Mt. Fuji Tour from Tokyo with Lake Kawaguchi, Oshino Hakkai & Ninja Village

Great Tour

Reviewed by: Ailis Hughes

Really great tour. We got picked up on time from a hotel near to where we were staying which was very handy and well organised. Our guide, Levin, had perfect English, was very helpful and informative and made the tour extremely enjoyable. There were plenty of break stops along the way and the bus was very comfortable. Due to unforeseen traffic our itinerary changed however this was handled really well and we still got to make each stop as planned. Unfortunately the weather wasn't great but Levin still made each stop fun and interesting. The lunch provided was excellent food and we got to experience the traditional Japanese culture. We didn't have much expectations for the 4D experience but it was actually brilliant and we really enjoyed it. Overall it was a really great trip and we would highly recommend it to anyone who's thinking of doing the Mount Fuji tour.

Fun tour great day trip

Reviewed by: Emily

Booked this tour in the hope to see Mt. Fuji. Every destination point you visit will have advantage points to see Mt.Fuji. The only thing you need is good weather and clear visibility! This sadly isn't guaranteed but what you can expect is a great tour Leader, smooth bus journey to and from each destination and a fun day out. Our tour Leader Levin was really funny and charming. He told us information about Mt.Fuji, Japanese culture and the language. Definitely made the trip!

Private Mt. Fuji & Kawaguchiko Day Tour from Tokyo with Customizable Itinerary

A new friend in Japan

Reviewed by: Fifi oktini

We, a group of 7 adults, chose the tour having browsed the internet. The review was good and what we experienced was great! Taiji san is knowledgable, helpful and very accomodative. He picked up us at the hotel on time. We discussed and agreed the itinerary, modified one. We added Nenba and Halal Ramen Tokyo to end the day.
Taiji san is a skillful driver. Driving 10 seater Toyota Hiace he skillfully manouvered in very narrow Tokyo streets when we tried to locate Halal Ramen. Taiji san even attended our exhibition the next day. For us, Taiji san is beyond a tour guide, he is our new friend in Japan.
Arigatou gozaimasu Taiji san!

We were picked up at our hotel at the exact time as mentioned. 1st, we went to the Fujisan heritage center, and on the way our tour guide explained us everything! History, roads, emperors and my favorite THE LAST SAMURAI :) 2nd part of our day was the yummy yakiniku lunch and 3rd we went to Gotemba Premium Outlet! (shopped til we dropped haha). It was supposed to be the last part of our tour but our guide (Taiji) was kind enough to drive us around tokyo and the busy streets of Ginza! What a bonus!

Reviewed by: Nay Nay

It's mostly cloudy in Tokyo during the month of June. It was sunny and hot when we went on the bus ride. The whole experience was great except the sun shining excessively on us. Don't forget to apply sunscreen and bring something to keep you covered from the sun.

Great tour of Mt. Fuji

Reviewed by: Anders Reimer

My girlfriend and I were very happy about the tour of Mt. Fuji, which also took us to a beautiful lake, a ninja village and another nice little village where we could fill our bottles with natural Mt. Fuji water. We booked a tour, because it seemed a hassle getting to the mountain ourselves. Luckily for us we found this company. The guides spoke english and were very friendly. The bus ride was comfortable. We were lucky that the weather was clear and sunny. We don't regret a thing booking from this company.

Mt. Fuji Tour from Tokyo with Lake Kawaguchi, Oshino Hakkai & Ninja Village

best day in tokyo so far!

Reviewed by: Marco Cossu

This was 100% worth more than the cost, you see loads of different views and stores, great time to get all your souvenirs as i was struggling to find any good ones in the 5 days i have been here.
Theres loads of different stops at landmarks where you can get all sorts of different food, ice cream (blueberry!!) which is very nice. The ninja village and the 4d experience was the highlight of me and my friends trip, the food was a buffet of all sorts of food which as very nice and can eat till your belly pops and then we ent to the ninja garden to do ninja activities where you can participate in; trick room which is like an indoor puzzle, ninja training (forgot the name) where you either use bow and arrow, blowdart or shurikens to hit wooden targets, or a ninja obstacle course. btw it costs 400-500 yen to participate and i only know if you win a price for the training event.

we participated in throwing real shurikens and won plastic ninja shurikens (which is the lowest score) but you can win all sorts of different prizes depending on your score.
Also the 4d experience literally blew our minds because we didnt think highly of it but i dont ant to say too much because it will take from the experience but it was a very good day out, the best so far in the time that i have been here.

ps the guide and driver are very friendly

Mt. Fuji Tour

Reviewed by: Nyssa

Taiji was our tour guide on this trip just this March 2017. He brought us to a temple, the lake with Mt. Fuji view and Gotemba shopping area. All with considerations on our end. He was very friendly and accommodating, answered questions about the trip.
We had lunch with him and he shared stories with us. He also asked questions about us and he also took our pictures.

He even offered to wait for our shopping time and when we're about to get off, he asked if we have plans for the next day because he's willing to give a city tour. However we do have planned itinerary already so we just thanked him.

He also helped me find my purse which I lost on that day. Sadly, we weren't able to retrieve it.

I recommend him as a very friendlya nd helpful tour guide. He speaks english well and can converse naturally.

Worst hop on hop off bus I have experienced

Reviewed by: Cas

I have been on many throughout my travels and this would be the worst experience I have had. The driver was terrible! The bus lurched, braked suddenly and all the other actions you can imagine from the roughest ride ever. I had to actually leave the tour about half way through as my back was hurting so much. Due to the infrequency of the tours we were only able to do the blue route which was a shame as all you really saw was the Tokyo tower and the rest was just driving around this huge City.
Very disappointing. It was the only black mark of all our travels in Japan which we absolutely loved.

Mt. Fuji Tour from Tokyo with Lake Kawaguchi, Oshino Hakkai & Ninja Village

Mt Fuji Day Tour

Reviewed by: Ruth

We originally book our tour on a Thursday but checked the weather the day before and it was rainy so we called and changed it to Friday, customers service was nice and helpful.
We were at the designated pick up point by 8am. Our tour guide Levin was on time. He was nice and funny. He's knowledgeable and even taught us basic Japanese words/phrases. Our first stop was Lake Kawaguchi. It was still early so we didnt get to see the full view of Mt Fuji and reflection against the lake as it was a bit cloudy. Levin recommended to try the blueberry soft cream. 'Twas delicious! Next stop was Oshino Hakkai where we strolled through the village and saw 8 ponds, and this time we saw Mt Fuji clearly. It was beautiful. Almost lunch time and we headed to our third spot, the Ninja Village. We had Japanese-style food for lunch. Food was delish! Then off to our fourth stop, Mt Fuji Fifth Station. We got up close to Mt Fuji. We enjoyed the views and the little shrine. However it was freezing cold. We didnt stay there for long as we had the 4D Fuji Airways schedule. This was one of the best 4D's we've seen as it was so realistic.Really enjoyed it! We headed home and got dropped off at Shinjuku station as our last stop.
Over all it was an amazing experience!

Mount Fuji Tour

Reviewed by: Livia

We had a great day at the Mount Fuji. The pick up was on time at the estimated point. The tour was good organized and our friendly guide Levin explained everything at least twice ;-)
The first stop at the Lake Kawaguchi-ko was a good break for a blueberry soft-ice, which Levin recommended us and which was really tasty. Unfortunately we couldn't see the Mt. Fuji from there, because the Mountain was in the clouds. Oshino Hakkai with it's ponds was touristic, but nice. We took the path next to the small river back to the bus, which was really nice! The lunch at Oshino Ninja Village was excellent and the garden is really beautiful! We whished we could spend a little more time there. On the fifth station of the Mt. Fuji we were finally lucky to see the top of the mountain. The last stop, the Fuji Airways was pretty cool, so we were able to see the mountain in different seasons and special sceneries.
I would recommend the trip to see something more than Tokyo, but go sure that you'll have good weather conditions to see the mountain in all it's beauty. It's worth a visit!

Reviewed by: Joo

I like this tour very much. In the morning, I had a hiccup to find out the meeting place and immediately called the emergency line. She asked me to get a taxi and explained the details to the taxi driver on how to go the meeting place so that we did not miss the trip.
Our tour guide was Kim and he was very friendly and helpful. During on the way to Mt Fuji, Kim explained about the formation of Mt Fuji and a little bit about Japanese culture especially about the differences between shrine and temple.
Our first stop was Lake Kawaguchi-ko and we had opportunity to taste the blueberry soft ice-cream. Unfortunately we was not able to view clearly at Mt Fuji as it was covered by cloud. Then we went to the 8 ponds in Oshino Hakkai and it was a traditional Japanese village. I heard a lot about the wonder of Mt Fuji water and took the first chance to drink a youthful Mt Fuji water.
Our next stop was a ninja village where we had Japanese style lunch. After the lunch, we visited Japanese Garden and took a few picture of very beautiful flowers in blossoms as we had missed Sakura flower session in Tokyo. After that, the most important place to visit is the 5th station of Mt Fuji. It is a fantastic and beautiful. Well! It is worth the trip.
We did not expect much on the last stop on the 4d movie simulation on Mt Fuji. But It is very real and nice. We wish we could go the second view of it.
We strongly recommend for this tour.

Private Mt. Fuji Tour from Tokyo with Arakura Sengen Shrine & Fuji Five Lakes

Taiji Endo is an exceptional guide

Reviewed by: MML

On the morning of our tour, our guide, Taiji was waiting when we exited our hotel lobby. After introductions, Taiji familiarized himself with folding my wife’s wheelchair. Once we were in our seats, we explained that we would prefer not to participate in the hot springs bathing. Taiji accepted this and said we should still see the lakes and towns along the way to Mount Fuji as they are quite remarkable.

Taiji took us to the World Heritage Site Visitor Center where we watched an informative video about Mount Fuji. It was there that my wife noticed photography by Rocky Tanaka. We later learned Taiji and he are friends. At the end of our tour Taiji arranged for us to meet with Mr. Tanaka so we could view his gallery and purchase a piece of his art.

From the Visitor Center, we traveled on to see lakes and ponds which have formed by snow melt from Mount Fuji. Some of the villages along the way also exist only because Mount Fuji is towering in the distance. Mount Fuji is a Religious symbol to the Japanese.
We saw and ate white strawberries for the first time. We saw a traditional Japanese home with a thatch roof that will last for 100+ years. We saw bonsai trees and gardens and shops and fish ponds with giant fish and markets. We ate a traditional Japanese meal in an authentic Japanese restaurant where no one spoke English except for us. The food was DELICIOUS and the portions were HUGE! Then we continued on to the Fifth Station.

Taiji is an exceptional tour guide: He was a very safe and capable driver. Even in the high traffic areas of Tokyo’s interstate, we felt we were in safe hands. His English is impeccable and he is extremely articulate. His manners are first rate and he was professional, observant and intuitive. He has a seemingly unending knowledge of Japanese history and culture.

Pretty Tokyo Buildings and Citylights

Reviewed by: Sheila

It was my first time to participate on a hop-on hop-off sightseeing tour. I used to kind of make fun of these "touristy" activities whenever I go on an out of the country trip. Surprisingly, I had fun with the tour! It was amusing to hear the guide talk non-stop. The bus left promptly so no time was wasted. As we drove along the expressway, I loved how the chilly air made my face numb (LOL). Also, pretty citylights view never gets old with me. Oh, and this sightseeing tour made me realize my new fascination -- buildings! Tokyo has one of the most interesting buildings I've seen so far.

Indeed, the experience was great for a person new to the city! The view from the top of the bus is incomparable to that from inside a taxi or car. But, since it's open, the cold wind somewhat gave us chills, perhaps it's nice if they could provide blankets or whatever :) English audio guide is ok, I guess... not really into the history and stories of each place, just took pictures of everything! Instagram worthy! :)

It was the first ever tour I went on... ever! It's a great way to see the city especially for me, a first time traveler. We took the Odaiba Course and we passed through the Rainbow Bridge.

We also took photos of the Tokyo Tower while it was illuminated by 276 (as per the audio guide! Ha!). We were very fortunate that the stop light turned red at a good spot and for an enough amount of time to take nice IG photos from the open-top bus.

The Audio Guide was very helpful and the perky guide was very nice! I would totally recommend taking this tour. I will definitely do it again when I get the chance!

The tour is perfect for first-time Tokyo visitors.

There was an audio guide that translated the commentaries, which was helpful, but after a while I took it off and just kind of figured it out. We went for the night tour in May and it was still pretty chilly, so be sure to bring a jacket!

Reviewed by: Irena

15/05/2017, we found this tour very good! Meeting our tour guide was easy and we boarded a nice clean and comfortable bus. Our tour guide was Levin and he was very informative, funny and helpful. Our first stop was Lake Kawaguchi-ko where we were lucky enough to get a brief look at Mt Fuji and enjoyed a delicious freshly made blueberry soft cream (ice cream), we then went to the 8 ponds in Oshino Hakkai and drank from the fountain of youth which is mineral water from the volcanic area and saw carp swimming in the creater like ponds and took photos of some cherry blossom trees. We then drove to a ninja village where we ate japanese style lunch and took a photo with a ninja and joined in some ninja activities. Next stop was the 5th station where we were lucky enough to be able to be driven all the way to the top of the 5th station (it can be closed due to weather conditions), it was very cold and windy but was lovely to see Mt Fuji close up! We also received a special gift at this point and our final stop was a 4d movie experience which was very amazing technology and scenery of Mt Fuji and surrounding areas and quite fun. Throughout the trip our guide Levin was giving us facts about the areas and making the tour fun and interesting for us and was more than happy to answer our questions.
I would recommend this tour!

Had a great time

Reviewed by: Cali

The tour was really nice and I got to see a lot of Tokyo that I might not have gone to otherwise. I was able to do all three route in one day, but that was with only getting off at two stops for an hour each. So you might only be able to do two of the routes if you want to get off at more places. I did notice a slight problem with the recorded tour cutting off and skipping to the next section if we were going to fast, but it didn't happen too often. Would definitely recommend if you want a quick overview of the area to see where it is you want to explore more later.
