CANCELLATION POLICY

Fuji was the highlight of our trip thanks to Hiretaxi Japan

Hire Taxi Japan is simply the BEST taxi service in Tokyo. If I could give a 6 star rating I would!! Our family had the most memorable visit to Mount Fuji thanks to Daniel-san and our driver/guide. Taro-san, the most professional, knowledgeable, insightful, thoughtful guide you'll ever have the chance to meet. We were looking forward to visiting Fuji as part of our trip to Japan and had initially reserved with another tour cie a white back. Needless to say i was a bit in a panic mode when i called Hire Taxi Japan when the other tour operator never showed up. Daniel-san from Hire taxi Japan was super understanding and immediately offered to help us find a guide for us. He also helped me register through their website which was super simple and easy. As he was working to find someone at the last minute to take us to Fuji, he always kept me informed of his progress which helped reassure all of us. Within minutes, he had been able to find Taro-San, our driverguide. 30 minutes later Taro-san was picking us up in a super clean professional vehicle
We booked the 10 hour tour (through Lake Kawaguchiko). It went by in a flash. Every stop along the way brought its own little wonderful surprise. Taro-san was simply the best guide ever, generously sharing insights not only about the places we visited but also the culture and history of Japan. My kids , my wife and I loved learning about Japan through Taro-san. He also patiently answered the barrage of questions we were firing at him. Throughout the multiple stops, as a true gentlemen, he always made sure my wife and 2 daughters were always well taken care of. The tour went by in a flash. At the end, our heads were filled with amazing views , each one as breathtaking as the other, and also great details about what we had seen. Only an expert guide like Taro-san could have brought us to these magical spots .I also want to say that everything you read about Taro san is absolutely 100% true and I am not the only one praising his service I would vouch for him and the cie anytime.
I encourage everyone to use the hire Taxi Japan service. They are the REAL DEAL. Don't make the same mistake we did by trying to use another operatorWe were extremely fortunate that Hire Taxi Japan saved our day and will always be grateful to Taro-san and Daniel-san

What a fantastic way to discover Mount Fuji and the surrounding areas! We got to see it from different angles, including a boat ride.
Our guide, Komei, was exceptional. Knowledgeable, accommodating, and friendly, he adjusted the tour to perfectly suit our needs, including accessibility for wheelchairs.
Besides the breathtaking views, the highlights were the local market and restaurant. My young adult kids also enjoyed exploring the ice caves. This trip truly had something for everyone, making it a memorable and favorite family vacation.

Taro did a fantastic job of planning our day based on our wish list of capturing fantastic views of Mt Fuji. The day started with light rain with the forecast suggesting clearing skies by afternoon so Taro took us to places that weren't as weather dependant, saving the best views of Mt Fuji for when the skies had cleared. Taro continued to look at live webcam updates of Mt Fuji planning the trip around this. He surprised us with providing my teenage daughters with bread to feed swans at one of the lakes we stopped at which delighted my children. He explained local culture, customs and the history of Japan during our trip and we could ask many questions as well. The lunch stop Taro suggested was a fantastic restaurant with beautiful high quality food. Can highly recommend this trip with Taro. Also, the extra upgrade for the Alphard vehicle was well worth it, plenty of space with comfortable leather seats and charging points for phones. We could eat and drink in the vehicle which did suprise us, but was much appreciated. Taro was very genuine and thoughtful and can highly recommend this trip.

Takeshi was such a legendary driver. He took us to so many spots you wouldn’t be able to go without someone that knew what they were doing. Have already recommended to friends going soon.
