Review the Mt Fuji and Hakone day tour from Tokyo, with Fuji views, ropeway, Lake Ashi cruise, buffet lunch, and bullet train return.

“The tour and tour guide was great But disappointing as the photo used to advertise booking is not what we expected as it was completely different The photo showed a pirate looking ship with Mt Fuji in the background, what we got was a short ride on the ferry with no view of Mt Fuji We took our grandchildren on this trip and the most they were looking forward to was seeing Mt Fuji as a backdrop from the ship Needless to say my grandchildren, especially my granddaughter, were extremely upset I’ll finish up saying that our tour guide, Youi, was amazing Beautiful English and easy to understand Knowledge was…”

Review of a full-day Mt Fuji and Hakone tour from Tokyo with Lake Ashi cruise, ropeway, drum show, lunch, and bullet train return.

“The bus ride to 5th station was smooth & safe. Our tour guide, Shige, was a wealth of information for our particular destinations as well as glimpses of life in Japan. Figured at the start that we won’t be seeing Mt. Fuji due to inclement weather, and it’s ok. All in all, the tour was a great start for us in Japan.”

“We enjoyed our tour, but it would have been more fun I think if we'd had a bigger group. There were 4 participants, and my family was 3 of those! I'm not sure it made it too much fun for the one other person either. Also, while we very much enjoyed meeting our guide and spending time with her, she admitted she was young and not really a drinker, which I think had something to do with us not actually drinking much on the tour. At least, not the drinking one expected on a something called a "drinking tour." We did feel we got plenty of food, which was nice…”
