Absolutely terrific trip. A bit of a chore having to drop off overnight travellers at their hotel, but thoroughly enjoyed it even though the weather packed up and views to Mt Fuji in the afternoon were nonexistent. Great guide, great concept and great value for money!

Fantastic trip, guide was very enthusiastic and informative. We were lucky that Fuji was completely clear when we went, the guide was telling us that it is rare for that to happen. Note that you will be on the bus a lot. Hotel to bus station to Fuji Visitor Center to 5th station to Lake AshiHakone Komagatake Ropeway to Odawara Station is all by bus. Time to shop for souvenirs at each stop. Taking the bullet train back was a nice finishing touch, although you may arrive back at Tokyo Station during rush hour. Tip 1: You can take pictures of Fuji at the Fuji Visitor Center, but one the widest, least obstructed views is on the bus ride over, so you may want to sit on the left side and have your camera ready. Tip 2: You can use your bullet train ticket to transfer onto a JR train to get back to your hotel, as there is no drop off service. Tip 3: You can opt to use your bullet train ticket to travel elsewhere in Japan. One couple brought their luggage and used it to go to Yokohama.

It was by far the easiest and best way to see Mt. Fuji. The guide was very good and very informative on the way there. We chose lunch on our own and were very rushed to get on the bus. The Italian restaurant took a long time to get our pizzas out. It was a wonderful day and had a great time. It was a great taste of it all. It was a better price than others listed.
