    BEST TOUR GUIDE & EXPERIENCE! Ben was my tour guide for this trip, he was very knowledgeable and interactive with the bus. Love the fun facts he shared with us while we passed by specific spots! In the beginning of our tour the clouds were covering Mt. Fuji BUT literally at the last spot of the day the clouds started to clear up and I FINALLY got a better view of the Mountain! 4 stops but sufficient time to explore and checkout the places and shops! The bus driver was cool too 😎 you do have to make sure to ALWAYS be on time to meet back on the bus because we have had couple other tourists who took 10-15 minutes to come back to the bus because they didn’t keep track of time. Ben was VERY good at making sure everyone was aware of when to be back and where to meet back up again.

  • Its a mount fuji tour but can’t show us Mount Fuji .
