What people are saying about Tokyo

Guide Wang Hui was excellent. Very detailed and dedicated. Responsible too! Bus driver was equally friendly & punctual. The only thing was during booking, there was no other option other than "beef" meal & personally I cannot take beef. So get your guide should provide options for people with dietary requirement. Understand you would like to sell us the highest possible package but need to be more sensitive towards religion & conditions.

Started at 8:30 and takes a couple of hours to get there, with a break stop. Make sure you book for a clear skies sunny day, it’s beautiful and we ended up stopping 4 times! At different viewing areas and a lovely village at the end. The guide was amazing and he gave us some good insight and then you go and explore the area yourself. Great day out! Highly recommend.

The bus depart on time, we visited exactly the places they told us at the description of the tour. The places visited were amazing the only thing we could see Mt. Fuji because of the cloudy day.

Well thought out tour. Great vantage points to take My Fuji. Will recommend this tour.

The guide was excellent and sincere. Not pushy when it comes to recommendations
