We had a great day with Sia despite the clouds not cooperating. It was extremely impressive how she ran the day and translated into two languages fluently. Sia was very efficient and the whole day ran perfectly on time.

Lovely tour by Evita and co!
Evita was a wonderful tour guide, very outgoing and friendly. Well informed and shared a lot of great information and tips on the area. She and the driver were very friendly and ensured we all had a good time and were all on the bus (everyone made it safely there and back :) ). We had cloudy but nice weather, I'm grateful Mt. Fuji revealed herself by the end of our tour! I will definitely come again and stay at onsen next time as recommended!
