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

Rushed

Reviewed by: Heather

While the trip was good, everything went smoothly and the tour guide was very informative and helpful, it was disappointing to learn we have very little time at each stop. We felt very rushed, including for lunch. I suggest the tour return later, or you are upfront with customers that in order to fit in all of the activities the actual time at each stop is very limited.

Tokyo 1 Day Tour to Tokyo Tower, Meiji Shrine, Sumida River Cruise, and Asakusa

Poor tour guide/agency (grayline)

Reviewed by: William

Dislike the multi dips , guide changing in mid day, and bus changing to max out the margins for the agency, sacrificing the comfort level and experience of the users. Morning guide was really poor as she waited for the return passengers from the shrine at the bus parking area instead of providing some sort of assistance in between the shrine and the bus lot

Mt. Fuji Tour with Lake Ashi Cruise and Ropeway Ride from Shinjuku or Shibuya

First time in Japan

Reviewed by: AdamB

It was the best experience abroad so far to me. From beginning to the end everything was excellent and went as it was said with their promised schedule. Our tour guide was great she informed us not only by sound system but also she used charts and written notes on the large papers sheets to help her messages memorized while she was using quality communicating techniques to help her group stay together and informed well. Bus was very clean and driver did great job along with all route course.

Thank you so much for everything ❤️

Mt. Fuji Tour with Lake Ashi Cruise and Ropeway Ride from Shinjuku or Shibuya

Great experience! Wonderful views! Amazing tour guide!

Reviewed by: J. Brown

The tour guide, May, was wonderful! She kept tabs on everyone very well, always making to have everyone when time to head to a new destination. She was very informative on the bus, telling everyone about how Mt. Fuji was formed and why things are certain ways. She even sang us traditional Japanese song for Mt. Fuji in both English and Japanese.

The experience was great. Definitely add the lunch option! So many choices and you definitely get your money's worth!

The tour bus does have wifi, but it was not super strong. My children were able to play apps, but not watch videos from it. There is no bathroom on the bus, so plan to use it before you get on at each stop (important with younger children).

Mt Fuji Tour from Tokyo with Lake Kawaguchi Cruise and Ropeway Ride

Amazing and well-planned tour!

Reviewed by: Arielle

We were extremely impressed by this tour. It was well-organized and everyone had enough time to experience the itinerary without rushing.

The finer details:

First (and most important): Mount Fuji
- During a clear day, you have many opportunities to see it.
- 5th Station, the Lake Kawaguchi cruise and ropeway all have fantastic views.
- You can buy souvenirs at each stop!

Food
- Lunch was at an amazing restaurant in Fuji-Q Highland. An appetizer, entree, dessert, and coffee/tea are all included.
- You can also explore the surrounding area if you finish eating early!
- You get to have soft serve ice cream at the end of the tour with your pick of interesting flavors.

Efficiency and Comfort
- The bus was very comfortable and there are bathroom breaks during the ride.
- The tour guides (shoutout to Nao-san and David!) were very friendly and knowledgeable. They were fluent in both English and Japanese.
- Despite some traffic, we were pretty much on time for every stop and got back to Shinjuku before 7pm.

I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience Mount Fuji from different viewpoints and have some great food and fun along the way.

French language

The voice in French was recorded with an automatic and robotic voice like Google translate. It was totally unnatural.

Also, the story suddenly stopped when the bus was crossing a new building in order to explain the new building.

Mt. Fuji Tour from Tokyo with Lake Kawaguchi and Oshino Hakkai

Highly Recommend! Brilliant day

Reviewed by: Hannah

Very organised trip, we knew what times of where we had to be the whole day. We had a 50% chance of seeing Mount Fuji and we saw it clear as day it was beautiful.
Because of the temperature we got to see the last of the cherry blossom which just made our whole day!
Lunch was not to our taste but I’m sure if you enjoyed traditional Japanese food it was nice.
Our tour guide was brilliant, she was so helpful and knowledgable.
We really didn’t know what to expect from the day but it exceededed all our expectations, I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone going to japan and wanting to visit Mount Fuji.

Reviewed by: Garry

Excellent tour. Youshi - san was a great tour leader, informative and amusing and spoke excellent English. We were very fortunate to have a clear day to see Mount Fuji and the views were brilliant all day. The lunch was also very good. We enjoyed the sky gondola, the black eggs and the cruise over lake Ashi. Every thing was very punctual and at no point did we feel rushed.We took the option of the bullet train back and Youshi helped us with navigating the station. In all a lovely tour which we thoroughly recommend.

Nikko 1-Day Tour from Tokyo w/ Nikko Toshogu Shrine, Lake Chuzenji & Kegon Falls

Not recommended & disappointing

Reviewed by: Sunil

It’s a long drive just to see one shrine. The whole experience was dimmed by the lack of a good guide. Not informative at all. Repeating the same thing. was not courteous to some of the other passengers who were a bit slow. The tour was all about making up the time, get off the bus, view the place and quickly get back on the road. The guide would not even wait for everyone to get off the bus. Many co travelers were disappointed. We have taken many day tours around the world, this was easily the worst experience.

Mt Fuji Tour, Lunch and Cruise on Lake Ashi

Reviewed by: JohnG

We had a long bus ride to Mt Fuji but were disappointed the clouds came in and covered the mountain. We could only get to Level 2 as there was too much congestion and traffic higher up at Level 4. Our lunch was a wonderful selection of local dishes and the cruise on the Pirate Ship on Lake Ashi was crowded and chilly but fun to be part of.

  • Our first glimpse of Mt Fiji

  • The she was gone and stayed hidde all day

  • At least we were there and got to see it

  • Our interesting and tasty lunch

  • We were luck to drive through streets lined with the cherry trees still in flower

  • Marion always like to make a new friend

  • John with one of the eggs cooked in the hot sulphur springs

Mt. Fuji Tour with Lake Ashi Cruise and Ropeway Ride from Shinjuku or Shibuya

Don't Book with Mt Fuji Tours With Veltra or JTB Sunrise Tours - The send you on tours knowing 100% they cannot deliver the product as advertised

Reviewed by: Kevin

It seems both Veltra and JTB Sunrise Tours think its acceptable to sell a tour called "Mount Fuji Tour" when they know 100% in advance that you will not see Mount Fuji

Our experience was as follows

Book online on the Tuesday Evening
Arrive at check in on Wednesday Morning
At check in ask JTB is everything open will we see Mt Fuji - YES

Get on the bus to depart for Mt Fuji

Tour guide runs through the itinerary exactly as advertised
Station 5 Mt Fuji
Cruise
Lunch
Ropeway
Shinkansen Back

1 hour into the drive - OH! sorry Station 5 is closed due to an avalanche we can only go to station 1 today, you wont see Mt Fuji

When we get to station 1 we ask the roadblock security when was the avalanche - 2 days BEFORE!!! so for 3 days they have been selling tours knowing its closed also knowing it will be several days before the avalanche is cleared

So JTB Knew Mt Fuji will not be seen before they sold the tour to myself and busses full of people who booked in the last 3 days, Veltra say they were not informed by JTB and JTB when asked say they only call for an update at 9am AFTER the bus leaves so you have no option to get off and do something else - convenient timing for them and too late for you, but they all knew 2 days in advance, yet no one takes ownership at either company blaming each other - neither company loose out only the customers

Had I known I would not see anything and be on a bus for several hours at the checkin at Niko Hotel JTB Desk I would have cancelled and got 50% refund and booked another tour for the day and done something more productive with my time

Feel quite cheated as did most of the other people on the same bus

JTB/Veltra snake policy is set so you basically can be sold ANY tour and they have a way to not refund you

DISSAPOINTED - CHEATED - WASTE OF TIME - CHECK BEFORE YOU GET ON THE BUS - REQUEST REFUND

VELTRA

Mt Fuji day trip with hotel pick-up

Reviewed by: Judy

The trip was generally good and was saved from an OK rating by actually seeing Mt Fuji from the bus and the first stop. After that we drove to the other side of the mountain where it was covered by cloud and we didn't see it again all day. (Cloudy weather can't be helped but guide said "we are driving to the other side as it is less crowded".) Everything ran on time but better explanation of how to manage Japanese lunch (our first such experience) would have been appreciated. Cruise on Lake Ashi was picturesque but boat was very crowded with standing room only for some guests.

It was cold on the day of the tour, and there was a bit of wind, but the content of the tour was outstanding! Of course, I got to see the places I wanted, but the guide's explanations were surprisingly interesting and well done, which made the atmosphere on the bus lively. There were also useful trivia points throughout, making the bus drive feel like it went by in no time.

当日は寒くて少し風もありましたが、ツアーの内容は満点以上でした(^^)

We had a free day in Tokyo so decided to book this tour on line before we arrived as was highly recommended by a friend! We weren’t disappointed! Didn’t do a pickup from the hotel we were staying at so we had to jump on the subway to get to the pickup, was easy! Then we were transported to yet another hotel by taxi! Our tour guide Yoshi was brilliant! He covered so much in the full day tour, loved every minute of it! We booked the tour which included the Japanese lunch which was a delicious! Saw all the highlights of Tokyo, even included a boat ride down the river! At the end of the tour the bus dropped us off at the subway as we decided to go to Shibuya before returning to our hotel!

Our tour was fun and enjoyable. We were given ample time to roam around and explore the area. We brought our son with us and he loves the cable car and strawberry picking experience.
