Suggested to depart at 5.30am to avoid traffic to catch clear view of Mt Fuji before covered by clouds. This was great. Had a good time and comfortable ride.
A lot easier and a faster way to see Mount Fuji. Meha delivered a great experience from start to finish. I would highly recommend.
I had the most incredible experience with Sultan and Waqaz. He suggested we start our tour at 5am in order to beat Golden Week Traffic and for the best chance to see Mount Fuji. We managed to make it to all the main spots as well as a few incredible viewing places away from the crowds! An unforgettable experience seeing Mount Fuji in clear weather and sunshine, this definitely made my trip. Thank you so much for the amazing tour, I would highly recommend to anyone considering!
It was rainy but we had a nice time at the village and cherry blossoms at the Torii gate.
We loved the temple with the big trees. Our guide, Memalik, was awesome. He was flexible and very informative.
Trip was awesome! We saw the mountain from different points, visited forest, and got unforgettable experience! Planning is flexible, so it is possible to choose landmarks for visit by own choice. Haider (guide) was nice and helped us with planning. His recommendations were useful and meaningful. Car is clean. In addition, Haider offered us snacks and beverages.
Attary was very attentive and kind, explaining Mount Fuji and the surrounding cities to us. The tour was great and a lot of fun.
Ali is very helpful and advised us to start the tour early in order to get a good view of the Mount Fuji.
Super trip with my driver Dev to Mt Fuji, smily and gentle. And Mt Fuji… you can feel the strength of the nature The landscape are magnificent, And temples associated to all that are inspiring.
A great tour, especially for enjoying the sights at your leisure without a large group. Our guide, Ali, explained things to us and took lots of photos, but above all, he also gave us the freedom to explore the places on our own, which I personally really liked. If you plan your time well, you can see lots of beautiful places. Definitely recommended.
