Worth the trip for mother and son . Omar is knowledgeable and we had a lot of fun. The small trivias and interesting facts about Mount Fuji and places surrounding it are also worth the listen.

Omar was a fantastic guide, friendly and knowledgeable. Great experience to see Mount Fuji, was lucky as it was a clear, cloud-free day! As a solo traveller I met several other solo travellers and made new friends, highly recommend!

Amazing tour! Very kind and nice guides. You are given a lot of time to enjoy the views, take pictures, and get local souvenirs, while still learning a few historical facts about the places you will be visiting. All admission fees included, lunch can be added - very oishi meal ✨ Thank you, Omar and the team!

This was a well organized tour with great views of Mount Fugi. Lunch was delicious and our guide Omar was fantastic and super friendly. Only complaint is that most of the places we visited were very full with other tourists. That is hard to avoid, but otherwise it was a fantastic experience.

We had a great time with this tour - excellent views and stops, outstanding tour guide, and helpful tips for exploring the stops. Without a doubt a great way to spend a day - many of these places I would never have found on my own. All of the stops, you are given a good amount of time to explore on your own, making it feel more authentic. Thank you Omar, you are very professional, knowledgeable, and kind!
