“What a fantastic tour with Vohra. Highly recommend. We had a wonderful tour seeing so many sights - Mt Fuji, the gardens, cable car, village, waterfall, shrine and a delicious lunch. Early start that had us back in Tokyo by 3pm. The perfect day out. Vohra also very kindly took many photos and videos of our day that are such a fabulous momento.”

Mt. Fuji Day Trip from Tokyo with English Speaking Driver Guide

5.Mt. Fuji Day Trip from Tokyo with English Speaking Driver Guide

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 443 reviews

Review of a private Mt. Fuji day trip from Tokyo with hotel pickup, flexible stops, English-speaking driver guides, costs, and practical advice.

“We recently went on a tour to Mt. Fuji, and overall, it was a beautiful and memorable experience. The weather was perfect — clear skies all day — and we were lucky enough to get an incredible view of Mt. Fuji. The stops along the way were enjoyable and well-planned, and the day felt truly special. Traveling from our hotel in Tokyo took about 3 hours due to traffic leaving the city. Our guide, Mani, had kindly warned us ahead of time that leaving earlier would help beat the traffic, but being from the US East Coast and coming off a late night, we were okay with the slower pace.…”
