It was a highly recommended trip for my family, with great weather and clear views of Mt. Fuji. From the beginning, we were informed that it was a driver service, which was perfectly fine since our main goal was to see Mt. Fuji. Their team also monitored the weather for us and offered an alternative date if needed, but fortunately, we didn’t have to make any changes. Additionally, we were advised before booking that the weather might not be ideal and were encouraged to consider this carefully beforehand. The sales and tour operations staff were transparent and honest with all the inclusions and exclusions before booking. And also no hidden costs. Our driver was also great despite his humble English which we have no problem with. And thank you Kana and Miyu too. Keep up with the good work and best of luck.

Tokyo
This Is Plan A 1) Meet at Hotel Lobby at 0730 2) Tokyo Hotel to Fuji 1st Spot 3) Lunch (1 Hr) (cost exclude) 4) Dinner (1 Hr)(cost exclude)
Lake Kawaguchiko
Lake Kawaguchi, situated on the border of Fujikawaguchiko and Minobu towns in southern Yamanashi Prefecture near the iconic Mount Fuji, is the second largest among the Fuji Five Lakes in terms of its expansive surface area. This picturesque locale offers captivating vistas, particularly during the cherry blossom season in spring and the autumn season on clear, crisp days.
Arakurayama Sengen Park
Nestled within this breathtaking landscape, Arakurayama Sengen Park claims its place among the Kanto region's distinguished Top 100 destinations for admiring the majestic Mount Fuji. Its scenic allure, accompanied by the revered presence of the mountain, makes it an exquisite gem in this region's picturesque crown. The park begins at the base of Mt. Arakurayama and extends up the mountain. At the top of a 398 stair hike is an observation deck that looks out over the cityscape of Fujiyoshida City and majestic Mt. Fuji towering above. Though the Spring sakura (cherry blossom) season is best for capturing the symbolic image of Mt. Fuji, cherry blossoms and five-storied pagoda, the park can be enjoyed throughout the year with a stunning view that changes with the seasons. Free admission
Oshino Hakkai
Oshino Hakkai, a well-frequented attraction, comprises a series of eight picturesque ponds situated in the quaint village of Oshino, nestled within the Fuji Five Lake region. This charming locale rests between Lake Kawaguchiko and Lake Yamanakako, occupying the historic grounds of a once-existent sixth lake, which gradually desiccated centuries ago.
Hakone Ropeway
The Hakone Ropeway is part of the Hakone Round Course, a popular way to visit Hakone. It connects Sounzan Station Cabecar with Togendai Station (at the shore of Lake Ashinoko) and stops at Owakudani and Ubako stations on the way. Cost exclude
Owaku-dani Valley
Owakudani is an active sulphurous volcano zone created during the last eruption of Mt Hakone some 3000 years ago.
Lake Ashinoko
Nestled amidst a backdrop of serene forests, towering mountains, and the boundless expanse of a clear blue sky, Lake Ashinoko emerges as an utterly picturesque refuge. It is frequently immortalized with its signature vermilion torii gate and the commanding silhouette of Mount Fuji gracing the horizon. Situated at the core of the hot spring haven that is Hakone, Lake Ashinoko is a haven of natural beauty.

Spectacular, wonderful, thoughtful and accommodating
Spectacular wonderful and thoughtful, I could not recommend them anymore highly. We were contacted by Miyuki from HM travels, the detail the went to ensure our tour was perfect for us was amazing, weather was factored in and alternative options put to us, they asked what we had already done and what other things we wished to do and they changed the plan to accommodate.
