Toshi was a fantastic guide. very well informed and happy to let us know those extra special things.
MtFuji was brilliant (as expected), and the good weather made the day fantastic. The boat trip on Lake Ashi was very good and the view from the top of the Hakone rope way was unbelievable.
A great day

Toshi was a great tour conductor. He was very knowledgeable as well as patient. We enjoyed this tour to Mt. Fuji.
I would suggest that guests should be informed to NOT wear strong perfume for those who have an allergy to strong scents, Thus was the only negative on this tour!

We couldn't even find the meeting point . The directions given were absolutely horrendous. Kept being sent around in circles. This whole trip was a surprise birthday present for my husband and so missing this trip pit a whole dampener on the day. We were both so so upset at having missed this trip.

A worthwhile tour to see Mount Fuji from 5th station! We needed long pants and a jacket/sweater in May because it was cooler. Joe was a wonderful guide, full of good humour. It was lovely to also go to Hakone and have a short cruise to the ropeline. The shinkansen ride back to Town Tokyo was a thrill. The only suggestion I would have is to provide more time at Mt Fuji which I imagine is why most (us included) booked the tour. Still worth it however because of the package of places built into the tour.

We were bleed with perfect weather. I loved all the lessons on the bus shared by our tour guide Summer Berry River covering history, customs, Chinese and Japanese characters, religions, holidays, school life... all with pictures and school books which accompanied the information.
I didn't know we were actually going to be in the mountain, I thought we were going to see it from afar.
The bento box lunch and entertainment was wonderful Tar of the culture.
The view from the gondola ride was phenomenal. Mount Fuji looked like it was floating on a cloud.

We missed the trip as the directions for the meeting point were totally inaccurate. When we did find the place we came across another half dozen people complaining about the lousy directions and people complaining about the poor quality of their tour the previous day! I believe the lack of directions is part of a scam, they refused my refund so I did a chargeback. Avoid, anyone else must be better!.

This was a fantastic tour. Our guide, Masa, was absolutely wonderful. He had a very extensive knowledge of all of the sites we visited and provided lots of very interesting historical facts. We also had to have a last minute change to one aspect of the tour due to poor weather and Masa provided a great alternative. It was a great day - highly recommended
