Prem was knowledgeable about the tour and a very safe driver. He recommended things for us to see, do, and took our pictures. We stuck to the itinerary though Prem mentioned that it's customizable. We had good conversations with him and he's fluent in English. I highly recommend him to others. 5 stars!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this wonderful 5-star review! We are absolutely happy to hear that you had such a fantastic experience with Prem. Providing safe, knowledgeable, and fluent English-speaking service is exactly what we strive for, and it’s great to know that his recommendations, photography skills, and engaging conversation added that extra special touch to your day. Safe travels wherever your next journey takes you!
Ryu was such a wonderful guide who was prompt and had great time management to avoid the crowds which made the day more enjoyable. His knowledge of Japanese history was amazing and the itinerary he recommended made for a highly memorable day. Mount Fuji was amazing, local restaurant he recommended for lunch was perfect and then to see Fuji after Rye parted the clouds for us to see her in all her glory was a highlight 🗻😉 Highly recommend this tour especially with Ryu.
Thank you so much for your glowing review! We are delighted to hear that you had such a memorable experience exploring Mount Fuji with Ryu. It is wonderful to know that his knowledge of Japanese history and his ability to navigate the crowds added so much value to your day. We always aim to provide seamless timing so our guests can truly soak in the beauty of these locations. We will certainly share your kind words with Ryu—he will be especially pleased to hear that he successfully "parted the clouds" for your spectacular view of Fuji-san! We are also glad the local restaurant recommendation hit the mark. Thank you for recommending our services, and we hope to see you again for another adventure in Japan!
This is a wonderful tour that takes you to some breathtaking highlights. Prem was a fantastic guide.
Thank you so much for your 5 star review. We are happy to know that your tour had wonderful highlights. We will pass your kind words to Prem and we hope you visit Japan again in the near future!
My family of 4 booked this trip and Aaryen was our driver. He arrived in advance before 5.30am at our agreed timing as he advised us the day before to leave early to avoid heavy traffic and have more time for sightseeing instead of wasting hours in the notorious traffic jams. Aaryen was very obliging to suit where we wanted to go and he planned accordingly the route. We did not go exactly the route shown on Viator but spent half of our day sightseeing and the other half shopping at Gotemba Premium Outlets unintentionally, lots of laughs for our family because we intended to only go there for 3 hours but ended shopping there for 6 hours as it is a really huge shopping complex. Due to this, we exceeded the max hours on the trip but we were fine to pay the fees for the extra hours which the company was flexible to accommodate. Family had an enjoyable day trip out of Tokyo.
Thank you so much for taking time to leave us your review. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the time out of the busy Tokyo. We hope your memories will last forever and we hope you will visit again in the near future!
Best day ever, our driver/guide Ryu was wonderful, gave lots of information and suggestions for a great day to Mt Fuji fantastic, book this tour
Thank you so much for taking time to leave us your review and your recommendation. We really appreciate it!
We had a fantastic time during our 2-day trip in the Fuji area. Despite the rainy weather, which did not allow us to see Mount Fuji, we visited several interesting places. Ryu was our knowledgeable guide and driver, he was super friendly and added humour throughout the days. Highly recommended!
We are absolutely thrilled to read that you had such a fantastic time on your 2-day adventure in the Fuji area. We know it's disappointing when the weather doesn't cooperate, we really wish you could have gotten that iconic view of Mount Fuji! However, knowing that you were still able to visit several interesting places and had a memorable trip makes us very happy. Thank you so much for the high recommendation! We truly hope your next trip brings you that perfect, clear-sky view of Fuji.
Wonderful experience, Ryu was excellent! Share a lot about Japanese culture and made wonderful recommendations during the day and was extremely informative as well as likable.
Thank you so much for taking time to leave us your review. We appreciate it!
Our family had a great day out to Mount Fuji and Hakone with our guide Ryu. He suggested we leave early to avoid traffic which was a good idea. He is extremely knowledgeable and has years of experience as a guide in the area. The tour is a good way to get an overview of both areas but if you do have the time I suggest doing Hakone on a seperate day due to travel time between the two areas. Thanks for your kindness and a great day out.
Thank you for taking time to leave us your review. We are glad to know that you enjoyed the tour. Yes definitely it is better to visit Hakone in a separate day, it offers you more time to enjoy the Yamanashi area. We will make sure to pass your kind words to him and we hope to welcome you again in the near future.
It was wery nice, driver took us where we wanted. It was cloudy so we didn't go to the first station of Fuji but the driver took us to a village side and other nice places.
Thank you for taking time to leave us your review. We are glad to hear that despite the weather you were able to visit some nice places.
We had an amazing time. Our driver, Ryu, was so nice and informative. He had so much knowledge of the area and history and was perfect for leading our family to a memorable and wonderful experience.
We're so glad you enjoyed your tour! Thank you for the kind words about Ryu. We’re delighted your family had such a memorable experience and look forward to hosting you again!
