We went on a privste tour of Mount Fuji in July of 2026. Our tour guide Mattia picked us up in his car that was clean, comfortable and had a working air conditioner. The ride was smooth and he was a great driver. He gave us lots of options for where we were going to go for the day. He ended up having to take alternate routes due to car accidents, which saved us a lot of time. He was very well educated and informative about both the Japan and Mount Fuji. It was a great tour, well worth the price we paid. We thoroughly enjoyed the day.Posted on Google Autorijschool KroonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 💯💯Posted on Google Sandi LamborneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mattia was the best guide I’ve ever had. It was my favorite day in Japan so far. He communicated well about the pick up time and location, was very personable, knowledgeable, and gave us choices of places to see and eat after Mt Fuji that I would never have thought of on my own. He took pictures for us and walked us to every entrance. Even my 13-year-old grandson was impressed.Posted on Google David GranadosTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Incredible tour guide!! Planned out our entire day and our guide was very knowledgeable! Made our trip entirely! Great work Anthony!
