    not what was written

    We chose this guided outing because the description said the list of things that could be done and that it was à la carte for 8 to 10 hours. After a few minutes drive, the guide tells us that it is not possible to make the itinerary we have chosen. indeed for him there are 2 circuits but we can not mix between the two. That is not what was written in the description. After discussion, it is finally possible to do both tours at the same time for an additional cash cost of $150 lowered to 17,000 yen. We chose this guided tour because the description listed the possible activities and stated it was customizable and would last 8 to 10 hours. After a few minutes on the road, the guide told us it wasn't possible to do the itinerary we had chosen. He explained that there were two separate circuits, but we couldn't combine them. This wasn't what was stated in the description. After some discussion, it was finally possible to do both circuits simultaneously for an additional fee of $150, reduced to 17,000 yen and payable in cash.

    Hurt by the Lie

    Our guide lied to us. He told us Mt. Fuji was closed. We found out after our guide dropped us off at the end of the day (only after he asked us to give him a 5 star review and screen shot it to him before letting us out of the car) that STATION 5 WASN’T CLOSED!. In fact, other tourists were taken there by different tour drivers that day. Words cannot describe how we feel. We paid for a private tour of Mt. Fuji and Hakone. If the guide didn’t want to do this, why did he take the assignment? He took us to areas where we could view Mt. Fuji ( one site had us walking up MANY Steps passed a Pagoda while our guide waited for us below). He provided limited, if any, information about the “replacement locations “ he chose to take us but THERE IS NO REPLACEMENT for Mt. Fuji! He took advantage of us. He called us his family. We are writing this so that the next travelers do not experience what we did. We hope the actions of this guide do not reflect the actions of other guides in your employ.

    Private Mount Fuji And Hakone Tour with English Guide: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tokyo.

    How much does Private Mount Fuji And Hakone Tour with English Guide cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1,000 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tokyo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private Mount Fuji And Hakone Tour with English Guide take?

    +

    Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tokyo is not rushed.

    Is Private Mount Fuji And Hakone Tour with English Guide worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 47 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.3/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tokyo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Mount Fuji And Hakone Tour with English Guide?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Private Mount Fuji And Hakone Tour with English Guide suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Mount Fuji And Hakone Tour with English Guide?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tokyo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tokyo and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Mount Fuji And Hakone Tour with English Guide start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tokyo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Tokyo?

    +

    Tokyo is less a city than a stack of neighborhoods with completely different opening hours. A guided food crawl through Shinjuku's Omoide Yokocho gets you past the no-tourist curtains, while the day trips west to Hakone and Fuji need an early start to be worth the fare. Our ranking weighs guide quality heavily here, because in Tokyo the guide is the product. On Outty we rank every Tokyo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Best of Shinjuku: Izakaya Food Tour (3-4 Stops, 14+ Tastings), Matcha Making Class in Tokyo with Authentic Japanese Sweets Set, Tokyo: Asakusa Senso-ji Temple & Old Town Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Tokyo?

    +

    Late March to May for blossom, October to November for clear Fuji views. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Tokyo?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
