The guide was a bit difficult to understand, I would have liked more information about the areas we drove through and especially the Fujiyoshida Comotaph Monument. I did not know how what it was for until I labored up the hill and read the sign.

It’s wonderful to be able to photograph those nooks and crannies from the other side, allowing you to admire the perfect harmony and controlled contrast between the modern and the ancient. I also liked the fact that there were covered seating areas, which offered shelter during heavy rain, and that it was possible to get off at the stop of your choice to explore the area. On the other hand, I didn’t like the extremely long wait times between buses.

The suggested routes are excellent. Schedules are followed. It should be noted that the audio system providing the most valuable information about each landmark is accessed via a cell phone and an internet connection.

Well we covered the entire city in a day which would not have been possible otherwise. The buses were bang on time and thus one could plan the excursions accordingly and return to catch the bus for the next destination.

Excellent tour. Buses turned up on time and all the staff were courteous and helpful if we had any queries. The commentary was interesting. All in all it was a good day out at a reasonable cost.

Great way to see Tokyo. It would have been nice if more of the busses had closed cabins on top
