Loved the tour very much. Id do it again if i could.

We had a fabulous time. Very informative guide and beautiful views of Mt Fuji

When we booked a Mt fuji tour we'd only expect to go near the Mount and probably one more place, and some random English guide.
But it turned out completely different. The guide is really kind and energetic, explains quite a lot about Mt fuji and Japan overall aswell.
The tour takes a few hours and you get to see several places aside Mt fuji. Falls and ponds are a great addition to the whole experience.
Would definetly advice anyone that wants to know Mt fuji and the area around it to take this tour, we'd have never knew the places we did if it wasn't for this.

Our tour was perfect. it was more fun because of Saturo San and the driver(sorry i forgot the name, but he even gave us a parting gift which he drew himself) treated us not as guests but as friends. they made sure that we are comfortable and they are very knowledgable about the tour and about Japan. Saturo San made sure that he answered all our questions before the tour ends. the only thing is the time in Gotemba outlet, I didn't have enough time for shopping. but it was still ok! will highly recommend this to my family and friends.

it's really convenient and more fun if you have a tour guide and a private van especially when you're travelling with kids.

:)

Norikosan, our guide made the day really memorable. She kept the day simple, on track and her local knowledge was invaluable.

The visit to the Tokyo skytree was easy - no waiting in line, Norikosan purchased the tickets and fast tracked our group.

Odaiba's giant robot - she knew that the best time to see this was in the evening and Norikosan made sure that we arrived just as the show was starting - made my day

Veltra have a great team on the ground in Japan.

Overall, the tour was good and organized. Our tour guide, Ms. Mayo was very accommodating and pleasant. I just hope that next time, the tour would give longer time for shopping at gotemba. We would definitely recommend this tour to friends.

Joji was sooo funny!!! She was a great guide!! The trip was awesome too!! The driving around was a tad too long but it gave us time to nap and ended up giving us some energy for night activities.
Thanks heaps!!!

- Easy to find pick up point
- great guide called Shin who was very knowledgable providing facts throughout the day with handy picture cards
- reasonable amount of time spent at the 5th station, Hakone cruise and cable car

Sites visited were absolutely stunning. It is now a bucket list item to climb to the top of Mt. Fuji!! The tour guide was awesome and provided history, language and cultural lessons in a very clear and entertaining way. I cannot remember his name but our guide (bus 3 on 11/2/18) was outstanding.
The only complaint is that we were very rushed. We were only able to stay at Mt Fuji for about 30 minutes and ran through Owakandani. Understanding that it was peak fall traffic, perhaps the tour should start a few hours earlier?
Other than that aspect, we had a great time.

The entire tour was way behind on its schedule. We barely mad it to Mount Fiji and when we did make it the obserervation deck was closed. There were way to many tours going on at the sametime we were told 7 busses that’s close to 301 people just for this company If the tour was not so far behind i might rank it good

Good tour, too bad we couldn’t see the lake or waterfall due to thick fog.

She even sang to us :)

Such a great day, couldn't have done all the spots without this guide. Defo worth it... Definitely bring lots of snacks with you as there is only one meal and barely any time to grab things throughout the day.

A day day trip out from Tokyo to try and see more of the country but be warned - the time on the coach is considerable. I knew of course there would be around 2hrs to Mt Fuji but there is then over an hour to lunch, another hour to the next site and so on. We were a little unlucky with the weather but the submit was visible at station 4 - a shame to then have to stop at station 5 with no visibility

Guide was very sweet and tried hard. It was a good day out if you have time but I would not rush to book this trip again.

The experience we got was priceless. Very Recommended tour for a short visitors in Japan.

The tour guide went over the borde of my expectations. She was very prepared. Outstanding.

Our experience on the Mt Fuji was the highlight on the weather and the snow experience that make my family enjoy the trip.
My daughter was enjoy the Hakone and Lake Ashi.

We enjoyed our full day tour. It gave us a feel for the city and met our expectations for a reasonably priced tour experience.

Lunch was quite good and there was plenty to eat. We got on the bus at 8am and the lunch stop was after 1pm, so I’d recommend taking snacks to keep you going.

The bus pulled-up in a couple of awkward places, making it difficult for some of passengers to get on and off at destinations.

Overall though, I’d recommend it.

A wonderful day in Nikko. Our guide was great very knowledgeable. Loved our traditional Japanese lunch. Plenty of time to explore on our own. Highly recommend this tour. Autumn leaves were out,amazing scenery. Guide made sure everyone knew how to get back to their hotels after tour ended.

What a great tour - well organised, great variety of activities, professional staff

It was a fantastic day except for the lack of WiFi in the bus

We did the all day tour. Our guide in the morning was wonderful great English and did a good job of keeping group together and on time. The afternoon tour was very unorganized and rushed. Tour guide English was average talked muffled into microphone and did not keep the group together would walk a few steps stop and wait for everyone very disappointing! Also return service to hotel is long and exhausting!

We had a fabulous tour of Tokyo with Tom as our guide! He was so kind, informative, and interesting. He picked us up at the cruise port right on time and showed us as many highlights of Tokyo as we had time for, and we loved them all. We saw a really nice variety of Buddhist temple, Shinto shrine, Imperial palace as well as more modern shopping and government districts. We had a great driver too who dropped us off close to whereever we were going. Tom was flexible about our needs. We requested one of the department store food halls for lunch, and he took us to a great one and found a nice rooftop area for us to eat at. It was so fun to have Tom guide us through the hall and explain the food to us. After the trip, Tom sent us all pictures and a journal of the day—so thoughtful! We loved Tokyo and Tom and can’t wait to return and schedule more tours with him!

I will rate it 5 stars/outstanding if the weather in mt fuji were good but it was foggy/cloudy that day. Thanks to our tour guide mr.yoshi of japan gray line, he tried his best making our tour enjoyable though the weather was not favorable for us to see mt fuji. We enjoyed the tour. Highly recommended.

Great tour. I love the lake cruise esp the pirate ship and the gondola. It was an amazing experience. The tour guide spring was very nice and entertaining, she is very funny and helpful.

Overall, tour was excellent. Had a unique experience and i enjoyed it even though i'm solo traveller.

Best experience during our stay in Tokyo. Everything was on time and managed with great professionalism. Highly recommended!
We went with our two kids 11 and 13.
Make sure you check the weather. It can’t be cloudy or you won’t see Mt Fuji. Take the bullet train to return to Tokyo.
Kids enjoyed everything!

Tom, our tour guide was simply fabulous. He arrived at our hotel on time and had a driver with him. He explained our plan for the day and asked if we wanted to alter anything. It was raining that day so he suggested an alternate tour so we can get the most out of the experience. Instead of going to the Pagoda to view Mt Fuji ( which wouldn’t happen because of the fog and rain), we decided to visit the natural ice cave and wind cave instead. It was such an adventure and me and my girlfriends had so much fun. We then went to an authentic tic Japanese restaurant for lunch by the lake, did the ropeway, went to a Sakw brewery and finished off with a bath at the hot springs. If tpu’re thinking of a day trip to MT Fuji, hiring Tom is the only way to go! And he spoke perfect English :)

Thank you so much for a wonderful day Tom!!

The Trip to My Fuji, Janine and cruise to Lake Ashi gives you a memorable experience to cherish for your life. Well organised tour with English guide made it easy to understand the things. The beautiful scenery of lake Ashi,Gondola ride, and marvellous Mt Fuji makes a wonderful combination. The return journey via Bullet Train was an icing on the cake.
Go for it.

Unfortunately, we weren’t able to get to the 5th station because the roads were closed but the view from the stop was beautiful. It was a sunny day for us. The tour guide was really nice. I wish we would have had a little bit more time at each location but otherwise the tour was good. Expect a long bus ride .

The tour leader was very organised and informative. She shared information that was both specific to the sight seeing and general info on Japan and the culture. She had a great sense of humour. Highly recommended.

We went on this tour the day after a typhoon, this was a good and bad choice. Good because we had extremely clear skies to see the mountain from far away. Bad because the road up to the 5th station was closed.

The Guide was informative and funny, the tour bus was comfortable and clean. Lunch was really tasty buffet and the Ninja show(an extra cost) was very cool.

all in all it was amazing.
