What people are saying about Fujinomiya

Excellent communication with company and driver from the start of the booking process which was easy to navigate. Our driver, Bilal was flexible in accommodating our requests/changes etc suggesting options which suited us and providing us with general information about the places we visited - we felt a guide was unnecessary. The tour was the perfect way to see numerous sites which would have been difficult to get to if trying to organise it yourself via public transport.

Our driver Haider was fabulous. He’s came early to pick us up and ensure we were comfortable at every stop. He wasn’t just a driver, but knowledgeable where he was taking us to Mt Fuji. We enjoyed spending time with him and his professionalism with our family! Btw he takes amazing photos as well! Wish we could hire him throughout our time in Tokyo! Thank you so much Haider! -K & Family

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.

A full day private charter of a very nice and comfortable car. The driver was very friendly, speaks english very well (we got a native speaker), and has a reliable knowledge of all the nice spots around Fuji. Would definitely 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.
