Mt. Fuji Tour with Lake Ashi Cruise and Ropeway Ride from Asakusa or Ginza
Overall Rating
4.29
Life changing
Reviewed by: Rebecca, 2019/12/27This was an amazing experience with no pressure. Hop on the bus, lay back, and see more of sites than you can ever imagine.
Mt Fuji was breathtaking. Grown adults were frolicking I’m their first ever snow experience. Boat ride was short but worth it. Gondola ride, not for those afraid of heights! But at least I tried.
Wouldn’t change a thing about it!
And ours was the most knowledgeable and funny guide. Her name sounds like “Cumin” as she put it.
Love. Love. Love.

Pleasant experience!
Reviewed by: Eliza, 2019/12/21The reason we chose this company was due to its pick up point. The planning by the tour company was efficient. The tour representative met us at our hotel, Asakusa View Hotel, punctually. We set off on time. However, due to unfavourable weather, we could only reach Station 1 with zero visibility of Mount Fuji. Our guide, Ms Mayumi, was very friendly and shared with us lots of valuable information and history. We opted for no lunch but given a table at the restaurant. Really appreciate that! Ms Mayumi managed to arrange for us to view Mt Fuji on the way to Hakone. We managed to take some pictures of Mt Fuji. The cruise at Lake Ashi was breathtaking. The Ropeway was fine except for the weather.
We took the coach back to Tokyo. The drop off point was at Ginza. Ms Mayumi entertained us with lots of hands on during the journey. She demonstrated wearing kimono and making origami. When we reached Tokyo, Ms Mayumi went the extra mile to explain the places we passed by. Really wonderful of her. She showed us Ginza Station so we could make our way back to the hotel.
I would recommend this tour as the company representatives are very professional.

Amazing Mt Fuji
Reviewed by: Jodie casey, 2019/02/15It was a perfect day we got up to the 4th gate of Mt Fuji our tour guide Nana-san was so full of enthusiasm and made a few changes to our itinerary to give us the best views of the mountain. It was very cold especially up the ropeway in Hakone and we unfortunately couldn’t see because of the fog but the amazing views of Mt Fuji were worth every penny. Seito-SAN our driver did a great job too. Very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating, we also meet a lot of wonderful people from around the world.... definitely take this tour. Arigato

I would not recommend this tour
Reviewed by: JennaR, 2018/12/04I would not recommend this tour. The amount of time spent on Mount Fuji was under 20 minutes. You can do absolutely nothing on the mountain in this time. You would have to pick either to quickly shop (without enough time to look around and decide what you want) or take photos. It is impossible to do both! I wanted to mail a postcard from the post office on Fuji but I barely had enough time to buy the postcard and didn't have the opportunity to mail it (which is all of the fun!). Isn't being on Mount Fuji the highlight of the tour? Why don't you let people spend time there then? The rest of the tour seemed like "filler" activities. Also, it got really cloudy in the afternoon so we saw nothing the rest of the tour. Honestly, my family and I say "skip it." This tour sucks.

Very effective services and very dedicated staff.
Reviewed by: Ka man LEE, 2018/06/22Very effective services overall since i booked online. Japanese staff all speak very good English and helpful. Warm welcome and trying to help out for everything.
The only thing is just too rush to stop in different spots. Can't fully enjoy each part.

Awesome tour
Reviewed by: Belle Alcasid-Palma, 2018/03/01Our Mt Fuji and Hakone tour was awesome. Our tour guide Toshi was outstanding. He spoke good English, was very pleasant and humorous. We enjoyed the tour. Indeed he is the best tour guide in Japan. At first Mt Fuji was too shy. Coming from a country with no snow, my daughter and I just enjoyed whatever the tour offered us, lots of snow. Then at last as we were about to leave, the beautiful Mt Fuji showed her splendore. She is indeed a beautiful sight. We are lucky indeed. I will definitely recommend this tour and give it 5 stars.

Inclement weather didn't spoil our trip!
Reviewed by: Kenn Christopher, 2017/07/26After reading some bad reviews of other tours we chose Veltra and we're not disappointed. Rain and clouds tried to get in the way but just as the tour bus pulled up to our destination the clouds parted to show a beautiful view of Mt Fuji. Our tour guide Kawasakisan kept us entertained and educated throughout the trip. The added view of Mt Fuji from the restaurant where we dined was an added plus. Though disappointed to have not been able to take the rope way up Hakone because of high winds the extended boat ride was a decent second.
Would definitely recommend this Tour especially if you only have one day to get Fuji in!

unforgettable experience
Reviewed by: Sheba Ambulo , 2016/01/18It's our first time to travel in Japan and Mt.Fuji is a must-to-see in our list. It didn't take much to book for a trip since Veltra offers a variety of Mt.Fuji tours and hundreds of tours as well. Veltra did an amazing job. From hotel transfers up to the trip and tour itself, everything went perfectly smooth.No hassles, no fuss....I will use Veltra again on my upcoming trip in Korea come May. Thumbs up!
