We traveled with 5 adults and an infant and Taka provided a car seat for us and stopped when needed to change or feed the baby.

See Mount Fuji by bus, visit Oshino Hakkai, and relax at a mountain-view onsen on this practical Tokyo day trip.
“It was a fantastic day to see Mt Fuji - so clear, great photos. The sites and planned trip was exactly as described. The disappointment was the tour guide and the tour bus themselves. Very crowded, small bus. The guide did not describe anything clear - we would arrive at a place and she would tell us to be back at a time but didnt describe things. Other tour guides with their groups were explaining the significance of sites. This was disappointing. The onsen was a highlight, separate male and female, small tattoos acceptable. Our guide brought us to the onsen but didnt explain to us how to go about…”

Review of a $53 Mt Fuji, Hakone, and Enoshima day tour from Tokyo, with Lake Ashi cruise, ropeway, Owakudani, shrines, and practical tips.
“It was good except the meeting point was chaos with more than 20 groups trying to find the “person with yellow flag” there was over 10 people with yellow flags and the one for my tour wasn’t waving it but holding it by her side. Additionally the driver was coughing and sneezing the whole journey and didn’t wear a mask. He also kept changing the temperature to polar opposites so it was absolutely roasting hot to the point there was steam on the windows to AC on full blast. Him being unwell made he whole group feel unsettled and with the hot bus, it was like a Petri dish of…”
