“We had the bad luck to have our one tour day on our week to Tokyo be the one day that week with poor weather. It was drizzling a light mist in Shinjuku when we found the hotel to meet up (inside the hotel), and we had a nice bus ride through the countryside. It was great to see the forests so different from my home in California, and the villages with little farm plots in between the houses. We got up to the mountain, and it was actually a bit clear, the sun came out and we saw a bit of blue sky, but it was still too cloudy…”

“An excellent your with a very knowledgeable guide ( YUI ) , who entertained and looked after us all day.

“So happy we chose this company for our once-in-a-lifetime Mt. Fuji trip! Our guide, Tom, was fantastic—extremely knowledgeable and attentive—which made the experience even more memorable. The only hiccup, not the company’s fault, was that a few fellow travelers didn’t respect the schedule, leaving us with only 5 minutes at the final stop. Aside from that, it was an unforgettable adventure!”
