It’s going to last all day. Bring comfortable clothes and extra water. Possibly an umbrella on the chance it rains.

We had an older tour guide, I think name was something like Heija. Was really hard to understand. His assistant Mackie spoke much better English and was quite knowledgeable. It was bad weather for the tour unfortunately, which meant the top of Mt Fuji was covered in cloud. The stop at the 5th Station felt rushed - seeing Mt Fuji is the main point of this tour. I didn’t book lunch thinking there would be many options around to choose from. There wasn’t much not. The restaurant where the group ate at was the only choice. But I didn’t have a set menu and could choose what I wanted from the menu. The food was actually really good, so I’m glad I didn’t choose the lunch option. Because of bad weather, the cable cars from Hakone meant you couldn’t really see anything. Lake Ash was nice, but the ship was completely packed meaning you needed to stand up the whole time. Wasn’t a bad thing given you were sat on the bus for a lot of the day. Catching the Shinkansen back was a good idea. Much quicker than the bus. Overall, if weather is poor, I’d reconsider doing this tour as you miss out on a lot. English speakers expect a guide that they can understand in English too and our tour didn’t get this.
