Amazing views of Mt. Fuji!
Published on May, 2025
We had an amazing day with Shawn - he knew exactly where to get us perfect views of Fuji and the lunch at Motosu Lake was unforgettable. He adjusted our schedule to avoid crowds and was able to accommodate a trip to see the Shibazakura. He is also a great photographer and just all around awesome guy to talk to. I can’t say enough great things about this trip. We will be back for a separate trip with Shawn for sure!’
Mt Fuji framed by cherry blossom
Published on May, 2025
We had such an amazing day with Shawn. He took us to fantastic vantage points, and we were blessed with a combination of clear views of Mt Fuji as well as the cherry blossom in full bloom. Shawn's BBQ lunch was one of our best meals in Japan and it was inspiring to eat it with Mt Fuji in the background.
Perfect trip to visit Mt. Fuji
Published on Apr, 2025
This was the perfect trip to visit Mt Fuji. Everything: ride to the mountain, lakes, Sakura in bloom, magnificent Mt Fuji and of course bbq lunch on the shore of the lake with perfect view of the mountain was great. My son and I had perfect time to enjoy unparalleled views. Thank you Shawn for sharing this with us.
Unique and Unforgettable Mount Fuji
Published on Apr, 2025
This experience was so much fun! Getting to see Mount Fuji at an easy pace and in a relaxed atmosphere was perfect. Shawn is a fantastic guide, really knows the area, and cooked us a delicious BBQ. Easily one of our favorite things we got to experience in Japan. I would absolutely recommend this over any other kind of tour, hands down!
Fantastic tour!
Published on Mar, 2025
This day tour was amazing! Shawn our tour guide was so friendly, we had great chats all the way to our destination. We saw My Fuji from many locations - and although it was a little hazy on the day, Shawn did his absolute best to show us the views. The food he cooked was delicious, and it was perfect just sitting at the lake eating and looking straight ahead to Mt Fuji. Highly recommend.
