    Went with my wife. The sights were pretty, but ngl, it was suuuper crowded at the main spot (guess that’s what you get on a weekend). Jorge handled the crowd like a pro though, kept cracking jokes. The only downer was we felt a bit rushed at the last stop. Still had a good time, and learned a lot about the area we’d never get on our own. Otsuka drove so smooth you barely noticed the traffic jams. Bring snacks if you get hungry fast.

    I’m kind of a tour skeptic, but this one totally changed my mind. Went solo, was a bit nervous at first, but Jorge (guide) and Otsuka (driver) made everyone feel welcome from the second we hopped in the van. Jorge’s stories about local customs were cooool (didn’t know you shouldn’t stick chopsticks upright in rice! Whoops). The weather wasn’t perfect—cloudy, so Fuji was hiding—but the rest made up for it. Loved the little snack stop, and Otsuka somehow made Tokyo traffic seem like a breeze. Left with a head full of quirky facts and actually new friends. 10/10 would drag my friends next time.

    Group trip with friends! Jorge is hilarious and knows literally everything about Japan (or pretends well). There was a little rain but we still managed to enjoy all the stops. Otsuka’s driving is LEGENDARY, seriously. Bring an umbrella just in case.

    It was…fine? I mean, guide was friendly, but we got stuck in traffic for what felt like forever so the schedule kinda went out the window. Plus, weather was meh, couldn’t see much from the viewpoint. Liked that Jorge still kept spirits up with stories and snacks. Not sure I’d do it again, but it was a decent day.
