“Full day tour of Mt Fuji area with various highlights ”
Our tour with Ryohei K. could not have been more perfect. It was a great way to explore the mt Fuji region and see all beautiful things it has to offer with a fantastic guide who knew all the amazing places to go to. Ryohei drove us to many beautiful spots - some of them that you would never know about as a tourist. He was super flexible with the program and adjusted it perfectly to our needs (we wanted a short bike ride included in our day). He also recommended a great local place to have lunch. I would recommend this tour to everyone who wants to explore the area with a fantastic local guide who knows all about the area, has great suggestions and can provide a lot of background information about the things you see!
