Mr. Shi (?) aka Ben was our guide on 4/25/2024. He did a fantastic job organizing the trip and keeping us on schedule. On the bus trip he gave us many interesting facts about Japanese history and details about the places we visited. We got extremely lucky that it was a beautiful, sunny day and Mt. Fuji was in perfect view. Also - Ben’s English and Chinese proficiency were both exceptional.

I had a terrible experience with the tour guid named George. In one stop he told us to get back at 2:20, but everything was crowded and I got back at 2:26, the bus was gone. I tried to message or call the tour operator, but the call didn't go through. Luckily my friend who was assigned to the other bus told his tour guide, that I was left alone at the parking lot, then another bus picked me up. George not only failed to take his responsibility to ensure everyone on board, later on he also lied that he waited for me for more than 15 minutes, which is a shameless lie. I have phone calls and text messages as proof. He left me more than 100km away from Tokyo, I had no way to get back if the lady on the other bus didn't pick me up. Strictly speaking I shouldn't be late, but he wasn't on time at earlier stops, and said that the bus driver could wait 10 minutes. In general I should give only one star, the extra two star is for beautiful view of Mt. Fuji and the helpful lady on the other bus who picked me up.

Absolutely beautiful. Do yourself a favor and order the steak for lunch!!! Yum. The village at the end stole my heart. Lots of cherry blossoms, souvenirs, and spots for photos.

What can I say? all went perfectly ok thanks to a wonderful host. From the start, you get shown a list of names and there you can see which bus you are allocated to and what seat number you have. On board our tour guide gave us multiple stories and anecdotes along the way. The scenery on the way to the mountains is beautiful. We had 4 stops in all and each stop we had a full hour to explore and longer at the Pagoda. The lunch was fantastic, I had the noodles but the people who had the beef loved it to. There was plenty of time to explore, to go to the shops and get to know other solo travellers. The queue to the Pagoda view spot takes a bit of time but it is well managed at the top. I would recommend checking the weather forecast before booking. We had a beautiful day and were lucky with the cherry blossoms. The thatched houses village is nice and you get to discover a lot of craft there. I can't thank enough our guide who was called: Micchan_haga. would highly recommend. worth every penny.
