5.00Our private car tour to Mt. Fuji and Lake Kawaguchiko with Masae (guide) and Toshi (driver) was absolutely fantastic. From the very beginning, Masae’s communication stood out—she carefully tailored the itinerary around our interests and even factored in the unique timing of the Fire Festival on the day of our visit. Her message to us set the tone for the entire day: thoughtful, flexible, and focused on making sure we experienced the very best. On the day itself, Masae’s guidance and Toshi’s expert driving made the trip seamless and stress-free. Masae’s knowledge of the region, combined with her warm and accommodating approach, allowed us to enjoy each site without feeling rushed. She adjusted plans as needed based on the weather and traffic, ensuring that we could make the most of every moment. Toshi was a wonderful driver—safe, reliable, and always ready to get us comfortably from one highlight to the next. Together, they made a fantastic team, and we felt completely taken care of throughout the journey. If you’re looking for a memorable and personalised experience to Mt. Fuji, we highly recommend booking with Masae and Toshi. Their professionalism, flexibility, and genuine care turned a great trip into an unforgettable one.
Great tour to Mt. Fuji

5.00This was a fabulous tour even with Mt Fuji covered in clouds. Hiroko was such a lovely, informative, and happy guide. She gave us a really great info session on Japan’s history with maps and visual aids on the way to our destination that made the whole experience more meaningful. She and our driver were so fun and helpful finding extra things to do while it was raining and because My Fuji was obscured. Because our driver was familiar with the area he was able to recommend a wonderful traditional steak house for lunch where we had sumptuous Kobe steak and wine. Hiroko helped me book Shinkansen tickets and stayed in touch with us over the following days recommending other things to do. She even took pictures and sent me a detailed itinerary of our trip so I could organize everything afterwards. Wonderful day!

5.00We paid about twice as much for this experience as other options because my daughter wanted to have a Japanese tour guide. Our experience was fabulous but you should decide if the extra expense is worth it. One other luxury this had (which I am not sure if other have) is that it had a driver and a tour guide. This may have added to the expense. Our guide Ken was great - a retired business professional who now does tours. They were very flexible and catered to our needs. He contacted us ahead of time to help us choose lunch options. He helped with everything along the way - even making sure we understood our lunch options (traditional Japenese food with not much English on the menu) and got our orders right. He brought us to great places to see Fuji and then discussed options (we chose the ice cave and shopping at the World Heritage center). The van was comfortable. The driver was great - smooth and safe and knew a lot of hidden places to get great views. We would recommend this experience!
