Unfortunately the traffic heading to My Fuji was very bad which meant the rest of the day was a crush to keep the schedule. Weather was also against us. My Fuji and the cable car was a white out.

Excellent. Tai-Shi was very courteous and nice. We requested an English speaking driver and his English was very good. He took us to all the sights we requested and even gave us some history and advice.
Definitely would highly recommend to others.

It was a breathless tour, with very limited time in the actual landmarks. Lunch was rushed as we had to wait for our soup/bowl to be cooked. Lovely presentation but we had 30 minutes only at the restaurant.Going into a theme park for lunch caused delays going in and out. Not really well thought from the organizing company. Our tour guide was lovely and he took us by the hand to help us buy or JR pass on our return to Tokyo.

To anyone that hasn't been to Fuji before, whether it be on this tour, any other tour OR just your own, please understand that you might not see the summit at all. This is no fault of the tours company. I've been on two of these tours, I saw a faint outline of Fuji the first time and none of it the second time, that's just the luck of the draw.
My trip was in the summer also, Fuji is far more visible in the winter because the clouds are higher.
As a day out it's very nice. The food and the garden at the restaurant were lovely, the boat ride and the cable car are both very fun, and the wood crafts and souvenirs in Hakone (yosegi zaiku) are some of the most beautiful in Japan in my opinion.
Everything you do on this tour could be done alone with enough pre-planning, but it is nice to be around other English speakers once in a while if you're on a long trip.

Tour was not well organized. We were scheduled to be picked up at Royal Park hotel, then bus didn’t come there. One tour staff member came and got cabs for us to go to the other hotel where the bus parked there. The tour guide lady told us that tour was full that day and there were only 3 seats left for us but not together! Why they couldn’t assign seat number? Some activities were canceled.

After finishing the morning Hato Bus Tour, I joined the second bus tour in the afternoon. The building where the reception was held was a bit hard to find, but I noticed that there were many foreign participants, which made it feel international. The bus was spacious and comfortable. The guide's stories were enjoyable, and although the first Hato Bus Tour overlapped with the Imperial Palace visit, it was a blessing. It was great to see various attractions compactly, including Odaiba, Fuji Television, the National Diet Building, Kasumigaseki, Ginza, and Marunouchi. On the way back, we passed by La Maison du Chocolat, and after finishing lunch in the basement of the reception building, I expressed my gratitude to those who helped us explore. I was able to stop by without any issues. The iced chocolate drink and the limited-time chocolate were delicious, creating wonderful memories. (^ - ^)/
朝のはとバスツアーを終えてお昼より二回目のバスツアーでした。受付があるビルが少し分かりにくかったですが外国人の方々も参加していらしてインターナショナルだな、と思いました。バスはゆったりしていて居心地が良かったです。ガイドさんのお話も楽しくて一回目のはとバスツアーと皇居見学が被ってしまいましたがありがたいことですね。お台場、フジテレビ、国会議事堂、霞ヶ関、銀座、丸の内などコンパクトにいろいろ見て回れるのが良かったです、帰り道にラ・メゾン・デュ・ショコラの前を通ったので終わってお昼を受付のあるビルの地下でいただいたあといろいろ探してくださった方々に感謝しまして、無事に寄れました。アイスチョコレートドリンクと期間限定のチョコが美味しくて素敵な思い出が出来ました。(^-^)/

The trip went very smoothly. Levin our tour guide was a knowledgable , professional and excellent communicator. He is a great asset.
The driver and guide were both excellent. We got to see My Fuji despite cloud cover. Levin and the driver saw an opportunity to view the mount and took it. If we waited for the "normal" stop we would have missed the view ( like the majority of other tours).
The lunch that was provided at the Ninja village was great. There was plenty of local food and the service was very good.
The trips to the 5 lakes was excellent. The flight simulator was also a real hoot.
Overall the organisation and events were excellent. A great experience.
Thank you for excellent review!
We hope your whole experience in Japan to be an unforgettable one!

My family (3 adults, 2 children) had an incredible time during this tour which was individualized for us based on our requests and preferences. Our guide Takashi was extremely knowledgeable, spoke excellent English and taught us so much about not only Mt. Fuji but Japan and Japanese culture. Additionally, Takashi’s broad international knowledge and understanding provided an added perspective and important context on Japan’s place globally today. Our driver Toshi was also excellent and entertaining and because of his understanding of weather patterns on the mountain, we made 2 critical stops along the way that allowed us to see the peak despite some poor weather conditions overall. Takashi took us to an incredible restaurant for lunch, a meal that all of us enjoyed and none of us will forget. An incredible trip overall which was made even better by the connection we made with our guide Takashi. On a personal note, I left my phone in the vehicle and Takashi & Toshi ensured that it was returned to me the same evening! It was much appreciated! I would highly recommend this private tour and ask for Takashi!
Thank you very much for your excellent review with such detailed description. It is very kind of you. Toshi and I are very pleased to know that we contributed to your family having a good time in Japan. It was our pleasure to have such a lovely family as you as our guest. We also had a wonderful time with you as we really enjoyed discussing various issues relating to Japan, Canada and the rest of the world. I hope that you also enjoyed your travel in Western Japan. Please give our best regards to the rest of the family. All the best wishes. Takashi

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.

Japanese punctuality and attention to detail, all in a very simple and unassuming way. Great experience and very well paced and organized.
We were an eclectic crowd and the guide was even discreet enough to just act surprised when somebody asked her why Japanese “Fuji” water was exported to the United States and never drank by the japanese. I think she confused Fiji water with the water from Mount Fuji. Oh lord!...The guide was marvelous and discrete by saying she did not know....

We've enjoyed hop-on hop-off busses in other cities and decided to give it a try in Tokyo. There are two loops so we decided to do the longer loop (90m) and cone back the next morning for the shorter loop (60m). Your pass is good for 24 hours which is very nice. The bus we were on was not a double decker, but it has a see through roof. Unfortunately it is weathered and dull so you can see ok but it is not good for taking photos. You are given headphones and you plug into a soundtrack that narrates the trip. There are several languages to choose from. This is efficient but not very interesting. The narration directed us to look at things that were not always in our direct line of site, but rather tucked behind other buildings. We really just wanted to go for a ride and not hop off. If we'd gotten off we could see more so basically it is just a bus ride, not really a great tour. We opted not to come back the next day for the second loop.
Thank you for your valuable opinion.
We will strive to provide better services, including tourist information.

The entire tour was rushed not sure why as we couldn't do the ropeway, so you would think we would have had extra time. They added a box to the website showing that it was closed after my group had already booked the tour. We took a cruise through the fog, and it was not on the cool pirate boat described and pictured. The cruise was a waste as well because you couldn't see anything. We also went to the museum which is supposed to provide a great view of Fuji but again we couldn't see anything.

We knew that it was a bus tour, but it was a little cramped compared to other bus tours that we have been part of in Sapporo. I think that is due to that this tour is in Tokyo so more people were on the bus. The tour guide, Irene was very nice and accommodating, despite some rude tour people on the tour bus. As a bit of advice, when you are given a time frame in Japan, you better be punctual or you will be left behind! As we were going to various places, we were on a challenging schedule, so the tour guide let everyone know this at the beginning of the tour, and everyone needs to be respectful of each other's time. Two people did not respect this rule and ended up being left behind at one stop, but made it back to the bus at the next stop, fortunately for them the distance was reachable, but I'm sure had a bit of a walk to catch up. The weather that day did not allow for us to see Mt. Fuji, which was a bummer, but not the fault of the tour guide or the tour experience.

I was excited for my first night cruising, but unfortunately, I was a little late to the meeting time, which caused some concern. I felt relieved by the warm welcome from the captain and the staff. As we set sail, I was immediately moved by the breathtaking views of the sea that I had never seen before! The captain provided detailed and enjoyable explanations about the ship and the plant, and my two daughters in their twenties were very satisfied as well. We also enjoyed the wonderful night view of Yokohama. Thank you very much!

The tour guide is great unfortunately, the tour itself is not exactly how it disclosed. The bus stop for 5 minutes for one spot to view Mt. Fuji but not the best view at all. As we drove by we saw there are few spots that we can see the Mt. Fuji very clear but the bus just driving by very fast. The ropeway was under construction so they skip that part. This tour claims that we’re supposed to go on a pirate ship to tour Ashi Lake instead we just went on a ferry. We were a little disappointed cause it was not how it disclosed.
