Set in the Asagiri Highlands at the western foot of Mt. Fuji, this small-group taxi tour is a rather unorthodox one. The theme of this tour is "Challenge and Experience," with opportunities for you to actually participate in various activities.
JR Shin-Fuji Station or your hotel in Fuji City
JR Shin-Fuji Station or your hotel in Fuji City
Guide fee, tour guide's transportation fees.
・Taxi fare (we use a chartered taxi for transportation. I'll contact you via text message with an approximate price).
・Price for the tandem paraglider flight: 10,000 yen per person (10,000 yen is about 91 USD as of May 2019).
・Admission to the Japanese-style bathhouse: between 600 and 900 yen per person.
・Asagiri Food Park is admission-free, but some of the activities it offers require fees and prior booking (the prices and details are different for each activity).
・The (optional) animal farm requires an admission fee, and so does the trout fishing pond.
・In the event of rain or strong wind, paraglider flight are not offered. But fortunately, this area provides a relatively large number of alternative options to choose from. So, if you take this tour, I hope you will also consider alternative activities in that case.
・For a paragrider flight, you are kindly advised to wear long-sleeve shirts, pants, and sports shoes.
・If your weight exceeds 100 kilograms (220 pounds), I am sorry but you are not permitted to take the paraglider flight.
・For the Japanese-style bathing, you are kindly advised to bring your own towel and bath towel if possible, because renting or buying these at the facility requires an extra cost.
Please refrain from resorting to the "direct booking." I hope you will book after we reach an agreement over the total price (including the taxi fare) through the exchange of text messages.

“Excellent day with Koji”
We had a great day with Koji and Tetsu. Koji was extremely well organized and ensured that we saw a number of beautiful sites in the area. Tetsu is an excellent driver, communicated well with us and contributed greatly to our very positive day. Koji speaks very good English, had many relevant and important pieces of information and history to share with us and willingly answered all of our questions. He had a microphone in the van which was extremely helpful and appreciated. Our day was made more special by Mt.Fuji appearing and staying in clear view all day! Thank you Koji and Tetsu for giving us such a wonderful day and for ensuring that Mt.Fuji was so visible.????
