Taka is the best guide ever, prove me wrong

This was by far our favorite day of all our 2-weeks trip to Japan! Taka was absolutely amazing and even helped my boyfriend (now fiancé) with his proposal, by going to an amazing place with a clear view of Fujisan and filming everything in this unique moment. He explained the history of Fuji, the different gods and shrines in the region, and even brought us to Aokigahara forest to see unique natural wonders. He told us some interesting facts and customs about Japanese culture, Shintoism and Buddhism, we learned so much with him! One more thing: while the weather forecast might look like it’s going to be raining or unclear, don’t lose hope because it literally can change in a minute and you’ll end up seeing the most beautiful views of Fujisan and the 5 lakes. Taka knows the region by heart and will find ways to make it worth your time no matter the weather, and will bring you off the beaten tracks. 1000000% recommend! Arigato Gozaimasu Taka-Dono!!!! 🤩

This tour was a very good introduction to the Kawaguchiko and Mt Fuji area. Taka is very knowledgeable, his English is very good and he is a good guide. His vehicle is very comfortable and we got to see and learn about areas all around Mt Fuji. I would definitely recommend this tour. We had a great time.

This is truly an exceptional tour that takes you to private native places with no crowds! Beautiful views (on clear days ) of Mount Fuji and helpful photo shots from our guide Taka. So knowledgable and answered any questions we had at any time. Thoroughly recommend this tour highly 🤩 Tim and Tina (Aussies) 🇦🇺

It was my parents’ first time going to Japan and my mom wanted to see Mt. Fuji. We happened to find a tour with Taka and from when I booked the tour up until the day of, Taka was very responsive, understanding, and accommodating. We traveled with 5 adults and an infant and Taka provided a car seat for us and stopped when needed to change or feed the baby. He was very knowledgeable and provided some facts that we didn’t know about Japan and Fujikawaguchiko. We had a great time on the tour and were lucky enough to see Mt. Fuji even though it was a windy and cloudy day!
Wonderful tour of Kawaguchiko area

We had a wonderful time on our tour with Taka. He took us to various locations around the Kawaguchiko area which were lovely and interesting, and not jammed packed with other tourists. We took a walk to a secluded waterfall and a short hike though an untouched forest. Would definitely recommend a tour with him and will do another with him when in the area again.
