The trip did not turn out as expected due to the bad weather for viewing the Mt Fuji,as we are only able to reach the 1st level and the visibility was very poor.The guide did apologized for nothing could be seen on that day.Overall the lunch at the hotel was good and the ride back by the Shinkansen was interesting.Dissappointed for not able to see Mt Fuji but we we given the beautiful postcards.

Our guide tour is very efficient and has a way of entertaining us. We would like to thank her (Tour Guide of Bus No. 4) and our apology of not being able to get her name. We'll definitely recommend this to our friends and family members when they visit Tokyo. May we suggest that your client not be subjected to call up your company to confirm which is quite stressful especially we are out of Japan. Presentation of the printed voucher should be enough proof in joining the tour. Thank you for the nice tour!

It was well organized. The guide spoke excellent English. She was clear and well spoken. We had time to shop and yet saw many attractions. She made sure we could all find our way back to our destination. This was a great choice for us!

The tour was professionally managed, the bus, driver and the roads were excellent, the tour guide capable. We had the good fortune of a sunny day despite it being winter, and could go all the way up to station 5! Snow, windy, yet sunny, beautiful blue sky. Gorgeous. The lunch was great, but the Hakone visit, rope gondola and ferry ride were a bit rushed. Then, because it was winter, it became dark by the time we headed towards the Shinkansen station. It was a great one day tour.

It is definitely something one shouldn't miss when visiting Tokyo!!! It would be even greater, though if we were given more time to walk around Mt. Fuji Station 5 and get to enjoy our sorroundings more....

My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. It was fantastic and we would recommend it to anyone visiting Tokyo or Japan on a short stay. We didn't get to do all the stated activities, but we did have the alternatives offered which were great and really filled out the day. Due to the weather, we didn't get to see the summit of Mt Fuji which was a shame, but there was so much other stuff to see and take in culturally on the other little excursions/activities we didn't really feel like we missed out at all.
Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. She explained a lot about the city on the way out of Tokyo as well as the various areas we visited and passed through on the bus.
The lunch was excellent and more than we expected. The only down point was the traffic congestion on the way back to Odawara Station which seemed to take forever, but it was a National holiday so it wasn't unexpected. The trip back on the bullet train was well worth the wait though and we got back to Tokyo station within 30 mins of getting on the train! As we don't have any high speed trains like that in New Zealand it was great to both see and ride on.
I'd definitely book with City Discovery again.

Wholeheartedly recommend this tour . Tour guide - Take, was very good - informative and entertaining. Both Bus trip (pick-up from hotel), and Shinkansen return all went well. Japanese st<x>yle lunch was great, and overall a very pleasant day (and lucky enough to have a clear day for Fuji!)

The trip was nice, we enjoyed the cablecar and the pirate boat. Went to the 5th station in Fuji but other than a meandering mountain road there was nothing up there but a souvenir shop. A bit of quick trekking around would be nicer.
The guide was very helpful and made the coach trip much entertaining, providing interesting info and jokes :)
The but comes at stopping times, particularly at the Hakone fumes, which made us literally run to see the fumes and get back to the bus on time.

Great tour! A definite must do in Tokyo--- breathtaking view of Mt. Fuji and a relaxing half a day at Hakone. Seeing the Shinkansen from the platform is amazing, and knowing that you get to ride in one gives you a very satisfying feeling that you'll get to experience it. Our tour guide Katy was really great--- very informative, engaging, and accomodating. Lunch that comes with the tour was great, too-- authentic bento box and already laid down the tables and prepared to be savoured as soon as we got to the restaurant.

The whole package is worth to avail. we're lucky on our date as the volcano's summit is showing her beauty as we near the area. The lake cruise is as expected, more of the nature beauty sorrounding the huge lake. The cable ride up is the most thrilling of them all.

Unfortunately we had a cloudy day at Mt Fuji and only saw a little bit of the mountain but the whole tour was great. We had a great lunch, cruise on the lake and took some great photos from the top of the cable car.

Fantastic day. Only had 1 day available to see Mt Fuji and this tour was a great way to see it. The guide was excellent and very knowledgeable and helpful. Due to snowfall we could only reach the 4th station but the view was spectacular. The whole day was about Mt Fuji and we were given plenty of opportunities to take photos. It is a long day but I would highly recommend it.

For myself, the only highlights were the Japenese lunch and the Shinkansen.
Mt Fuji was rather disappointing and on the return journey to Odawara station to board the Shinkansen, we hit allot of traffic which delayed us around 1hr 30mins.

It was a good tour but a little bitty too long trip by bus.
After the ropeway we didn't take time at Mount Komagatake because it was too much tailback. It was a little bitty situation.
The guide was very friendly and busy.
Thank you for her.

Guide was fantastic and we got to expereince everything the area had to offer- from the 5th station, to cable car, boat ride. Having the bus to take us following one leg of these trips made us able to pack more in. Bullet train was amazing- wouldn't have gotten a chance since my stay in Tokyo was short, without this tour.

Great guide.... Emi San who was very knowledgeable about Tokyo and the areas around mt Fuji & hakone.
Good that the cable car was included to the top of a neighbouring mountain range otherwise I wouldn't have seen the top of mount Fuji -too cloudy.
Nice lunch.

It was okay. We did not get to see Mt. Fuji because there was a record number of people who climbed Mt. Fuji and our tourist guide decided to bring us to a Shinto temple near Mt. Fuji instead. The food was not good as well. The only good thing about it is the 15 minute cruise ride and the Shinkansen.
