I had a wonderful time at Mount Fuji! It was great to experience the surroundings and see a different, quieter side of Japan. Our tour guide Riz was fantastic and knew all the best spots to take us to for the best pictures and experience. He really listened to what we wanted and made sure to cater the tour to us. Would definitely book again!Posted on Google RKTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We truly loved this tour. We had the best day in Japan. Our guide Jeff lead us to wonderful nature sites on the way to Mt Fuji: the lava cave, the Chureito Pagoda, lake Saiko, lake Kawaguchi. Climbing 398 stairs and the boat ride on the lake were lots of fun for the kid. The view of the mountain from the lake is breathtaking. Jeff knew how to customize this day given the morning was really cloudy so it wasn’t worthed to reach station 5. We have great memories on this trip. Thank you Jeff and Live Nippon!Posted on Google Douglas WalkerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our group of 13 adults (plus one infant) had an amazing time. Not only did we get to witness the beauty of Mount Fuji, we experienced a scenic speed boat ride on one of the surrounding lakes and an amazing meal which included noodles unique to the area. Shish, our guide, was gracious, outgoing, and informative. I highly recommend taking this tour to Mount Fuji, and request Shish as your guide.Posted on Google Michelle Heywood-WalkerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an amazing day trip to Mount Fuji with our guide Shish! He was incredibly accommodating, kept us on schedule without making us feel rushed, and shared so much interesting information about the area. Whenever the clouds shifted and visibility changed, Shish would let us know right away so we could take advantage of the best views. His knowledge, friendliness, and sense of humor made the trip even more enjoyable. He was a pleasure to spend the day with, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. We highly recommend Shish to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable Mount Fuji tour!Posted on Google Jake HeywoodTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
