We were a group of 4 from Canada. Petteri was an awesome guide. He was knowledgeable, suggesting excellent changes to our original itinerary. We stopped at morw than 8 locations including many viewing spots of Mount Fuji, a number of the the Fuji lakes, 3 shrines, and a winery. It was a complete day.Posted on Tess BenephyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wonderful for tour of Mt Fuji with our driver, Petteri, taking us to some awesome spots! Would totally recommend them.Posted on Kristin FulluTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a lovely time with our amazing tour guide Shish! Our trip to Tokyo lasted for one week, and with lots to see it was very relaxing for our group of 12 to hand all planning and the structure of the day over to someone else. We didn't pick any specific route or sights we wished to see in advance, but Shish's recommendations fit our group very well😍. He was considerate and exceeded all expectations. I would definetly splurge on a private trip as it made everything so easy. If I could rate 6 stars, I would.Posted on Per Øygard RyjordTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nice service, good pricesPosted on Emma McBrideTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an absolutely fantastic day trip to mt fuji with our driver Maz. The van was extremely comfortable and Maz was an excellent driver. We visited a local village, ate warm mochi, went to a shrine where Maz explained the history and how we could make an offering, visited a lake and went up a gondola for a stunning view. Maz had a great local lunch recommendation, then we went and got ice cream at a flower farm and then visited one last Monument where the view was spectacular. 10/10 best day we have had in Japan . Thank you Maz!!Posted on Ryan TermuloTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wonderful Mt. Fuji day trip with our tour guide, Mr. Dan. The route was great. Arakurayama Sengen Shrine, Lake Kawaguchiko, and Oshino Hakkai were all beautiful, and the trip was smooth and well paced. What really stood out was the support I received when, on our way to another area, I realized my wallet was no longer with me. We immediately went back to Lake Kawaguchiko, realizing it might have been left there during the boat ride. It had slipped inside the boat due to my own carelessness, and I was extremely worried. Mr. Dan and the boat driver patiently helped search the boat until it was found. Their kindness and willingness to help meant a lot to me, and I will never forget it. I highly recommend this tour for both the scenery and the genuine care and professionalism.Posted on Hoku CTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our tour to Mt. Fuji led by Shish was one of the highlights of our 2 week vacation in Japan. My son wanted to see Mt. Fuji again but this time we wanted to see different things. Our guide Sish helped customize our tour. We visited different sides of Kawaguchiko Lake and Oshino Hakkai. We were fortunate that it was a clear day so that views of Mr. Fuji were amazing. I enjoyed shopping at the Japanese village for omiyage to bring back home and we enjoyed the speed boat ride on the lake. There were 10 of us in our group, 2 of which were children that needed child seats. The vehicle was very clean and comfortable for all of us. I would definitely recommend this tour again and we enjoyed having Sish as our guide. He’s very funny and he took great care of us every step of the way.
