Private Mt. Fuji day trip from Tokyo with an English guide, hotel pickup, and flexible stops at Chureito Pagoda and Fuji lakes.

“Our tour of Mount Fuji was great and Amir was an excellent guide and driver. It was a foggy and cloudy day, but the fifth station was above the clouds and we could clearly see the mountain at that point. We also sprung for the boat ride, and the lunch at a Japanese restaurant was lovely. Amir was a great driver, his minivan was really large and comfortable, and he gave us plenty of time at each stop. Overall, the private tour was well worth the money.”
