“We had an amazing day trip to Mt Fuji! Hassan picked us up at our hotel early in the morning and explained to us what we where doing and what places he suggested we visit, always letting us know that we where in charge and we could visit what we wanted. He took us to some beautiful places to take pictures with the mountain and as the day progressed the view of the mountain stoped cooperating with us and we could no longer see it but Hassan tried his best to give us better views, when we decided that it was just not a good day for mt. Fuji pictures…”

“We had a wonderful tour with Tachi-san who guided us for four hours through Tokyo. She recommended sites but also incorporated areas we asked to see more of. We had a great time. Tachi was very knowledgeable and told us a lot about Tokyo, Japanese history and culture. She also gave us lots of great recommendations. We had already been in Japan for three weeks but learned lots of new things. Highly recommended this as a way to get grounded in Tokyo which can feel very overwhelming.”

“The scenery was beautiful. However, our guide did not speak. There was no explanation of what we were seeing or what to expect at our destinations. He did not communicate and we often had to wait up to 20 minutes for him to pick us up from the stop. There was no water in the vehicle for us, which has always been standard. We have used Viator when we travel quite often and recommend the service to our friends. However, this experience was the worst we have ever had and will be rethinking our approach in the future.”
