2 days trip was a great decision. First: You can see a sunrise and Second: you can adapt to the elevation better. Also the slow speed of ascent was perfect... Specially if you are not a pro climber... I'm a mountain guide myself but did not miss the speed really going up. The guides were very good ad adapted to the weakest person, which was very professional... Additionally we made some breaks and we did gather together and continue forward... Dinner was nice and breakfast too. Enough Asian as well as enough European to say... Overall it was a great experience and I will do it again. We had super luck with the weather too... Amazing two days...

The guides were amazing. Safety first, thoroughly knowledgeable, patient and kind. Wind and rain stopped is from reaching the summit but otherwise a great hike and outdoor experience.

I am disappointed because of bad weather and my vision to conquer mt fuji was failed. In summary, the services given by Viator is excellent.

We started the hike in fairly nice weather with high expectations and a little bit worried if we can make it to the top. These doubts were quickly met with an unexpected weatherchange, it became a raining hell for the next couple of kilometers. Nevertheless the group was still very motivated and in a jolly mood. Fortunatly ths was still the case, while the visibility sunk to approx 50 meteres and nothing was left of a long promised great view of japan from the ascending trail. After some time everyone and everthing was wet. But we kept climbing. Eventually while passing the 3000m mark .... nothing changed ... wait ... it became cold. Finally we made it to the 8th station and the promised land (mountain hut). We were greated with a reasonably well equipped shack at 3400m including a warm meal and hot tee. For everyone who was in need of new warm clothing after the heavy rain and fog and the generally cold weather, everything could be rented out, which was lifesaving. After this delightful end of day one, the whole crew was send to sleep in beautiful chambers with a lot of people per not such a lot of squaremeters. If you got some sleep you potentially belonged to the lucky snorers who fell asleep first ;). The wake up time was set at 2:00 am. After getting ready and gathering behind the hut we started our final battle uphill. The timing of the guides was always perfect and on point. So we made it up approx 50min before sunset and were able to get a great spot after starting the walk around the crater. Many thanks to the guides for that. As the sun was setting all problems troubles sleepless nights were forgotten immediately. So all in all nice trip, perfect guides, great timing and not too exhausting.
