It was very well organised. Out tour guide - Mici was incredible. Knowledgeable, willing to give tips, polite.

Clearly a must do on a non foggy day. Check the weather day prior if fog or rain ongoing would do something else in the city. Otherwise go for it , pictures from top of temple unforgettable. There is a 30 minute hike to top of mountain…… make sure u have time.

This tour took us to various locations around Mt Fuji. These were fun, but sadly Fuji itself was hidden from view as it was an overcast day. Remember to take the weather into account if you take this tour.

Gave 5 stars even though I didn’t actually see what I wanted to see on the tour, which was Mount Fuji, due to the weather. I took a 50-50 chance and it was not in my favor as it was a very cloudy day. But the guide was fantastic. She had lots of historical information during the bus ride and kept us engaged. She did a great job keeping us on schedule. I would highly recommend going on this tour in the spring time or early October to see Mount Fuji.

Great tour, Ayami was a very good guide, spoke well English and helpful. Unfortunately it was cloudy we didn’t see Mount Fuji but still had a great day! The food was wonderful. Only wish we had more time at every stop. I highly recommend this tour!

It was great sight seeing. Because of cloudy weather, didn't get to see Mt Fuji. That was my only reason taking this trip. I was some what disappointed. But get to see the mountains and views.

It was a great tour and our host was so funny. Be aware this tour does not take you right up to the base of Mt Fuji but you get a lots of picturesque spots to take of Mt Fuji. We were lucky that we had a very clear day and saw Mt Fuji

This was an amazing tour, especially as a solo traveler. I booked my ticket with lunch included, and the meal was excellent. Just a heads-up—once you get to the park, be prepared to climb the stairs. There can be a long line for the perfect mountain photo, but it’s worth the wait for that breathtaking view I heard. I made it to the top and didn't have enough time to wait.
