We had an amazing time during our private tour to Mount Fuji and Hakone. Ali was our driver and guide. He did an excellent job and was very friendly. He took us to all the beautiful places in the area. He drove us to a small town on the side of Mount Fuji where the view was clear and we took beautiful pictures.
