If you are going to Mt Fuji - Hakone - Gotemba, booking a chartered tour is the way to go if you want convenience and does not mind paying more for transportation :)

This was an excellent trip. Decided to visit Mt. Fuji in October with my young son and asked the guide - Khizer - to concentrate on child friendly activities and areas. We all thoroughly enjoyed the experience and my son had the time of his life. Khizer is super friendly, has excellent English + Japanese and answered all the questions we had. He also had brilliant tit-bits about things which kept us all captivated the entire time. His in-depth knowledge of both the geography and history of the places we visited was outstanding and made this a most memorable experience. We were super delighted that Khizer adjusted the tour to our requirements making this a wonderful day out for my family. Could not have asked for a nicer experience with an extremely pleasant guide. Thank you very much Khizer! The van was very clean and came equipped with hand sanitizers and masks thus giving us comfort during these times of coronavirus. Looking forward to our next trip...

The flexibility to chose locations that suited our wants and abilities was great. Hiro San was very quick to put together an itinerary that accommodated a family with a stroller-baby (no monkey park due to long unpacked walking paths). Taking in the beautiful temples and view of the Kyoto from the west was breath taking and the guide was able to explain many things we as new Japanese learners could not read or know through cultural knowledge. Overall a great experience, a wonderful and lively guide, and some great memories.

Super recommended service. Koki, a very friendly driver with a comfortable and clean car. He waited all the time needed to get out of the airport due to covid measures and the ride was really enjoyable, after arriving at the destination he even helped me finding the exact apartment for good 10 minutes! Again super recommended.

We chose this experience so we could fit a number of sights into a single day as we could since we were only spending 3 full days in Kyoto. This allowed us to focus on seeing the things we wanted to rather than transportation between each sight. Marine-san worked with us over email to come up with an itinerary that was efficient and included the majority of the sights that we wanted to see. On the day Shenji-san sent us a message so we had his contact details and arrived promptly at our hotel. He drove us to each location, took photos of us (so we could all be in them!), and gave us additional facts about each location. He was a fantastic host for the day and we'd highly recommend this experience.
