Enjoyable day trip out of Tokyo

ANDREW_T, Dec 2025
My family of 4 booked this trip and Aaryen was our driver. He arrived in advance before 5.30am at our agreed timing as he advised us the day before to leave early to avoid heavy traffic and have more time for sightseeing instead of wasting hours in the notorious traffic jams. Aaryen was very obliging to suit where we wanted to go and he planned accordingly the route. We did not go exactly the route shown on Viator but spent half of our day sightseeing and the other half shopping at Gotemba Premium Outlets unintentionally, lots of laughs for our family because we intended to only go there for 3 hours but ended shopping there for 6 hours as it is a really huge shopping complex. Due to this, we exceeded the max hours on the trip but we were fine to pay the fees for the extra hours which the company was flexible to accommodate. Family had an enjoyable day trip out of Tokyo.

Trip with Ryu

Roota_A, Sep 2025
Wonderful experience, Ryu was excellent! Share a lot about Japanese culture and made wonderful recommendations during the day and was extremely informative as well as likable.

Not a guided tour for us

Mylin_W, Jul 2025
I booked this tour thinking this is a guided tour which it clearly states in the “what to expect “ portion . I don’t know if Viator and the tour operator had miscommunications. Our driver is a wonderful and friendly driver but not really a guide . He was very punctual. He brought us to beautiful places but told us how much time to stay in one place and he stayed in the vehicle or was on his phone . It was not a guided tour . We were pretty much left on our own to explore . I was jealous of the other families whose guides were with them in the temples or shrines explaining things to them . I paid $474.00 for this because of the guided tour but we did not have a guide . Just a driver , very friendly but not a guide . He went with us just to one place and took 1 picture for our family which we’re grateful for . After the tour on the way to dropping us off to our hotel , he was asking for a review on the link that he sent me which he said I need to do in 3 minutes but the link was a wrong tour that costs $400. I was not happy about this . I think Viator sent us to the wrong tour operator . Our driver repeatedly asked me to do the review and I told him I will not review the link since it was the wrong tour and not the one I paid for . Asking me to review the link is not very professional in my opinion . I have the prerogative to review or not and to give review in my own time and not demand my opinion right there and then which I found very offensive . Overall , the experience was good except very disappointed that there was no guided tour for us .

Thank you for your detailed feedback. We sincerely apologize that your recent tour did not meet your expectations of a guided experience, especially since it was advertised as such and was a significant factor in your booking decision. We understand your frustration at paying for a guided tour and receiving only a driver, however friendly and punctual he may have been. We also apologize for the unprofessional conduct regarding the review request at the end of your tour. It is completely unacceptable for a driver to pressure you into leaving a review, especially for the wrong tour, and to demand it be done within a specific timeframe. We have a strict policy against such behavior, and we assure you we will address this issue directly with the driver involved to prevent similar incidents in the future.

Excellent day tour with Ryu. Very knowledgeable tour guide.

Bernard_L, Mar 2025
We had great weather and Mt Fugi clearly visible, it is a very long day and traffic conditions and large crowds can slow down the day.

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Thank you for your review! We understand that the time of year can make the experience somewhat tiring due to traffic and crowds. We hope, however, that the view of Mt. Fuji made it worthwhile!

Mt Fuji and Hakone tours

Remelyn_M, Feb 2025
Haris is our tour guide and driver for this trip. He pick us up on time at the lobby of our hotel. His car is clean and comfortable. He is very knowledgeable of each site we visited. He did not rush us, he took our pictures and he even pay for our museum ticket cause we did not have cash on hand. Mt Fuji is beautiful. Added bonus it flurries while we are at the pagoda.

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled you had such a great time and that you'll take away some fantastic memories.

Amazing Day Trip to see Mt. Fuji, Shrines and area.

Jagraj_B, Jul 2024
We had an amazing trip with Ryu! He was so knowledgeable and we learned so much about the rich history and culture of Japan. Unfortunately it was cloudy and raining so it wasn’t the best day to see Mt Fuji but Ryu took us to amazing spots in and around the area, shrines, great local sushi restaurant, lakes and markets. What an unforgettable experience and I HIGHLY Recommend!!!! Very worth the price and would do it again on my next trip back.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

We're thrilled to hear that you had an amazing trip and that you enjoyed learning about the rich history and culture of Japan. We understand that the weather didn't fully cooperate for your visit to Mt. Fuji, but we're glad that your day was memorable by taking you to other fantastic spots in the area. Your recommendation and feedback are incredibly valuable, and we're delighted to hear that you found the experience worth the price. We look forward to welcoming you back on your next trip to Japan and providing you with another unforgettable adventure.

Ryu the best!

Cristian_D, Jun 2024
I could explain here Ryu's great kindness and good service, the perfect itinerary that Ryu recommended to us, Ryu's great explanations of the Japanese way of life and culture, but my recommendation is that you don't think twice and book a tour with Ryu now to experience it for yourself! Our trip to Japan would not have been the same without this tour. Thank you once again for your treatment and service. Ryu, you are the best, and it is impossible to find a better alternative.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Dear Cristian, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! Ryu is thrilled to hear that the itinerary and service met your expectations and made your trip memorable. It was his pleasure to guide you and share the beauty of Japan's culture and way of life. Your kind words mean a lot to him. If you ever return to Japan, Ryu would be delighted to show you even more. Thank you once again for your trust and recommendation!

A great day by Mt Fuji.

Helen_S, Apr 2024
We really enjoyed our tour with Ryu. He gave us a great view of life in Japan as well as planning a fun itinerary with lots of information provided. This saved heaps of hassle personally planning the day and getting to and from places within Mt Fuji, and Hakone. He was professional and a great driver. The car was clean, spacious and comfortable for the trip. If I could do it again I would focus the day on Mt Fuji, since my kids didn't want to do Hakone hot springs or the boat cruise, so it would have saved time traveling between the two and we could have spent more time at the museum Ryu took us to. Additionally he helped us locate and arrange shipment of a lost backpack we managed to leave behind traveling Kyoto to Tokyo which we were extremely grateful for. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. Thanks so much!

Response from Host, Apr 2024

It's wonderful to hear that you had such a positive experience with us! It's great that Ryu was able to assist you with locating and arranging the shipment of your lost backpack, showcasing his commitment to ensuring your overall experience was seamless. Your feedback about focusing more on Mt. Fuji for the day is valuable, especially with regards to optimizing your time and maximizing your enjoyment. Thank you for sharing your experience, and here's to many more memorable adventures in the future!
