Reviews

Great Mount Fuji day-trip!

Aissam was all around wonderful for our Mount Fuji day trip! Past glowing reviews convinced me to book with him and I’m so glad we did. He was very flexible with our requests and found ways to avoid crowds when possible, showed us yummy snacks to try, and found the most amazing lunch place with gorgeous views of Mount Fuji! It was also super helpful that he spoke both Japanese and English fluently as well as French (my mother tongue) and Arabic (to practice with our daughter who’s learning Arabic). Our two teenage kids enjoying his humor and stories! Thanks, Aissam for a fantastic day :)

Thank you so much for this amazing review! It truly made my day reading it. I’m really happy we could make your Mount Fuji trip special and that everything came together, from avoiding the crowds to enjoying great food with those views It was such a pleasure spending the day with your family, and I’m especially glad your kids enjoyed the stories and humor. And practicing languages together was a bonus I loved! Thank you again for your trust. I genuinely appreciate it and hope to see you again in Japan someday.

Great Way to See Tokyo and Yokohama
