    Pickup details

    Pick-up locations are available in the greater Tokyo area. The regular pick-up time is 6 AM due to Traffic. But we're flexible so just tell us what time works best for you! From hotels in Tokyo to the snow monkeys is usually a 3-hour and a half trip. Which, if you consider the hassle of changing trains, busses, and subways really is not that much longer than traveling by public transport. We also offer a 3 AM start option for those who want to maximize their day!

    Great tour
    Marty_P, Apr 2024
    It was great to see the snow monkeys, Kye did a great job and the vehicle was comfortable. Kye knew the perfect timing to see the snow monkeys
    Excellent tour, worth the drive!
    Stacy_M, Mar 2024
    This was a fantastic experience! Kye was a wonderful guide, knowledgeable and fun. It is a long day trip from Tokyo but he made it go by quickly. I would recommend warm cloths and crampons in winter. Highly recommend.
    Unforgettable day and view of Mt Fuji
    Jordann_f, Aug 2023
    Kye was a fantastic guide. He was super knowledgeable and speaks perfect English. He was able to answer all of our questions and more. We managed to see 2 shrines, a hilltop view and a lakeside view of my Fuji with fantastic visibility. We left Tokyo at 8am. If we did it again we would go with Kye’s recommendation to leave earlier to beat the traffic and would have saved an hour of driving. The van was a 6 seater, super luxurious and comfortable with strong AC, leg room, reclining functions and Netflix to keep us entertained. We are so grateful to Kye who really made our day perfect. He was super flexible and accomodating to our needs and desires. He also gave us great tips of what else we should see and do in Tokyo for the remainder of our stay. We would recommend for all
    Great experience in the Mt Fuji area

    Mt Fuji was spectacular and we really enjoying browsing around the shops in one of the local villages.
    An unforgettable immersion in timeless Japanese culture—without language and itinerary barriers
    LucioJr_R, Jun 2023
    This tour was amazing! We were actually debating whether we needed a guide or not, but after today, we are so glad we chose to take this package! We were able to see more scenic routes and take more memorable pictures because the tour guide was so flexible. We were originally supposed to stop by a traditional village first, but the tour guide saw at that time that we would have a good chance of seeing the peak of Mt. Fuji and altered the schedule to accommodate that. If he didn’t adjust, we might have not gotten a chance to see the peak at all. The tour guide was good natured and highly responsive: when one of us got injured, he went out of the way to stop by a pharmacy to buy some bandages and medicine. He was really nice and directed us to the best spots to take pictures. On the drive back, he even gave suggestions for good and affordable food all around Tokyo, which was really helpful for us tourists! We were able to see all the key spots and finished on schedule so we weren’t too tired by the end. Learning about Japan during this tour was very relaxed, making it easier to remember rather than an uncomfortable information dump full of facts that you have no way of recalling. Having a native English speaker was definitely a great help. The car also had a TV to stream Netflix with on the long drive back. Also the complimentary peach water was so refreshing. 👌🏻
