Explore the Scenic Beauty and Historic Landmarks Around Mt. Fuji and Lake Kawaguchi on a Bus Tour from Tokyo

A wonderful tour that was great for the entire family. Our group was my 70-year old mom, my husband and I, and our almost 2 year old daughter. Most stops were stroller friendly, except the last one which had 400 steps. Luckily, we brought our baby carrier. Our tour guide Omar was amazing - knowledgeable, entertaining, and was amazingly playful and helpful with our little girl.

The guide was super nice and shared a lot of information. The driver was very good too. We had a nice tour with a lot of good spots of Mt. Fuji, but unfortunately we have not been given enough time in Chureito Pagoda, which takes quite some time to enjoy.

This was such an incredible tour. All the stops were worth it and the views were stunning. I was lucky enough to go when the cherry blossoms just started blooming two days prior to the tour so everything was absolutely gorgeous. The guide was great and everything was very well organized. The only downside is a lot of people are usually on the tour and not everyone knows how to be on time so sometimes there were delays because of irresponsible attendees. That is not a poor reflection to the tour though, but it’s something to be aware of.

A full day for sure! Keiko was very good and attentive to the group needs. We were fortunate to see Mt Fuji clearly along with cherry blossoms in full bloom! There is quite a bit of walking towards the end, and the last section for views had many many stairs. Not recommended for those with knee or mobility concerns. Also should have some level of fitness as the time constraints may be difficult to stick to if going up all the stairs. Otherwise would strongly recommend.
