This tour was enjoyable. The tour guide was very friendly and helpful. She even treated us to her favorite chocolates and snacks. She was also very knowledgeable. At the end of the tour we asked for a certain restaurant and she took us there for us not to get lost. The sight we visited were beautiful, the pre tour communication excellent and we were very happy with this tour. Highly recommend.
Unforgettable, wonderful tour and experience!

This experience was incredible! Hirokane messaged me and was in constant communication after we booked. We were picked up at the cruise port and taken to the Mt Fuji area. Our guide Hiroko was phenomenal and our family adored her. She was engaging with our children and was a perfect guide for the day. We would love to return and explore again!
An experience to remember

We received excellent communication from Hirokane from our initial booking up to and following our trip. This trip offered us an amazing day exploring nature. Our tour guide, Takako, was wonderful, she provided detailed explanations at the lake, falls and shrine and ensured we had plenty time to take amazing photos. She helped us locate the best spots to take photos of the wonderful Mount Fuji. Everyone in our group had an amazing day and will remember it for many years to come. Our thanks go to Hirokane, Takako and our driver for providing us with wonderful memories.

What an extraordinary day. Hero was fantastic. Picked us up from the cruise port and spent the day off the beaten path. Great views of Nt Fuji and explored the lake and waterfall. And not a lot of tourists. Highly recommend.
Fair tour

It's a long drive from the cruise ship pier to the first stop. At least 1 hour 10 minutes. The Tour Guide, Roger, although very nice, hardly engaged us with any narrative along that boring, long drive. Once in a great while he would point something out but very little. Since we were in a van taxi, he'd say something in a low voice and only the people directly behind him could hear. He should have spoken loudly so everyone could hear or better yet, have a microphone and speaker. Since he rarely engaged us many of us fell asleep during the drive.
