Skip the trains while carrying your super heavy luggage and just take this bus to get to the main city area in Tokyo! Super convenient and hassle free because your luggage is kept under the bus in the storage area and you just rest inside the bus! very comfortable experience that I would recommend to anyone!

Generally speaking, it is similar to my last experience. The whole process was very smooth. The difference from last time is the level of the set meal, but in fact, it is still full. I think it is enough if you have experienced it.

The pick-up and drop-off location is clear! You won’t be able to find it! The tour guide will contact you the day before~ The car is also very comfortable. During the process, the tour guide will also introduce the next attractions to recommend. Although I did not see the complete Mount Fuji this time, it is still worth recommending!

My family and I had a pleasant trip to Mt. Fuji. We visited several must-see destinations in the area, including Kawaguchiko Station, Oishi Park, the Maple Corridor, and the Arakura Fuji Sengen Shrine. However, it took us an unexpected three hours to reach Kawaguchiko from Tokyo due to heavy traffic, which consumed a lot of our time. Fortunately, the return journey to Tokyo was quicker, although it still took longer than we would have liked. In total, we only managed to visit four locations in the limited span of ten hours. We had originally planned to visit more attractions, such as the Mt. Fuji Panoramic Ropeway, Hikawa Clock Shop, and Fuji-Q Highland, but those places were either overcrowded with tourists or too far away. I recommend that anyone planning a similar trip consider visiting on a less busy weekday during the low tourist season. Overall, the locations we visited were wonderful, although the weather was quite cloudy that day, preventing us from seeing the full glory of Mt. Fuji. I suppose luck plays a role in such visits. As for our transportation, the vehicle was comfortable, clean, and spacious. Our driver, Mr. Meng, was very friendly and informative. He not only provided details about the locations we wanted to see but also offered to help us queue for lunch at Momijitei-Hoto, which we ultimately decided not to visit, and we felt sorry about that. Knowing that I couldn’t get a good picture of Mt. Fuji, he even sent me some of the nice photos he took via WhatsApp after the trip. I highly recommend booking him for your trip, but keep in mind that he only speaks Mandarin, Japanese, and a few English words, which may make communication a bit challenging for English speakers. In conclusion, I would rate this trip a solid 8/10. I highly recommend it!
