Kanto

The journey was convenient, the meeting point was easy to find, communication with the tour leader was easy, and they spoke excellent English. All the tourist spots were covered, and the itinerary wasn't too packed.

My family of 6 rode with Fukuyama-san over an 8-hour tour within Kawaguchiko and then back to Tokyo. He was professional and courteous and we really enjoyed chatting with him. My family is quite international and we could converse with him in different languages, which was a lot of fun. He knew Kawaguchiko well and could recommend the best places to visit and arrange logistics on where to park, drop us off, etc. He explained clearly the best places to meet back up and was continuously punctual. His car itself was clean and comfortable for all of us. On the drive back to Tokyo, we hit really bad traffic and he was mindful of when we might need a bathroom break so as also to optimize our return time. We would highly recommend him to others. Thank you Fukuyama-san for a great trip!

I participated in a day trip to Mount Fuji departing from Shinjuku on May 1st, 2015. Although it started raining as soon as I woke up, I have to say Oshino Hakkai is beautiful. Lunch isn't necessary, as there are tons of delicious street food options. While the lobster hot pot we had for lunch was tasty, it was a shame we missed out on the local snacks. I'm very grateful to our tour guide, Chang Pei-wen, a native of Hsinchu, Taiwan. She was incredibly friendly and provided comprehensive explanations of the sights. When it was time to leave Oshino Hakkai, Mount Fuji suddenly appeared, but instead of rushing us, she let us take as many photos as we wanted. After boarding the bus, the sun finally came out, leading to a vote in the group to change the itinerary. She even said that if even one person disagreed, it wouldn't be allowed. She was an excellent tour guide. Thankfully, the group was very united, and we were able to see Mount Fuji at all the places we visited. Our guide even stood in the sun to find the perfect angle and created a time-lapse video of the entire mountain for everyone. It was incredibly thoughtful. I hope everyone who participates in this tour will have such a perfect tour guide!
