An excellent half day.
The tour staff members are outstanding. They know the history, culture, and geography of the area and communicate their knowledge well. The visit to Shiraito was spectacular and the shrine was inspiring. The Fuji World Heritage Museum was nice but the weather wasn’t cooperating so couldn’t see the mountain at all. This was a worthwhile tour.

Do this Tour!
This was a fabulous tour given by a phenomenal tour guide named HiRo. Her English was outstanding yet she strives to perfected more and more. Impressive! She was kind, thoughtful, and extremely polite. She knew all the details about the falls in Mount Fuji and shared that knowledge freely. At lunchtime, I was the only one in the party who was vegetarian and she made sure that I found an option that was delicious. We really enjoyed our day and highly recommend HiRo and her tour.
