for it. Also, our tour
guide Mayumi made our long bus ride very fun and educational by bringing
along props to show us. We would recommend this tour to all our friends
and family.

We were able to see Mt Fugi and travel up to station 5! There was a stop along the way to use the restroom. Dinner was yummy at a beautiful hotel. We just wish it had been Japanese style food- not western- that is why we are IN Japan! We also wish there had been more time devoted at being at the mountain. It was very rushed and so very crowded. SO much time was spent waiting in lines.

The tour was so organized from the hotel pick up and back. We enjoyed the buffet lunch (grill your own style) and the Gotemba outlet. The Mt. FUJI view was so spectacular during that day from the Mt. Hakone and the cruise along the lake asahi!

The whole experience was wonderful, we were staying at the Shinagawa Prince Hotel so it was easy as the main lobby was the pick up point for us, after the pick up we were taken in the coach to the main station where the bUs took us to the ride, although being a weekend the drive was slow due to traffic, we enjoyed with the guide Ann, who spoke excellent English, had a great sense of humour and kept the whole list interesting with insights about the places we would see along the way.
Each and every sight was worth it, a great way to see the place and enjoy the ride back on the bullet train which dropped as back to Shinagawa station straight away.
Highly recommended for any tourist to take this trip with them.
We are happy to hear that you enjoyed our tour and thank you for taking the time to write us a review.
We will be sharing your review with the rest of our company.
Best regards, WALTER

Nice trip with very good guides. Got exactly what was promised with a wonderful view of mount Fugi .only thing is maybe a choice of 5th station instead of the rope way would be nicer. Shopping was good as was the lunch.unlike in most other countries it was so relaxing that the guides are not hinting about their tips,when we gave them. A little present not cash they were so surprised .

The tour guide is very cheerful. She's got a lot of inputs about mt. Fuji and the towns we passed by. She taught us numbers from one to ten in japanese where you can get and absorb right away because of the way she presented it. she also taught us how to make mt fuji art made out of origami paper during the bus ride. The drivers were very good and very efficient even with the long and winding road. It doesn't make my kids dizzy. It was a great and fun experience.

The tour guide (kamiko) took care of the whole tour bus group from the hotel to the bullet train. Pickup was right outside of our hotel and straight to mt. Fuji which was very clear that day! Then to hakone for a cruise on the lake and a cable car up to the too of that mountain to see mt fuji across the lake. Then we were dropped off at the bullet train station with ticket included. The whole day was carefree!

Enjoyable tour, very helpful tour guide who did her best to make sure we got to every place! It was a clear day so we managed to see Mt Fuji (I understand this doesn't always happen). We couldn't go to eat the egg at the volcano because of the earthquake situation. But Hakone was beautiful! Definitely the highlight of my trip to Japan, and my parents enjoyed it too. I would highly recommend this day trip :)

Everything was great on this tour! The tour bus was very comfortable and our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Even though we only went to the 2nd station, I think that was great. We were lucky because we were able to see Fuji clearly as the clouds passed. Then we stopped for lunch, which was prepared and waiting for us when we arrived. The lunch was definitely worth the extra money. Next we arrived at Lake Ashi and rode the pirate ship to the other side of the lake. Great scenery and even a glimpse of Fuji from the lake. We then took the Komagatake ropeway tram. It was very crowded and we probably had to wait an hour to get on the tram. Beautiful views and a short hike to a shrine were waiting at the top. Lastly, we were dropped off at the train station and rode the bullet train back to Tokyo. I would definitely recommend taking the bullet train back because otherwise it would add another 2-3 hours to the day if you take the tour bus back. All in all, everything about this tour was perfect and I would recommend it to anyone.

The food for eat as much as you like which mention on the tours was not a good quality. If you never have Yakiniku before you went on this tour you will never have Yakiniku again. My husband and I have Yakinuku in Tokyo last year but this was completely poor quality. We did not see anyone locally went in there but only for group tour. Unfortunately the weather not so good with foggy. The tour operator decided that the ropeway have to cancel due to safety but still operate the ship. We can't see anything . It should not operate the ship but offer alternative tour. We are all crammed on to the boat like sheep in the farmer lorry! The reason I booked this tour is to see Mount Fuji as we went to summit last year and would like to see him from distance. The tour guide was pleasant. Very disappointed, waste my day and money.

Not anybody fault, but Mount Fuji was 'hiding' when we had this tour, because its cloudy.
A couple of delay happened (the longest because a couple of participants opt to buy their own lunch and its took a long time for the rest to prepare). Perhaps there shd be any warning before for participants, so they are prepared (ie. Bring their own lunch).

Unfortunately the weather was not great, hence we only made it to 1st station.
Managed to catch a glimpse of Mt Fuji from the tour bus when the clouds cleared a little in the afternoon.
Weather was also misty when we were on the Hakone Komagatake Ropeway - hence views were not promising and the cable car was jam packed.
But the tour guide was very good - spoke excellent English and was very helpful catering to > 40 paxes. Ichiban on his service

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.
