    Very nice outing in complete safety, with a very friendly guide (Laner Jin) who explained the day very well. Plan to do the "Onsen" activity in the afternoon, a truly immersive Japanese experience!

    Thank you very much for the whole organisation. I appreciated the fact that you contacted me by whatsapp one day before. We loved the stops and all the places we visited. We would appreciate a bit more of guide information from your part concerning the places we visited. We would appreciate to stop for lunch in a better location, there were some not far.

    Our tour guides were friendly and helpful. They spoke English, Japanese, and Chinese well. They provided background information about the sites we visited and gave us the freedom to explore independently. The driver helped us to feel safe in our trip there and back.

    Laila, our guide, clearly wanted to make our trip to Mount Fuji something to remember. She was very well organised and communicative. When I felt car sick, she asked the driver and arranged for me to sit in the front. But from the description of the tour we expected to get some information about the area, as it was sold as a "guided tour", but we did not get that unfortunately. We were let out of the bus at the designated stops to explore for ourselves. Despite this, we had a really nice experience. The time to explore at the stops could have been a bit longer (maybe 1 hr 15 minutes instead of 1 hour), but we appreciated that we went back relatively early and got back in time.

    It is a value for money experience, the guide was very good, the excursion includes multiple beautiful places to take pictures and appreciate the scenery. The only reason why I don't give it 5 stars is because the driver was driving a bit dangerous and the food was slightly cold. 100% recommended to have Damon Guo as a guide, very good guide with a friendly, patient and funny personality.
  • Mt. Fuji and the Fuji Five Lakes

    Kickstart your adventurous day away from the bustling Tokyo cityscape with a convenient pick-up at either JR Marunouchi, Tokyo Station or SMBC Bank, Shinjuku-Nishiguchi. Your expert guide, fluent in English, will take you to Mt. Fuji area. As the journey unfolds, you'll ascend to the mountain's 5th station, each turn revealing a different aspect of Fuji's majestic beauty. Whether it’s a blushing cherry blossom spectacle or a vibrant autumn foliage display, the mountain's seasonal transformations are sure to captivate you.

    Lake Kawaguchi and Lake Yamanaka

    Post the mountain's visual treat, the tour heads to Lake Kawaguchi, the largest of the renowned Fuji Five Lakes. Known for its mirror-like water reflecting an unobstructed view of Mt. Fuji, the lake is a photographer's paradise. Boat rides, cultural sites, and scenic walks along the shore, subtly narrate the tales of the lake's deep-rooted heritage. The tour's final stop is at the highest of the Fuji Five Lakes, Lake Yamanaka. The lake, also known as 'Swan Lake', offers you a dip into natural hot springs while you bask in the picturesque views of Mt. Fuji and the distant Mt. Hakone. Interestingly, the name 'Swan Lake' originates from the swans seeking warmth during the colder months. The winter also witnesses the awe-inspiring 'Swan Lake' ice sculpture festival, a sight that’s not to be missed. The entire journey is made comfortable and hassle-free with air-conditioned transport, ensuring an unforgettable exploration of Japan's scenic and cultural marvels.
