I was very satisfied with the itinerary. Although I was unable to go up to the volcano due to heavy fog, I still went to many places. It is a good choice to go to Mount Fuji Hakone.

Fantastic views of Mt Fuji. The skywalk bridge itself is an engineering marvel and worth seeing if you are into structures. It has won awards for its design and integration into the mountainous area. It was funded by a private firm recognizing the opportunity to improve tourism in the town of Mishima. The bridge opened in 2015 so it in fact does have a toursity vibe but the views of Mt Fuji are spectacular. There is zip lining which looked very fun. One can watch the zip liners from the bridge which was entertaining. We went to the top observation deck once across the bridge where people had brought their own picnics to enjoy the beauty and views. We ate at Tree Tree Tree restaurant which was very nice. You can order a basket (drink/ fries and sandwich or hot dog) and it is served in a traditional basket that you can then go and have your own 'Picnic" at the upper observation deck. Upon entry, you get a 50 yen coupon to use toward soft serve ice cream. It was the best ice cream I had in Japan. The bus ride from the Mishima rail station takes about 40 minutes. We actually missed our bullet train back to Tokyo and had to wait another 30 minutes so plan extra time. It is well worth the stop off the bullet train at Mishima and an easy way to see Mt Fuji.

Thanks to our tour guide Aileen for rearranging the itinerary according to the weather that day, we were lucky enough to see Mount Fuji. The itinerary was quite compact, and although the stay was short, it was a good experience to be able to visit multiple attractions at once.

The weather was not good, so I thought I wouldn't be able to see Mount Fuji, but I ended up seeing it in the afternoon. The itinerary was good, the driver was nice and considerate, and the overall experience was good.

It's very cold in the car in summer... It feels like winter. It's great. The service staff are very nice and polite. They look like the star Kimura Takuya. They drive very smoothly and arrive at every attraction. It just depends on the weather that day. If you're lucky, you can see Mount Fuji
