Tour de escalada de 2 días al Monte Fuji desde Tokio con equipo libre

Overall a great tour that will create lifelong memories. Our guide had us at a very good pace that catered to most ability groups. The oldest hiker was 70, and the youngest was 11, so we were not being pushed at a hard pace. If anything, you might find the pace slow if you are in good physical shape. I see on some reviews here that the pace was too hard. That is simply not true. This is a mountain, not a handicapped accessible trail, so it can be challenging if you are not physically prepared. At first I was a little disappointed that we weren’t going to watch the sunrise from the summit, but instead watch it from the 9th station. However, this ended up being a far better choice with a great vantage point, as we could see just how crowded the summit was. It was a peaceful place to watch one of the most amazing sunrises that I’ve ever seen. We then made our way to the summit and could truly enjoy being there after the sunrise crowd died down. Our English speaking guides were funny and personable, and made it a great experience for all of us. I’d definitely recommended booking the tour with this group.

I cannot stress this enough: do not join this Mount Fuji tour if you're even slightly slower than the rest of the group. They will leave you behind on the mountain without hesitation — regardless of injury, altitude issues, or basic safety protocols. I pulled a muscle in my leg midway through the first day's hike and was moving a little slower as a result. Combine that with the effects of high altitude, and I wasn’t keeping the exact same pace as the rest of the group — though I still made it to the mountain hut within the allocated ascent time of 6 hours. Instead of offering support or even basic empathy, I was shocked to be presented with a waiver to sign, saying I was voluntarily leaving the tour and that they held no responsibility for me if I chose to summit the next morning. I reminded them that I never chose to leave the group — they were effectively expelling me. I refused to sign the waiver. That should’ve been the end of it. But the next morning, just ten minutes before the summit attempt, I was pressured into recording a voice note stating that the tour bus could leave the 5th Station without me if I didn’t return by 11:30 AM. I felt completely coerced into doing this, and this was after an argument where I clearly stated I was capable and willing to continue and I just needed to rest after pulling a muscle yesterday. To make matters worse, they removed the helmet from my head — a helmet that I paid for as part of the tour package — claiming they weren’t sure I’d return it in time. This was a blatant safety hazard. The guide herself later asked me multiple times on the journey why I wasn’t wearing a helmet when everyone else was and I had to remind her that she literally took it off my head. Throughout the summit climb, I was extremely anxious and stressed, because they made it clear they would not wait for me at the summit or the bus. I still managed to make it down well before the 11:30 AM deadline. And yet, they had the nerve to leave behind an elderly couple (both over 50) who weren’t as fast as the others — leaving them to fend for themselves. This company advertises their tours as being suitable for families and children over 6 years old. That is dangerously misleading. They showed zero concern for group safety, pressured participants into signing dodgy waivers, and even stripped customers of essential safety equipment if they weren’t confident you’d return it in time — even when you had other gear that also needed to be returned. One member of our group had visible signs of oxygen deprivation at the hut, and the guide never once checked on them. On top of all this, the tour guide was rude, dismissive, and completely lacking in empathy throughout the experience. This is not just bad service — it is irresponsible, unethical, and dangerous. If you're considering climbing Mount Fuji, find a company that values your safety and treats you like a human being, not a liability to be discarded the moment you're slightly behind schedule.

Arrived at set time. Only four people and a big bus. The tour guide said the trip was cancelled due to a road closure because of in climate weather. Normally, I'm good with that. Safety. Odd thing was people I was not with that took an alternate tour, went off at the same time 6:30-7:30 A.M. and they along with thousands of others on the mountain that day enjoyed the experience. Thought is they cancelled due to low turn out and cost of a full size bus. No way to tell now, but very circumspect looking back vs what others received, going to the mountain with alternate tour companies that day.

It was amazing!!! 2 days that I will never forget. The had 3 guides with our group The whole time, all of them spoke english, the trip was realmente tiresome but thats what we signed up for kkkkkk. The view up top is incredible, makes it totally worth it! The place we stayed in 8th station had a delicious curry rice (for those who like it) and the bed we slept was way better than we tought. The sheets were really good!!! I didnt sleep at all but because of the altitude, not because I didnt feel confortable. The view at night of the cities down there is unforgetable and when the horizon starts to color because of the sun, it looks like you watching Earth from space. We had a lot of fun and all was perfectly on clock. Actually we did it faster than the scheddule. Really grateful for the experience!

Excellent and well organized tour with friendly and experienced guides. Highly recommended for first time Mount Fuji hikers. Safety was paramount and made the trip even more enjoyable. I have already shared the tour info with many friends.

The guides were extremely polite , helpful and experienced. I would very highly recommend. Look no further.

2 days trip was a great decision. First: You can see a sunrise and Second: you can adapt to the elevation better. Also the slow speed of ascent was perfect... Specially if you are not a pro climber... I'm a mountain guide myself but did not miss the speed really going up. The guides were very good ad adapted to the weakest person, which was very professional... Additionally we made some breaks and we did gather together and continue forward... Dinner was nice and breakfast too. Enough Asian as well as enough European to say... Overall it was a great experience and I will do it again. We had super luck with the weather too... Amazing two days...

I did the Fuji 2 Day hike 16-17 July 2024. An interesting note - while I booked the trip through Tokyo Gaijins the actual trip up the mountain was accomplished by VIP Tour which was fine as they work out of the Mt Fuji Miharashi facility at the 5th station (Yoshida Trailhead). Nice setup with a gear rental shop, gift shop, coffee bar, restaurant and climber break area (on the 3rd floor). What appealed to me was the flexibility of their hiking plan, I was able to enjoy all the benefits, pickup in front of the Shinjuku Post Office (and return), overnight hut, onsen visit, etc., but didn't have to participate in a line of ducks march up (down) the mountain behind a guide. I was free to move at my own pace limited only by checkin time restrictions. Despite not being a fan of organized, overnight treks I have to say this was an exception. Highly recommend. Some considerations: take lots of 100 Yen coins, toilet use requires 200 to 400 yen per visit. Mountain hut has no heat nor "house" shoes so if you don't like walking around in socks take your own. They do have shoes for the toilet area. Water, soft drinks, snacks, etc. are available for purchase from the fifth station to the tenth - marked up prices. Check the weather, I got rained on and clothes/shoes got wet so plan accordingly. Mtn hut had no dry room facilities, not even a clothes line. The Yoshida (Fujiyoshida) Trail has both an ascent and a descent route. The ascent involves climbing up rock outcrops while the descent is fully on a maintenance access road. All are well signed (and color coded - Yellow) plus there are persons at key areas to help guide you. I walked alone and had no issues. No trash cans anywhere, not even at the 5th station so take extra bags for your trash. Finally read up on Japanese bus, hut and onsen etiquette.

The guides were amazing. Safety first, thoroughly knowledgeable, patient and kind. Wind and rain stopped is from reaching the summit but otherwise a great hike and outdoor experience.

I am disappointed because of bad weather and my vision to conquer mt fuji was failed. In summary, the services given by Viator is excellent.
