Mt. Fuji & Hakone Tour from Tokyo with Lake Ashi Cruise & Ropeway Ride

Disappointing!

Reviewed by: Mary C.

The weather is no one's fault and staff did their best, but the dense fog made seeing anything impossible. We toured area around Mt. Fugi in the fog. The fifth viewing station was closed. We were warned in reservation materials that we might not see the mountain but we didn't expect to be fogged out of every other attraction ( boat ride, lift ) as well. We did see some interesting countryside and a few villages. We also saw a bit of Tokyo as we circled around to pick up other participants at their hotels. We took the bus back, not the train. Train people beat us back to our hotel by about 30 minutes.

Outstanding great tour

Reviewed by: Denise McLennan

The tour was worth every penny. Went above and beyond to get us the view of MT Fuji . The blueberry ice cream at the first stop was to die for . The 3D ride was great and lunch at the ninja village was good . Recommend this tour for everyone.

Very nice tourist! From Australia

Reviewed by: Aussie

It’s was very good experience for all of us who join the tour for the first time and we explore the nice view of Mt. fuji, hakone and lake ashi. We enjoy much during our tour because it was a good weather and the tour guide is very friendly and accommodating. She has a very good english and she keeps on checking us if we all complete during our stops to buy some souvenirs.. the food was great and delicious all japanese food. The money we pay is worth it! No regrets cause we all enjoyed during our tour!! Till next time!

Yoshi San was amazing!

Reviewed by: Enid

The tour was very informative and there were lots of stops included (a lot more than other tours) - we didn't feel rushed at any stop and I loved the option of having a bullet train as a return home option. Our tour guide was Yoshi San - he was so wonderful and had heaps of stories to share about where we were going and Japan on general! He also made us laugh and entertained us along the way....one of the best tour guides we have had! Will definitely be back! Thank you Yoshi San

Good experience

Reviewed by: Ashok

Me and my wife took this trip. It was well organised . Our tour guide spoke English and was funny. Although all the activities listed were covered there was hardly any time to relax and enjoy the moment. Except the boat cruise. The journey itself takes most of the time
So can’t complain much. The lunch was Japanese cusine it was a nice experience.

Amazing Day at Mt Fuji

Reviewed by: Krystelle

What a amazing tour !

We were very fortunate to have a clear day and amazing views of Mt Fuji

Everything on this tour was great, the amount of time we stopped in each place and the traditional lunch was yummy

Perfect tour for those who want to see a lot and the bus ride is comfy

I couldn’t fault our tour guide, he was lovely and funny and entertaining and helped us all take amazing photos. He even switched around the schedule and we got to go to the ropeway instead of the 4D ride thing and at the rope way we got the most incredible pictures of mt Fuji. We were also very fortunate to able to go all the way to fifth station

I would highly recommend this tour

Tokyo 1-Day Private Tour from Yokohama Port with Customizable Itinerary

Review on Private Shore Excursion to Tokyo from Yokohama Port

Reviewed by: Evelyn B

This is the second evaluation sent to me by your company. As written on the first evaluation, the tour went off explicitly well. When our tour guide Ken Takahashi introduced himself to the group @ Yokohama Port, he has this pleasing smile with an excellent diction in English. We have had a quality tour and he explained to us important and interesting highlights of the different era on the Japanese history.
On behalf of the group, we would like to extend our appreciation to Ken Takahashi, tour guide and driver Mr.Higashi san for making our day in Tokyo a memorable one.

Dear Evelyn,

Mt Fuji, Hakone and Lake Asshi, with lunch

Reviewed by: RITA L OSBORN

This was a very long day out.
The mountain was covered in cloud. We were greeted with snow, at the 5th step.
Lots of driving.
Lunch was fair.
It was dull and wet at the lake, which spoiled the experience.
The ride on the rope car was high and fun.

Waiting for others was a pain. We didn't arrive back at our hotel until very late.
A good experience, which looked better on TV.

We saw better views in Shimitzu on another tour, from our cruise ship..

Mt. Fuji & Hakone Tour from Tokyo with Lake Ashi Cruise & Ropeway Ride

Lovely guide, but disappointing tour overall

Reviewed by: Erin

Our family had the disadvantage of traveling in from Tokyo Bay, so our travel either side of this tour was already extended, and that could not be helped by the tour company. However our pick-up was late from the hotel that we had arrived at just before the scheduled pick-up time that had required us to wake our sleeping children which was rather frustrating. It was also raining and cold. We waited for the bus and then travelled about 10 minutes to waste more time transferring to another bus.

The tour company cannot be held accountable for the weather, but the gondolas were not running, the highest viewpoint we could access was No. 2 and for most of the day Mount Fuji was not visible. Our tour guide was lovely and informative and provided lots of information about points of interest other than those listed on the itinerary. The tour company chose a shrine to visit instead of riding the gondolas which was enjoyable.

The lunch was average, the hot pot was nice but the tempura was stone cold when we arrived.

The stopping points felt rushed and most of the day was spent on the bus. We opted for the bus ride home seeing as we were a family of 5 and our rail passes had expired the previous day. Once passengers transferring to the bullet train had been escorted to the station, our bus waited (or wasted) a considerable amount of time waiting for another bus to join us before beginning the long trip home.

Considering we were the last drop off and had to commute back to our hotel after drop off at the designated hotel, all of the delays and waiting around to transfer and join with other tour groups made the day feel wasted. We definitely regret choosing this activity for our last day in Japan.

Mt Fuji, Hakone and Cruise on Lake Ashi

Reviewed by: Will Quek

Overall it was a great day. Our guide, George was great but a single day trip is not enough for Mt Fuji due to the travelling time. We spent full 5 days (excluding 1 day for Mt Fuji and 2 travelling days) in Toyko and there is still much to do with the museums, parks and especially the culture.

If you really want to visit Mt Fuji, I would suggest spending the night to enjoy the magnificient Mt Fuji, onsen and mother nature.

Weather was awful

Reviewed by: Karen

I realize the weather is out of the control of the tour oppotators, however, we can’t be the first tour that experienced bad weather. And it was clear they had no “Plan B” for when that happened and both Kakone and the cruise were cancelled. Likewise, I know I signed that there would be no refund, but what happened to the tickets for the above activities that we didn’t do?
I’m sure this would be a great experience on a sunny day.

Couldn't be happier

Reviewed by: DiJoyce

Endo-San was waiting for us at the appointed time in our hotel, he is truly fluent and an excellent guide and we had a knowledgeable and fun day. The other thing that was memorable was our udon lunch in a small restaurant (inn?) which was both delicious and good value. We ended the wonderful day with 45 minutes in an onsen - my first in an open-air onsen, looking at Mt Fuji. Of course thanks to God who gave us perfect weather and thus a marvellous view of the mountain. I would recommend Endo-San to anyone traveller.

I had a perfect day to visit Mt. Fuji. We got to photograph it from different angles with excellent results. Lunch was OK, but the time spent in Hakone and the cruise were pretty much a waste of time. If you can find a half day (morning) trip to Fuji, I would recommend you take it.

Highly recomended!

Reviewed by: Elena

We really wanted to visit Fuji, and I was looking a way to do it by our selfes.

Then I saw the Veltra tour and I knew that if we went to see all those things by ourselfs, we wouldn't see even half of it.

I was right and I'm realy happy we took the tour.

We saw everything on the list, exept we only went to the 4th stop on Fuji and not to the 5th like it said on the program.
At least we got on the mountain a bit :)

I wish we had more time in the Ninja Vilage. We had the best lunch (the one included in the tour for 2000¥ per person for all you can eat), and we immediately went on the Ninja show for 850¥ (not included in the price of the tour). After that we barelly had the time to visit the gift shop and didn't even strolled through the village it self. I gues we should've hurry with the eating.

All and all we couln't see all that by public transport, and it would've cost a lot more.

Thank you for the tour,
Elena from Skopje, Macedonia.

Long day, not sure it’s worth the hassle

Reviewed by: Sylvette

Overall, I suppose the tour delivered alexactly what it said it would. Out your guide, while quite a lovely lady, seemed unsure and somewhat disorganized. She often did not give clear instructions on what to do next.

The day was long, as were the gaps between the activities. I was finished at each location in about half the time, and had to meander for the remaining time. Then, having to drive for an hour to the next activity was quite boring.

The weather was not agreeable on this day, so this may have negatively colored my experience.
