We were very satisfied with Sora's excellent service and had a wonderful day. We felt luck to join the tour. The views of Mt. Fuji, Hakone and lake are very pretty.

Shabeer took us to the temple with 500 steps so we could get a clear view of Mt. Fuji with the temple. After enjoying the perfect view of Mt Fuji, Shabeer took us to a small Japanese village where we were able to sample various food and drinks and enjoy another amazing view of Mt Fuji as we walked through the small town. Once we were finished there, Shabeer drove us to the Hakone area where we cruised across the lake, hopped on the Hakone Ropeway that took us to the top of the mountain. There we tried the famous black eggs, enjoyed more views and got picked up by Shabeer. Shabeer was an excellent tour guide, explained different options and was very kind and patient.

We embarked on a private Mt. Fuji tour with friends, and our guide Shabeer was absolutely fantastic! He was knowledgeable, friendly, and always up for a laugh. Although the weather didn't cooperate and we couldn't see Mt. Fuji, Shabeer more than made up for it by taking us to various scenic spots and hidden gems around the area. He even snapped photos of us and was always willing to lend a hand. Highly recommended!

We had a lovely time. Yousaf was an informative and pleasant driver. He took us to the places we wanted to see and had great communication on making the day flow smoothly. Bonus was a few funny riddles and jokes throughout the drive.

This tour does not actually go to Mt. Fuji, just to places where you can see it. We should have reviewed the itinerary more closely. The guide provoded very little information about anything we visited. The experience was disappointing.

It's everything packed in a 5 hour tour. It was perfect. Our driver Arsalan was amazing. He shared the history and was pleasant to talk to. It was a pleasure riding with him.
