Kuzi was fantastic he gave great advice about wear to go and where to buy souvenirs around Japan. Also our guide was very patient with us when we were late coming back from each checkpoint
Although it was raining, we were still able to see and experience the history of Mt Fuji. Our guide Kuci. Was amazing and very knowledgeable as well as kind and friendly. His attitude made the trip even better despite the rain. Would recommend this tour and his service.
Kuzi was very good and professional
It was just 3 of us in the car. We started at 7 am and got back at about 5 pm. We had the best time. The guide is knowledgeable and very friendly. We learned so much about the culture and traditions while driving and talking. The route was customized according to our preferences which was nice especially if traveling with kids. Unfortunately we couldn’t see the mt. Fuji due to the clouds covering it. So we have to come back and do it again! But visiting all other places was incredibly interesting.
Visiting Mount Fuji was an unforgettable experience. The views were absolutely breathtaking, especially during sunrise. The area was clean, peaceful, and perfect for photography. Highly recommended for nature lovers!”
I had a tour with Rizi , he was really a nice guy and he showed beautiful places around Mount Fuji and the views are so beautiful I can’t explain those views in my words,I recommend everyone to have tour with Rizi . Thank you so much Rizi again .
Before the tour started we benefited from Kash's expertise. Could we start a bit earlier in order to beat the rush. We are so glad we did. Kash was great company throughout the day. We talked about life in Japan and the UK. The tour itself was perfect. We started at the Ice Caves and were the only ones there. From there we went to Saiko Iyashi-no-Sato Nemba Traditional Village. Kash told us about the disaster that befell the village and was able to point us in the direction of the best bits. We made a brief stop at Saiko Lake, then onto Oishi Park. Kash was able to drop us off and collect us safely while minimising the amount of walking. We finished at Chureito Pagoda. Once back in Tokyo Kash drove us past Senso-ji, he wanted to make sure we knew where to go the next day. Overall, Kash was the perfect host for a day sightseeing. Would 100% recommend.
A magical and romantic tour The places and sights were truly magical and romantic. We both enjoyed strolling through the city, visiting museums, the Louvre, taking a river cruise, and so much more. We especially loved the macarons that perfectly ended our day tour on such a sweet and memorable note. Tour Up in Europe made everything feel seamless and special. The booking department, especially Vanisha, organised everything according to our needs, making the entire experience very convenient and comfortable. Vanisha and the team were professional, efficient, kind, warm, attentive to our questions, and always very accommodating. A special mention as well to our guide Maria, who made the tour easy, enjoyable, and engaging throughout the day. We also want to thank our driver Camel, who was incredibly helpful and attentive, making sure we were comfortable until we safely returned to the hotel. The whole experience exceeded our expectations. We truly appreciate these beautiful memories that we will always remember. Rest assured, we will gladly recommend Tour Up in Europe to our family and friends.
Amazing night tour with beautiful city views and a very professional guide. The itinerary was well planned, and we had enough time at each location without feeling rushed. Tokyo Skytree, Sensoji Temple, and Odaiba were definitely highlights of the evening. This tour is perfect for couples, families, or anyone wanting to experience Tokyo after dark in a comfortable and enjoyable way.
