“Absolutely wonderful”
Our party of 4 was met by yasuko (or Jasmine as she asked us to call her). She was an incredible guide, knowledgeable, and very flexible as we made some changes to our plans. She was able to meet all our must sees including a short ride on the bullet chain. You cannot go wrong with having Jasmine as your guide in the Mt. Fuji area.

We had an excellent day chasing the perfect view of Mt. Fuji with the very knowledgeable guide Moto. He is also a hiking guide for those who want to climb the mountain. We could only recommend him as a guide!
