I am disappointed because of bad weather and my vision to conquer mt fuji was failed. In summary, the services given by La Vacanza Travel is excellent.

Used this tour group to summit Mt Fuji, pickup point easy to find. Worthwhile to use them fir guidance and doing the arrangements. Summit group large causing a lot of delays and group members having different levels of hiking experience a bit of inconvinience, too much starting and stopping. Would recommend that they reduce no of people per group. Did not do after summit tour, too tired got a bus from 5th station to Shinjuku. I recommend they cut this as after summit euphoria and tiredness there is little interest for other activities. I have done many hikes, Inca, Patagonia,Camino this is no in the park as many writers make us believe

We started the hike in fairly nice weather with high expectations and a little bit worried if we can make it to the top. These doubts were quickly met with an unexpected weatherchange, it became a raining hell for the next couple of kilometers. Nevertheless the group was still very motivated and in a jolly mood. Fortunatly ths was still the case, while the visibility sunk to approx 50 meteres and nothing was left of a long promised great view of japan from the ascending trail. After some time everyone and everthing was wet. But we kept climbing. Eventually while passing the 3000m mark .... nothing changed ... wait ... it became cold. Finally we made it to the 8th station and the promised land (mountain hut). We were greated with a reasonably well equipped shack at 3400m including a warm meal and hot tee. For everyone who was in need of new warm clothing after the heavy rain and fog and the generally cold weather, everything could be rented out, which was lifesaving. After this delightful end of day one, the whole crew was send to sleep in beautiful chambers with a lot of people per not such a lot of squaremeters. If you got some sleep you potentially belonged to the lucky snorers who fell asleep first ;). The wake up time was set at 2:00 am. After getting ready and gathering behind the hut we started our final battle uphill. The timing of the guides was always perfect and on point. So we made it up approx 50min before sunset and were able to get a great spot after starting the walk around the crater. Many thanks to the guides for that. As the sun was setting all problems troubles sleepless nights were forgotten immediately. So all in all nice trip, perfect guides, great timing and not too exhausting.

Both of our tour guides was beyond phenomenal and very helpful. This was my first hike ever that I've done in my life and even though it was a struggle for me they stayed with me all the way till the end and made sure everybody came back safe as scheduled. Will highly recommend this. Also, this hike was been the most fundamental thing I have ever done in my life. Bucket list has been completed. Will highly recommend!

The tour guides were very informative and made sure that we knew everything that is needed, from making sure that money for the restrooms or food on the mountain, had appropriate equipment, and so on. They really made sure people on the tour were ok. It was raining both days and we didn't end up getting to summit (stayed at the 8th station), but I had a lot of fun regardless and I thought it was worth it. The hike itself is not too difficult, but can take a long time depending on crowds. Next time I visit, I would feel comfortable navigating the mountain.
