The weather wasn't very good, but the Nepali guide was very kind and pleasant. We were the only Japanese couple, but the other foreign travelers were also nice, making for a pleasant day. It was a very good trip, and although it was reasonable, it exceeded our expectations. Thank you to the Nepali guide, whose name I forgot.天気はあまり良くなかったが、ネパール人のガイドさんが、とても親切で気持ちよい人でした。日本人は私たち夫婦だけでしたが、他の外国の人たちも雰囲気が良く、気持ちよい一日でした。リーズナブルなのにとても良い旅でした。ネパール人のガイドさん、名前は忘れましたが、ありがとうございました。

Everyone else was a foreign tourist, but the male guide from Nepal spoke English and Japanese very well with a smile, and I had a great time. This is the most popular tour to see Mount Fuji, which represents Japan, from various angles, so there were a lot of people everywhere we went.自分以外は外国人観光客でしたが、ネパール人ガイドの男性が英語も日本語も笑顔で上手に親切に話してくださりとても楽しめました。日本を代表する富士山を色んな角度から観光する一番人気のツアーなので行く先々めちゃくちゃ人が多かったです。

I'm in the tour guide business in Hawaii, and I thought my tour guide Steven did a very good job. He spoke in English and in Chinese, which I thought was awesome! It was a very long day, but well worth it. I will use some of the actions that Steven did during my tour when I get back to work. Please tell Steven that I said thank you for a great day. The Mt. Fuji cake was delicious; get the hot drink in the can and use it to try to keep warm.I’m in the tour guide business in Hawaii and I thought my tour guide Steven did a very good job.

The time allocation for sightseeing was rushed. There wasn't enough information provided regarding lunch. After having a meal at Oshino Hakkai, there was hardly any time left for sightseeing.観光する時間配分が慌ただしい。

I participated in a day trip to Mount Fuji on April 29th. I felt it was great to be able to efficiently sightsee within a limited time. My wife and I were the only Japanese participants, but our conductor, Mr. Zhang Yu, was always polite and provided clear explanations, for which I am grateful. I wish you continued success in the future.４月29日の富士山日帰り旅行に参加いたしました。

I arrived 30 minutes early.
There are many flags from various companies.
I can't find the flag for "VELTRA" that I signed up for, and I'm starting to feel anxious.
Then I received a call from someone holding an "EasyGo" flag.
When I got on the bus, it had a display for "FJONE."
Is this the right bus?????
I thought it would be an English tour guide, but I also received a Japanese tour guide just for the two of us Japanese people.
Thank you very much; it was fun!30分前に着きました

It was a tour that covered all the places I wanted to visit at Mount Fuji, but since it was aimed at foreign tourists, I hesitated until the last minute. However, since the guide spoke Japanese, I had no worries. I think it's a very cost-effective tour!富士山で行きたところが全て網羅されたツアーでしたが、外国人向けツアーとのことで直前まで躊躇していましたが、ガイドさんが日本語を話せたため、心配はありませんでした。とてもコスパ良いツアーだと思います！

Since it was a three-day weekend, all the spots were extremely crowded, so I thought my stay would be short, but I believe the cost performance is good if I can visit various places at this price.

Most of the time, it was in English and Chinese, but I was helped because they spoke to me in Japanese. A friend from Thailand was visiting, so I was able to translate from Japanese to Thai and convey the information.

Thank you very much.三連休ということもあり、どこのスポットも大混雑だったので、滞在時間が短いとも思いましたが、このお値段で色々まわれるならコスパは良いと思いました。

基本、英語と中国語でしたが、日本語で話しかけて下さったので、助かりました。
タイから友人が来ていたので、日本語からタイ語に訳して伝えることが出来ました。

The explanations during the car ride were mainly in English and Chinese, but he also conveyed important points in Japanese, so we had a completely enjoyable day without any difficulties. Thank you very much.今回はネパール人のガイドさんでした。

As expected from the pre-reviews, this tour was mostly filled with foreigners. There were only three groups of Japanese people, including us. However, the tour conductor was half-Japanese and half-Chinese, and spoke to us in Japanese, which was reassuring.

Due to the weather, we couldn't go to the fifth station of Mount Fuji in the morning, so our first stop was Asama Park. After that, we took photos at the Nishikawa Clock Shop and headed to Lake Kawaguchi.

Lake Kawaguchi was beautiful. After that, the weather improved, and we were able to go to the fifth station, which was my long-awaited dream. It was cold, but I was truly moved. At Oshino Hakkai, we had houtou and were very satisfied!

It was my first time seeing Mount Fuji, and I was surprised at how beautiful it looked even from the bus on the way there. It was truly a great tour, and I felt a bit guilty for how inexpensive it was. It was a wonderful experience. 前評判通りほぼ外国人しかいないツアーです。ウチ含め日本人は3組だけでした。けどツアーコンダクターの方は日中ハーフの方で日本語で話してくださったので安心でした。
朝の時点で天候のため富士山五合目が無理で、1発目が浅間公園でした。その後日川時計店で写真を撮り、河口湖へ。抹茶に興味がないと言ったら自由に散策してて良いですよとのこと。
河口湖綺麗でした。
その後は天候が良くなり５合目いけることになり、念願の富士山５合目にいけました。寒かったけど本当に感涙です。忍野八海ではほうとう食べて大満足！

I want to see the beautiful Mount Fuji. I would like to go to the 5th station of Mount Fuji. I want to take pictures of Mount Fuji from Oshino Hakkai. There are often photos of the five-story pagoda and Mount Fuji, and I want to see what that place is like and take pictures there too. The photos from Hikawa Clock Shop are also famous. I wanted to see that as well. I enjoyed all of these experiences. The guide and the driver were very kind, and it felt great.きれいな富士山を見たい。富士山5合目まで行ってみたい。忍野八海からの富士山の写真が撮りたい。よく五重の塔と富士山の写真がありますがどんなところなのか見てみたいし写真も撮ってみたい。日川時計店からの写真も有名ですね。そこも見てみたかったです。これら全部楽しめました。ガイドの人も運転手さんもとても親切で気持ちよかったです。

While the primary language in the vehicle was English, she kindly spoke to us in Japanese about various topics, and she was a friendly and wonderful person.

I was a bit concerned that the itinerary might be too busy and whether my always-hungry son would have time to eat, but the schedule was perfectly arranged.

This was my first time participating in this tour. The tour guide and the driver were very friendly, and I was able to spend a meaningful time. Thank you very much. Since it was a multinational group, there was a bit of a relaxed attitude towards time; I heard that habitual latecomers might be left behind. It made me laugh. When you come to Japan, it's basic to follow Japanese rules.こちらのツアーははじめての参加でした。添乗員さん、運転手さんとても気さくで有意義な時間を過ごす事が出来ました有難うございました。多国籍と言うことで時間に少々ルーズ、集合時間に遅れる常習犯は置いて行かれる事があるとか
