Too much time at the road. We were able to spent just 45 mins at Mont Fuji.

This is a very famous tour in Japan amongst tourguides. It is well organised and the tourguides are awesome. Unfortunately on the day we went it was very busy and very foggy so we didn't really enjoy it that much, but that's got nothing to do with the tour itself, it was just luck of the draw. However, if it was a clear day, it still would've been very rushed just because it takes a long time to get there by bus and there's so many people.

A very exciting day especially when you get that first glimpse of Fuji, she is magnificent, trip is obviously weather dependent so take photos at first opportunity. _br/_ Driver was aware of queuing traffic so took alternative cable car which meant we didnt get to sample the black eggs. Was disappointed at this._br/_ Lunch was taken at a hotel which was of a typical Japanese style and was very good.

Very good tour with the guide Kats being very informative throughout the trp. Enjoyed his comments about the facts of the region. If you have a chance I would would highly recommend that you do this tour.

Our guide Elie was amazing, She was one of the best we have ever had. However, the trip was much too tiresome. If you take this, I recommend taking the train back to Tokyo as opposed to the 3 hour drive back.

Got to see a lot but then things were rushed. Next time would do it over 2 days.

First of all, the tour was extremely well organized. Everything was right on schedule, we left promptly at the stipulated time and got to Mt. Fuji in the expected arrival time. We could only get to the first station as it was blocked with snow, but that was not an issue. I am not an easy crowd and had high expectations for this. The tour was overal... boring. There is not much to see really. The tour guide, even though he was very sweet, you could tell he was on a script and seemed tired of doing this over and over. There is a bit of a nice view from Hakone, but not the beautiful sights you see online. Lunch place was nice, and again, very well organized. Overall: if you are going there expecting to see the Mt. Fuji that you see in the pictures online, don't.

I am only giving this tour a 3 star rating as we actually did not get to do or see any of the places on this tour due to snow. With it snowing on our tour day, the roads leading to Mt. Fuji was closed. Everything outside was a white out so we couldn't even see Mt. Fuji or see Lake Ashi. The only activity that we did do was the traditional Japanese lunch, which we enjoyed. Our tour guide did his best to find alternative activities for us to do or see. He kept our interest and brought us to the Mt. Fuji World Heritage Centre info centre for Mt. Fuji, a kimono museum and he also found a gondola that was operational during the snow, so we went up to the top and our guide showed us where Mt. Fuji would be if the skies were clear. Overall, an OK tour, a bit disappointed not to have seen what the tour was suppose to show, but what can you do when Mother Nature decides to sprinkle alot of snow?

It was so easy to meet up at the bus station and head off to Mt. Fuji for the 2 hour ride. On the ride the tour guide gave us lots of information that we would never have known. The day was also beautiful, which topped it all of and the view from the top of the gondola was spectacular.

This tour was fantastic! Although a little rushed, it was a great way to visit Mt Fuji and Mt Hakone. Our tour guide was fantastic and very entertaining. I would highly recommend taking the lunch option with the tour. The food was amazing.

Great tour except for the guide NANA who never stopped talking. Far too much information and she carried on when most of the coach was asleep.
Review by: Courtney M, March 2018
I would not choose this trip as the tour guide spoke more about Mt. Fuji than we actually saw. The best views were from locations along the way, from the window of the bus. Once we got closer to Mt. Fuji it could not be seen due to weather. If the weather is poor close to the volcano, the tour should stop the bus at various locations further away to actually get good pictures. There were no views at 5th station and we thought while eating lunch we would be able to have a view of Mt. Fuji, but could not even see if from our location. There were also no views of Mt. Fuji from the cruise which was not really a cruise but required transportation to get to the gondolas. Finally, due to weather, there were no views at the top of the ropeway due to weather, and we stayed on top outside for 15 minutes and headed down. That part was a complete waste of time because we were in a cloud. Again, the only views and pictures I got out of the tour were from a moving bus. I wish the bus had stopped and allowed us to take pictures when we could because there was no opportunity at the actual tour destinations. Very disappointing.
