Tokyo
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....
It was bad raining day.
Did not get chance to go on the Ropeway and to see Mt Fuji, because of rain, fog and windy
The tour guide was good to explain things to us.
The bus driver is very excellent driver, no hiccups on the way she drives on the wet, fog winding road.
I did enjoy the tour.
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.
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.
Tour guide was friendly and informative.
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.
Both Nikko and Lake Chuzenji were quite stunning! Unfortunately, Kegon Falls was not visible due to the mist that day. Good food and a well informed guide made the total experience very worth it.
Everything went according to play, the exchange worked out.
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!
初めてのナイトクルージングにワクワクしながら なんと集合時間に少し間に合わずご心配をおかけしました。 船長さんやスタッフの皆様の温かなお迎えにほっとしつつ 出航するとこれまで見た事もない海からの景色にたちまち感動! 船長さんが船の事やプラントの事などとても詳しく楽しく説明して下さり、20代の2人の娘たちも大満足だったとのことでした。 横浜の素晴らしい夜景も堪能できました。ありがとうございました!

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.
This tour stops at all the right places and each stay isn’t too short or too long. Our tour guide Amy was brilliant, even offering to take pictures for us solo travellers and she made us all Origami birds on the bus ride home. Engaging and very informative.
We thoroughly enjoyed the all day tour. What attracted us in the beginning, was that it would be in English. Both the morning tour guide, and the afternoon tour guide, were very good, professional, and shared lots of information about the various areas the bus drove, as well as information on Japanese culture and customs. We saw such a wide variety of sights. Some were just driving by, and quite a few places you stopped for 45 minutes or so. It even included a river cruise. . I recommend paying to have your lunch included. It was ready for us when we got there, and was delicious. By doing that, we didnt have to rush around to figure out where we were going to eat. I highly recommend the All Day Grand Tokyo Tour
We only had one full day in Japan on our way home to Australia so we decided to take a tour out to the iconic Mt Fuji. We were picked up right on schedule from our hotel and spent about half an hour collecting other people from various locations before heading out to Mt Fuji. Our guide entertained us along the way with some history and personal anecdotes and even a little sing-along in Japanese. The weather favoured us too, the day being clear and sunny, so we were able to see the peak. The only downside was the cold wind. I was wishing for earmuffs! The cable car ride was cancelled due to the wind but we were able to see a lovely peace park instead. We could have returned to Tokyo on the bus, but we opted for the Bullet train instead. Our guide made all that easy. The experience of seeing those fantastic trains whooshing through the station while we waited for ours was amazing in itself. I'd definitely recommend this tour.
Good but we were not able to see mt. Fuji due to the weather.
I enjoyed the scenery that I don't usually see while mingling with foreign tourists. I had fun getting off at various stops along the Blue and Red lines.
外国観光客に混ざりながら、日頃見られない景色を堪能しました。ブルー、レッドのコースを途中下車しながら楽しみました。

I can recommend the hop on/off bus. Gives a heap way to see the city and sites.
Thank you for using Sky Hop Bus. We will continue to develop services to provide travelers with wonderful experiences. And if there is an opportunity, we would recommend "Sky Hop Bus KYOTO".
Thank you
Almost everything about this trip was perfect, from the travel guide, to the atmospheric views. The only major con I have is the ropeway ride. They stuff as many people as possible onto oa singular cart so that you can't move or take photos of the views through people's heads. Not a dealbreaker, but it's the reason I wouldn't give this trip a perfect score. 4/5.
It was a great tour with a very nice tour guide. The visits were very well organized and the places we went to had a lot of nice views. Highly commended
The guided tour picks up at Ikebukuro or Shinjuku station. Our tour guide was Nobu and he was quite wonderful! The bus ran right on time. It wasn't full for the day we chose because it was an overcast day. Mount Fuji peeked out of the clouds for just a moment while we were at the top so we got to see it!! It was awesome!! The tour hits up the Mt Fuji 5th station shop, includes a lunch at a French restaurant (with special accomodations for the vegetarian in our group). You get a $3 souvenir or ice cream voucher too. The cruise on the lake was the best part! If I was making a suggestion, the top of Mt Fuji and the amusement park could be 15 minutes longer and the lake area could be 30 minutes less in exchange. Other than that it was the absolute best and I would recommend to anyone!
Thank you for choosing our trip service! We are glad to hear that you have enjoyed yourself.
We are very pleased to know that you will recommend our tour to other customers.
Also, we will improve our service with regards to time arrangement in the future.
Thank you very much for your precious opinion.
We look forward to seeing you again!
The tour was ok. It was good to have a tour guide to help explain things. We were only on the mountain for 30 minutes which was no where near enough time. We needed at least an hour. The boat ride was nice too. The ropeway was closed due to wind so they took us to an aquarium close to the mountain. The aquarium was absolutely awful. There were dead turtles in a few of the tanks. I would have preferred to have headed back to Tokyo a little earlier and skip the aquarium. Most of the folks on our tour complained about the aquarium. Not having a reserved seat on the bullet train was also a disappointment. I would recommend a reserved seat on the bullet train to and from the mountain if you can do it.
The tour was good. I enjoyed.
I like that during the bus the guide was talking about some interesting things about Japan.
During the Cruise in Lake Ashi, you only can see Mt. Fuji almost when you have to leave de ship. I think this is not a good lake, a better one its the lake next to the Ashi Lake.
The lunch was very tasty but too small. I could eat more.
They have no pick up and drop off service from Asakusa area.
The tour was OK.
Every thing was out standing. Six of us. Guide was also v good. Even whether was in our favour.
The whole day was great and well organised, all the guides were very helpful and informative.
The forest walk and cave was the highlight of the day. The cave was suprisingly a lot harder than I expected, but still very fun even if it was slippery. Was very thankful they provided the jumpsuits and helmet as I would have got very dirty /wet otherwise.
Outstanding, wonderful tour, wonderful tour guide. Unfortunately we were not able to ride the gondola. The boat tour was windy and cold. The Mt Fuji did not hide from us. Kristi the tour guide is excellent and tried to educate us as much as she can. Thank you.
What I love the most about the trip is our tour guide. Kana did an awesome of explaining and lifting the spirit of everyone on the tour.
We got lucky; the weather was nice! We were able to see and admire the majestically beautiful Mt. Fuji. Our very energetic tour guide, Blair, has provided the entertainment we needed while on the bus. Hence, our trip has become more fun and memorable. We are sure to revisit!!
It is highly recommended this tour of Fuji.
Mt. Fuji Fifth Station – It was cold with heavy rain in the trip to Mount Fuji. The tour guide was nice and caring. She was a Japanese with good spoken in English.
Lunch at Fuji-Q Highland was very great and the food was delicious. The environment in the restaurant in Fuji-Q Highland was nice and grand.
Cruise on Lake Kawaguchi & Fuji Panoramic Ropeway
- We spent enough time in a boat at Lake Kawaguchi and Fuji Panoramic Ropeway. I enjoyed the trip and eating delicious soft serve ice cream.
Again, it was a Great tour! it was very convenient.
I really enjoy the trip in Mt.Fuji 5th Station and Lake Kawaguchi Panoramic Tour and I will recommend to my friends to join this tour.
Dear customer,
Thank you for choosing our tour to Lake Kawaguchi and Mt.5th Station!
We are very glad to know that you have enjoyed your trip wholly.
It is also reassuring to hear that there was no problem understand the tour guide.
We look forward to serving more customers in the future with the same quality.
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.
We had a wonderful introduction to the Golden Gai and tried food items we would have never thought to...our guide was interesting and fun...she shared the history of the area, interesting details of life in Tokyo, and took us to cool places we would have been too intimidated to go into on our own. I HIGHLY recommend booking a tour!
Outstanding tour of Mount Fuji and overall great experience. Mr. Koizumi did a fantastic job as our guide and I would definitely recommend him for anyone taking this tour. His knowledge and overall attitude made the trip something I know my family and I will not soon forget. Thanks to everyone that made the tour what it was.
Dear Bob
