Enjoyable Experience!

Reviewed by: Melinda, 2019/09/01

Great day tour to Mt. Fuji and several other attractions. Yukiko was a wonderful tour guide. I really appreciated the history and knowledge she shared about Japan and the sites we visited. I also liked that before stopping at each site she presented a map that provided a basic layout of the site. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes, bring a sweater or jacket for the Mt. Fuji visit and take lots of pictures!

Excellent tour, we took a trip on 27/8/19 and we got to experience Mount Fuji in all it’s glory, Shiraito falls was another highlight of the trip. Our guide Ms. Yuki Koh was so informative, we really learned a lot about the backgrounds/significance of each location and also about Japanese culture and history. Two thumbs up

A well organized tour which we, as couple enjoyed today. Sad that the weather was gloomy and cloudy that we failed to see Fuji-San but nonetheless, we still enjoyed all of these UNESCO heritage sites. Approved!

Amazing trip

Reviewed by: Alexander, 2019/07/11

Me and my two friends were with this trip last week. We had a wonderful experience, and discovered places we might never have encountered ourselves.

The guide was also really friendly with far above standard English, and was very enthusiastic.

The lunch we received in the bus was unfortunately not up to expectation, so for that I would rate it 4/5 stars.

The schedule was on time, and we arrived 20 minutes prior to our timetable.

In all we had a positive experience, and I would recommend people to go in this tour, since it’s not expensive in comparison to other day trips with a guide.

A very easy tour, however not enough free time in each destination.
The lunch we ordered wasn’t nice. Better off purchasing authentic food at each stopping destination.

A really enjoyable day

Reviewed by: Bree, 2019/06/15

Our guide was excellent; knowledgable, interesting and funny. We really liked him. The trip itself was really enjoyable. We weren't lucky with the clouds and couldn't see Fujisan for most of the day, but were lucky enough to catch a glimpse in the afternoon while enjoying delicious ice cream. Driving past the suburbs of Tokyo and out in to the countryside and different towns was really interesting. A great way to see outside of Tokyo even though Fuji was elusive. The view of Fuji when it did come, was stunning.

Great Fuji views all day

Reviewed by: Lisa & Lee, 2019/05/28

My husband and I enjoyed the trip, we had clear skies and could see Fuji from the bus most of the day. Our guide Fuji-San was very knowledgeable. Good variety of stops. The 5th station was really busy, we enjoyed the other stops more. Would have been nice to have more time at the stops but appreciate there was a lot of kms to covering the day.
Good value for money and lots of food options at the stops.

Good overall tour but too little time in each place.

Reviewed by: AMPzini, 2019/05/27

I loved every single place we went to, but it was too many places for the amount of time, it was 40 minutes in each spot so if you want to have time to look around, eat local food (there’s a lot of local delicious snacks), take a picture and maybe go souvenir shopping in each place then 40 minutes is not enough. I would rather the tour leave an hour early or maybe miss one of the places and enjoy it more throughly. Guide was great! Loved her!
Always go to the restroom before the tour, tour places are crowded and you will miss a good amount of quality time if you go in a tour stop. If you don’t have a lunch box included then buy something before the tour, you’ll lose a lot of time figuring out what to eat.

Short but enjoyable experience.

Reviewed by: Miez, 2019/05/27

I took Mt. Fuji 5th Station, Shiraito Falls and Oshino Hakkai Tour from Tokyo / With Ekiben Box Lunch from Veltra. Overall, the experience was satisfactory. The meeting point was easy to find because the instructions were clear and there are people from the travel company who were more than eager to assist their guests. Also, our tour guide was very accommodating and very lively which keeps everyone happy during the entire trip. She even assisted me in checking if the Tokyo Metropolitan was still open after the trip because I wanted to go there. We also had a stop in a place which has an unobstructed view of Mt. Fuji. I think this stop was no included in the itinerary. The most important thing I appreciated about this trip was that they refunded me with half of the amount I paid because originally, I plan to travel together with my sister. Unfortunately, she was not feeling well on the day of the trip so she had to cancel her plan to accompany me in the trip. I informed the travel agency in less than an hour before the scheduled trip and I wasn’t expecting any refund because I cancelled in less than an hour. But, to my surprise, they refunded me with half of what I paid and the tour guide even gave me the extra box lunch intended for my sister. It was really appreciated.

Great tour!

Reviewed by: Andie, 2019/05/25

We loved the tour to mount fuji. Yukiko (our guide) was funny and very informative. They were amazing and waited for us, as we got lost and arrived a little late to the meeting place.
We booked the trip to a warm day, but be advised, mt fuji has unpredictable weather, and it was full of clouds. We managed to get a couple of shots with the peak, but it was hard. The other spots were also very nice. This was our last day in Japan and so we had already seen a lot of shrines and temples, and the time allocated to each spot was just right, as we had a 2h trip back to Tokyo. We do understand that for people whose tour this is the first, it might be a little overwhelming and too short a time. So I think it would be best to book it further along your trip. We booked it only a couple of days prior to the actual tour, and everything went great! The lunch box is a bento box, with local food. We didn't book it, and bought a few sandwiches and took them with us for the tour. For us, this was the best option. You can also buy at each stop, but it may be more expensive, and that may be a reason to run out of time in the visiting spots.

  • Most of your mount fuji photos looked like this. But it's a matter of luck. We would still go on the tour again!

Tour Around Mt. Fuji

Reviewed by: Raul , 2019/05/24

Our main purpose of doing the trip was to see Mt. Fuji up close as do the others in the tour. Unfortunately for all of us, the mountain was enveloped with fogs/cloud from below Station 5 that we could not see anything of Mt. Fuji. A German even spoke for most if not all of us when he requested the bus return to Station 5 when the clouds cleared a little.

Second, the tour buses in Europe mostly has toilets in them. Not for ordinary use but "when necessary only". It should be a must for all tour buses in Japan for a total tourist comfort and ease of mind.

The rest of the tour sites are excellent and the tourist guide spoke excellent english and spoke a lot about Japanese culture and the country as well.

We had the best tour guide! She was absolutely charming and very knowledgeable. The day was beautiful and we got to see magnificent Mt Fuji but were only able to go up to the 4th station. The nearby waterfalls were incredible too. I loved Oshino Hakkai village with the cherry blossoms and amazing views of Mt Fuji. I definitely recommend this tour.
