Private Mt. Fuji & Hakone Tour with Lake Ashi Cruise & Optional Private Onsen

Perfect team of guides

Reviewed by: Brian Shelton

Our custom family private day trip with Mr. Tom Harada and his associates was exactly what we wanted. His English was perfect, he was extremely patient, courteous, friendly, and knowledgeable about both the history of the areas we visited as well as their current attractions and features. He was waiting for us in our hotel when we arrived in the lobby, and was always managing our time throughout the day so we were able to see everything we wanted. He customized the tour to our preferences and specifications, and also recommended other areas that were convenient and very enjoyable. The transportation was very clean and comfortable, and the driver was very safe. He even assisted us with our bags and booking tickets on the shinkansen at the conclusion of the tour, ensuring we were safely on our way to our next destination. He also offered us his phone number if we had any problems the rest of our trip in Japan he could help with.

This tour is highly recommended, and I would encourage you to trust Mr. Harada with your tour, as he knows all the secrets, hidden gems, and in's-and-out's to ensure your valuable time is spent wisely.

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

It's ok

Reviewed by: Hoai My Winder

The shrine was extremely crowded as one would expect visiting such places in Japan. However, it was very loud. I had been to Meji Shrine, Enoshima Island Shrine and despite the crowds there, it was relatively peaceful and quiet. Not so in the shrine in Nikko.
The waterfall was nice as so was the lake.
The drive out of the waterfall almost made me loose my lunch.
The lunch option was wonderful so I recommend that.

Good service but could do better

Reviewed by: Varzavand Debara

It's a good service if you are short on time but want to experience Tokyo.

The staff was helpful and the service started promptly.

The issue I faced was, the audio commentary and the location I was viewing was different.

If this could be coordinated, it would be worth it.

Reviewed by: Selva

We were so lucky to meet Taici. His knowledge, kindness, helpfulness and energy made our 8 hr trip full of fun, education and great shopping. He took us to the places we enjoyed so much as if he has known us for years. We did not want our trip to end with him. We can’t wait to be back on a trip with Taici again.

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

Mt Fuji, Ropeway & Pirate Ship Cruise

Reviewed by: Toby

Overall experience is great. Tour guide - Ms Kanako was patient and really trying her best to finish completing the venues on time. The time spent on Mount Fuji was really too short. My wife and I do not have enough time patronising all the shops and the photos were taken in a rush (at least 45to60min instead of just 25min). Should have taken out the ropeway since the cable cars are not so impressive. The pirate ships were nicely decorated and the views were amazing. Advice to future participants would be to take the bullet train back to your hotels. My wife and I got back to Tokyo in a breeze around 40min. Those opting to take bus back will need at least 2.5to3hrs since it’s the peak hours. The food at Mount Fuji restaurant was good as well. Do opt for the meals included.

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

Not great in summer

Reviewed by: Grace

The.tour may be better in other seasons, but in June, low chance of getting a glimpse of Fuji-san. The lake Ashi cruise only took like 10min, and the cable car ride was like a rush hour train ride in Tokyo, I mean jampacked and stressful. The view from the top is magnificent though.

The tour guide was funny and threw in a lot of jokes, but his diction was hard to follow.

The part I enjoyed most is the lunch which was traditional Japanese, at least guests could experience real Japanese style.

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

Mt Fuji and Hakone in June

Reviewed by: Michael

Overall the trip was really nice. We had a very good view of Mount Fuji and the lady that guided us was very professional and very well prepared, maintaining a pleasant atmosphere all the time. Unfortunately we've done this trip at the beginning of raining season (beginning of June) so Hakone area and Lake Ashi was immersed in a very thick fog (luckily the weather around Mount Fuji was very good and we had a clear view of the mountain). But again check very carefully the weather before booking the trip! The success of this trip will be defined by the weather conditions! The lunch wasn't very rich but overall OK (hot pot with rice). You can pack some sweets to have it with you.

My suggestion related first meeting point. We are confuse and lack of information, and not manage by veltra's PIC

For tour : the tour guide is very kind and give us information about japanesse history and culture.

I feel spending time per each place too short. We are not enough time to explore. But i know this because we choose 1 day to many place. Maybe next time. Veltra can create better package that allow us to explore more with enough time.

Mt. Fuji Tour from Shinjuku with Shiraito Falls, Oshino Hakkai & Sengen Shrine

Best value-for-money tour of Mt. Fuji and its natural sights

Reviewed by: Rina

I was looking for a Mt. Fuji tour that covers great sights and is easy on the budget considering that there were 9 of us in the group, consisting of 1 child, 3 teenagers, 3 seniors and 2 of us adults. This tour exceeded my expectations. It was professionally handled and the sights we went to were all beautiful. Of course, it helped that we had great weather that day, which allowed us to see Mt. Fuji in all its glory, especially during the time that we were at the 5th station. We also specially liked the visit to the cascading water falls, which was simply breathtaking. The time allotted for each place was also just right. Eating lunch on the bus also proved to be very time-efficient and we brought our own lunch since the people in our group have varied preferences. The only unfortunate thing was that traffic was very bad on the way back to Tokyo that Sunday afternoon. It took us 4 hours! Good thing the bus was very comfortable. Maybe the tour can also offer an option for the passengers to take the train coming from one the stations along the way so that people can get back to the city earlier.

Jam packed itinerary but very fruitful

Reviewed by: Jim

The itinerary was jam packed but we managed to squeeze in Mount Fuji, a boat ride and a cable car ride all in a day. Mariko-san was also very friendly and helpful as a tour guide. However, I did not get the Mandarin audio guides for my parents that I indicated when I booked the tour, so was a little disappointed.

Overall it was still a great trip. Ichigo Ichie!

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

No view of Mt. Fuji due to weather condition

Reviewed by: Karen Ann

Yoshi-san is a very good tour guide and speaks english. We’re a bit unlucky to get a glimpse of Mt. Fuji from station 5. Yoshi-san allowed us to make a short stop at station 4 where we saw the tip of Mt. Fuji.

Got a better view or Mt. Fuji at the Gotemba area. Lunch is so-so although the Tempura is oishi! Cruise at Lake Ashi is breathtakingly beautiful (if you like scenic view). The cable car ride is a bit disppointing (we were diverted to a different cable car ride because the original ride from the itenerary had some technical issues). Again it was foggy from the top so there’s really nothing to see.

In general it was a 50-50 experience although it was nobody’s fault since you need to consider the weather condition before booking this tour!

While the pleasant seasons are certainly enjoyable, it is said that during the colder months, the air is clearer, making the scenery even more vivid.

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

Interesting tour round central Tokyo

Reviewed by: Bee

As mentioned, this was an interesting tour round the centre of Tokyo, with the ability to get on and off the open-topped bus at points of interest.
On the Roppongi/Odaiba route, before Tokyo Teleport, however, there are only three buses per day, meaning you'd need to spend quite a long time at e.g. Roppongi Hills. At or after Tokyo Teleport, the route coincides with the Odaiba-only route, so you can change between buses, meaning the gap between buses is only an hour and a half or so.
It was a strong sunshine/30C day this week, so future travellers are strongly advised to check the weather, and to take hats and sunscreen.

Reviewed by: アイとウエ

Many companies offer similar cruises, but this one was the best. The older woman at the reception was kind, and above all, the captain was exceptionally experienced and excellent. The announcements were easy to understand, and he provided a thorough guide to various locations. I thought an hour and a half might be long, but it flew by. When the boat rocked, they informed us in advance, so there was no worry about seasickness. It seems there are other courses available, so I would like to participate in those next time. Since it's on the sea, I recommend wearing warm clothing.

似たようなクルーズを、各社開催していますが、この会社は最高でした。
受付の年配の女性も親切でしたし、何より船長さんが抜群にベテランで最高です。アナウンスも聞き取りやすく、色々な個所を丁寧に案内してくれました。

Dear "Ai to Ue"

Thank you for joining our "Factory Night View Cruise by Ferry." The "ferry" is not something most people have the opportunity to ride regularly; it was previously fully utilized as a personnel transport vessel during the construction of Haneda Airport's D runway.

Our captain has extensive experience traveling abroad, and the Kawasaki and Yokohama factory night view cruise is immensely popular among our guests, thanks to his vast knowledge, humor, and exceptional navigation skills.

Please note that the minimum number of participants for the cruise is 15.

We sincerely look forward to welcoming you aboard again next time!
