Wonderful Mt. Fuji & Hakone Day Trip with a Fantastic Guide!

We had a wonderful experience on the Mt. Fuji and Hakone 1-Day Bus Tour from Tokyo, including the return journey by bullet train. We arrived at the meeting point around 7:30 AM, checked in, and received stickers identifying our tour group. Everything was well organized, and our bus departed at approximately 8:00 AM. After about two hours of driving, we reached Mt. Fuji’s 5th Station, located at an elevation of 2,305 meters (7,562 feet). We had around 45 minutes to explore, take photos, enjoy the beautiful autumn scenery, and appreciate the incredible atmosphere of Japan’s most famous mountain. From there, we continued to a restaurant for lunch before heading to Hakone, where we enjoyed a scenic ropeway ride followed by a short cruise on Lake Ashi. It was a great combination of mountain scenery, sightseeing, and different experiences throughout the day. A special thank you to our lovely tour guide, Na-chan, a 25-year-old local Japanese guide from Hiroshima. She was friendly, cheerful, enthusiastic, and full of energy. Throughout the journey, she shared interesting information, explained the different stops, and made sure everyone felt welcome. To finish the day, we returned to Tokyo by bullet train (Shinkansen), which was an exciting experience in itself and a perfect way to end the tour. Overall, we really enjoyed the entire experience. It was a well-organized, enjoyable day with beautiful scenery, a wonderful guide, and plenty of great memories. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Tokyo who wants to experience Mt. Fuji and Hakone in one day!

Pleasant tour

It was rainy wet and cold. Had the weather been sunny the tour would have been thoroughly enjoyable. Nevertheless, our tour guide Meg did her best to keep us entertained.

Good experience

Well organized, despite the weather not being in our favour today . Meg was a good host and she did her best to entertain us while we were en route to the attractions. Will book with Japan Panoramic Tours again.
