We had a beautiful day outside of Tokyo seeing the area adjacent to Mt. Fuji and Lake Kawaguchiko. Unfortunately, it was cloudy and we could only see the base of the mountain but we knew going into this trip to Japan that the mountain is obscured more days a year than it is visible so you have to manage expectations. Don’t book this tour if you feel you’re entitled to seeing the mountain or you’ll be disappointed when you don’t as the guides don’t control the weather. Usman was an excellent driver and guide and was very apologetic that we couldn’t see Mt. Fuji even though we reassured him we had realistic expectations going into the trip. The rural areas of Japan and the shrines are incredibly beautiful and we highly recommend this tour for those who like to leave the hustle and bustle of the city for a peaceful experience.
