All Reviews for Mt. Fuji Day Tours from Tokyo

The tour was really enjoyable and educative. The sceneries were amazing. The tour guide was very kind and accommodating to assist us and extend extra services to his customers.
It was only frustrating that we did not reach the 5th station since the access was closed due to the climate condition. However, the overall experience was great

Everything was perfect. Guide speaks well English and also very helpful.

The day tour from Tokyo was as promised.
The guide assigned to us, Ms. Rayko, was informative and very professional yet warm. She was well versed with the history and shared pertinent facts about the places we visited.

The food served during lunch was simple but well prepared.

Would I recommend this tour to friends? Yes!!!

Fun tour! The no lunch options are slim but still delicious. Mario was very helpful and nice. Definitely worth going to see Mt Fuji.

Everything was great. The tour guide was pretty good. Bus and the drivers were pretty good. Overall everything was good. Nothing to complain.
Depending on where you are picked up, the pick up can take some time before the tour starts. In my case, it was more than an hour. Just be prepared for this.

While in Japan I saw some of the most breathtaking places I have ever visited, including Mt. Fuji. We were going to attempt a trip on our own, but were so very glad we signed up for this tour!

The day trip to Mt. Fuji and Hakone was great. The early am hours were foggy to really enjoy the mountain. The guide was excellent and had great time in the afternoon. I would recommend this tour !

The places we visited were all great with magnificent views! But we wish we could’ve stayed longer per area. We wanted to try out more activities at the ninja village and also stroll around a bit more ti check out stalls and souvenirs at Oshino village. Our tour guide Kim was helpful and accomidating as well!

Lunch was great! It was a buffet and everything was delicious. Blueberry Ice cream at Kawaguchiko lake was phenomenal. Even though it’s in the middle of winter, it’s highly recommended!

Overall, it was an amazing trip. We were able to go to all places since it was a sunny day.

Mary the tour guide is very good on her job. I like the lunch and we are on time of the schedule.

Very professional tour leader on this trip.
Definitely will book another tour when I'm back to Tokyo.

The coach ride up to Mt Fuji Fifth Station was a very comfortable and informative ride. We only wished to have spent more time there as we only had about 30 minutes to take in the amazing views. Please however be forewarned that eateries in Hakone closes early at 7.30pm so if you planned on dining at Hakone town, you would have to do so as soon as you check in. We first went for the onsen without realising this and by the time we were ready for dinner, we had to settle for the hotel’s restaurants which were all fully booked except for the Chinese restaurant. The tour should have advised us of this beforehand. It was nevertheless a great experience and a well planned tour.

Tour guide was terrible ! Frustrating the amount he talked and just made the tour awkward . I know he was just trying to inform us on Japan but no one was listening and was just embrassing. Also a lot of traveling and waiting around , example meeting in a hotel and waiting for at least half hour to leave then only been on a bus for half hour and arriving at a bus station and then been told to wait around for another half hour to switch bus , the layout of the day just could be laid out better especially with the cost. It was 6 friends which included 2 couples between age 23-27 and just wasn’t enjoyable .

Our tour guide, Masayuki (Masa is his nickname), was very kind and patient to us. He speaks good english so there was no language barrier. He always tries to grant our requests such as bathroom breaks etc. Since it is a private tour, the tour itself is very flexible.

We were having a grreat time during one day tour in Mt. Fuji. Eventhough the wheather was not perfect, and we can not visit the station 5, but they compensate it in a fair way. The tour leader, Levin San, is very friendly and warm. We are satisfied with all the services.

Hiro-san was very entertaining and educational. he was also very helpful. Our bus driver gave us a very smooth ride. To no fault of their own, i felt that the trip was too rushed. we only got to spend 45mins on 5th station, 45mins for lunch, 10mins on the top of hakone cable car. I'd like it more if we left tokyo at 7am rather than 9am so that we can have more time to enjoy the sights.

Time provided at each place is quite short.
The drop-point is different from the pick-up point.

I am a returning customer of dicovery tours/veltra. The 1st time was last january 1,2017 and this time december 1,2017.

Great for the price. Saw so much and got back at a decent time.

We thank Levin for a wonderful time. Fuji Airway was a fantastic and wow experience...Mt Fuji 5th station view was beautiful...our guide Levin ensure we can get there impressed upon me that he cares.

Kudos to our tour guide for being very accommodating. This tour has the perfect locations- it was unfortunate that the weather was a bit on the gloomy side when we got there. But it was still a nice experience since we were able to have a close & snowy encounter with Mt. Fuji at 5th station. I would suggest going for the "w/ meals option" since you only have limited time as it's a guided tour; like 15mins for lunch and would be cumbersome to be looking for restaurants nearby for that limited time. Not to mention prices don't come cheap on those areas with a least minimum of 700 yen for a bowl of noodles.

I took this trip last week with my family and had a wonderful time. We got a pick-up from Hotel New Otani which was near to the hotel we were staying. Then we were ferried to Shinjuku where we were transferred to our day tour bus headed for Mt Fuji . It was well managed and best part was the seats in the bus were pre-allocated so all the passengers were settled in no time. Even my daughter got a seat.
The tour guide ‘assistant’, as he called himself, was very friendly and real, talking from the heart and sharing his experiences in Japan.
It was a very pleasant and sunny day, perfect for viewing MtFuji, and that is what we got. We were able to go all the way to fifth station and click a few clear sights of the MtFuji.
On the way we stopped at few locations as per the itinerary. The stop at ninja village was awesome where we were also served Japanese style lunch with lot of vegetarian options. The food was great and well presented. There was a ninja show (not included in the tour price) which was also great. There were fun activities for all to do around the place.
On the way back we stopped for the 4D flight simulator ride which was not to be missed.
Overall we had a great time and we will recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tokyo.

It was a good day trip and I specially liked the restaurant that you took us. No complaints on my side!

The guide showed good knowledge of the Mt Fujii and the schedule was on time.

One advice: audio guides on portuguese.

Overall experience: Great - almost perfect
- The tour guide, Hiroshi, was very engaging, friendly and approachable. He shared a lot of interesting facts about Japan and especially on Mt. Fuji which made it very interesting for us tourists.
- The tour guide also engaged the participants to listen better and remember the facts by having a mini game and giving some freebies from Japan which is good way for us to make activity more fun.
- The good side is the tour gave ample time for each activity which is enough for people to take photos and have some rest.
- The views during the tour was spectacular and breath taking.

Suggestions:
- During the time of our tour, the road to 2nd to 5th station was closed so we did not get to see Mt Fuji up close. We understand it is for safety purposes. Maybe we could have gotten another free ride to Fuji Q also.
- Food is good but could be improved. Maybe change the chicken tempura to ebi one since it is more popular and tasty.

This is our first trip to Mt. Fuji and we love the trip arranged by Taiji-san. We have no problem to communicate with him because he speak very well in English. And he tried to understand our need before start up the trip. He is kind of caring and understanding person.. Thanks for making this wonderful day to all of us!

We really had a great time to our visit to Mt. Fuji with Taiji and this is our second time to get our tour arrangement with him. He suggest all the best place to visit aside from the given places to visit. We will definitely contact him again with for our future guests.

Had a great experience with the tour. A lot of nice things to see. Will definitely try other tours by veltra. Value for money. Thank you very much and hope to see Japan again the soonest, the better... really love the place...

The tour was a fantastic value for the price. Our guide Ari was great and very informative we appreciated all his extra insight on the history of the places we visited. We we're very lucky as the weather was perfect to see and explore the different sights we visited. The bus ride was comfortable and the Ninja Lunch was very satisfying i would recommend including it. The one down side to the entire trip was how much time you have at each destination, you must be quick if you want to see and enjoy all the different areas you visit. All in all i would say this tour is worth it for a wonderful day trip to the beautiful Mt Fuji.

We are lucky to meet fuji san. Good thing the weather is fine, we were able to go to 2 stations. On station 5 we were able to see upclose to mt.fuji. Our lunch is in japanese style it was a boufet so were able to go back whenever we want. We also had a chance to watched ninja program for 800 yen. And able to go the clear river in the 8 ponds. We also had a change to take a picture with the old ninja house there. At the end of the tour we had the 4d experience wherein we were able to see and feel on how to travel to mt.fuji. i must say it was a very good experience. Most important is our guide , we dont have any problem with our guide because he is english speaker and fluent also in japanese. He said he is a student here in japan and studying japanese culture and history. It was a big extra for us because he has a lot of trivia that he shared that we dont know. Overall experience is great and reasonable for the price. Im highly recommend this tour for those who wants to be close to mt.fuji.

We had a wonderful time. We were lucky to have clear sky that allowed us to see the majestic Mt. Fuji.

Thank you so much and we enjoyed the trip tremendously!

Awsome day. Our guide / host was outstanding. Very good local comintary and knowledge. Both my son and i had a wonderful day.
