A fantastic personalised adventure.

My family and I had an incredible time with Taka who was incredibly accommodating and great with our young kids. He included them always and made sure they were having fun too.

The tour was personalised to our preferences and felt like the exact right amount of time at each location (though I could have taken photos at Aokigahara for hours!)

Highly recommended!!

Takahisa, Thank you so much for getting my 18 yr old son Connor and I to the top of Mt. Fuji. We could not have done it without you! It was so much more difficult to do, but you kept us busy with your conversation. And you're awesome with your all your communications to help us plan for transportation, events, best restaurants, etc. Such an experience local expert, very prompt, reliable, and honest. I truly wish for the best for you and your family. Until we meet again.

Great experience and very friendly guide.

We booked at the very last minute and lucky for us our guide Taka had availability almost immediately.

We did a 2.5hour tour and it was well worth it.

Highly recommended tour.

A stress-free way of exploring the place

Before the tour, we were asked if we wanted to see any specific sight so they can add it to the itinerary, which I think great. Questions before the trip were also answered at a timely manner.

Taka, our tour guide, was right on time during pickup. He introduced a summary of the trip with a map to give us a rough idea of what is in store.

At each stop, he explained the history of the place and shared practices and beliefs of his people. We visited each place at a satisfying pace. He even provided us tea while enjoying the view at the Saiko lake!

The weather was cloudy during our trip but Taka was mindful enough to make a stop when the clouds covering the tip of Mt. Fuji cleared away so we can take some photos.

Overall, the trip provided us a relaxing way of exploring and knowing the area. I highly recommend this trip to those who hate wasted time from waiting for public transportation and not wanting to organize the trip!

It was a great, hassle-free tour we had with you, Taka. We even went over the 4-hour scheduled tour but you never rushed us. We’ve seen a lot of beautiful places, learned a lot about Japanese culture. And for that, thank you!

Thank you very much for the really excellent trip we experienced with you. We appreciate very much having seen all the beautiful spots you have shown us. We consider it as having been lucky to meet you because you arranged a tailor made trip just according to our requirements and we could visit locations we would not have seen otherwise all around the five lakes.

Thank you so much Mr.Takahisa It was an extremely amazing trip around Mt.Fuji with your guide. You drove us to many beautiful spots to view Mt.Fuji and also explained everything about the places and Japanese culture. He was very kind and helped us a lot with his great experience. We could go to many secret spots to have beautiful views of Mt. Fuji thanks to him. We had a perfect day thanks to your kindness and helpful advices. Wish you all the best!

Unforgettable Experience

Taka is a very friendly person, he was very patient with us and he knows his way around the mountain really well. He showed us some of the secret caves and paths...It was an overall great experience. He took us to seriously nice places which we wouldn’t be able to do it our selves. They were nice places and Taka also did not mind the extra time spent with us and we felt like home. His tour is highly recommended.

Many many thanks to you Taka for your patience, kindness, availability, beautiful explanations and locations seen ! 
We spent a wonderful time with you and saw Mont Fuji and all his treasures as it couldn't be seen if we ride around without you.
You're extremely precise and professional and we loved that.
We recommand to everybody this experience with you !
Hope to see you again in the future and keep in touch !

Guy and Eya, it was nice to meeting you there, thank you for talking to me.
I know it's often too busy here and you will feel tired for the crowd, then I'm happy to hear you tasted my tour and enjoyed this beautiful area.
We will keep the "treasures" and they are looking forward to see you again.
Take care of yourself and Best wishes to you two!
