Saitama Prefecture Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

Ai was an exceptional guide who worked so hard to make sure we had a really special day, even in bad weather. She was a safe and capable driver, and even accommodated dropping us off at a different hotel. Overall a beautiful day, well worth doing.

Absolutely thrilled with both Mirza our driver and Sonu our great guide: they were absolutely accommodating, prioritizing our comfort and our desires even if the weather was not ideal: we visited most of iconic sites, and they always were very welcoming and attentive. we all recommend their services 100% and will not hesitate to calling them again if we will visit this amazing country again! thank you Mirza and Sonu👍

I really enjoyed this tour and my guide Mirza did a great job of taking us to a lot of different places and answering our questions we had about the areas we visited.

David was an excellent tour guide. He planned the day very efficiently and made very good recommendations, including accommodations for our meals, he is an excellent photographer! Had a very good time!

Even in the middle of a typhoon, Fuji-San did not disappoint us today! In addition, our driver (Dan San) had a lot of suggestions on what we could do. Today was a great day although there is a typhoon happening.

We loved the variety of activités and information shared with our Bajwa. He made the day very relaxed and fun.

Though it was raining which was not in anyone’s control, our guide and driver rolled into one, David made sure our tour was fun and complete and pleasant and informational. First, he arrived on time, very prompt so thats a good start. Then, he blended wonderfully with the group. Answered our questions very well, he also turned into a very good photographer, he loves to make sure our photos are beautiful. He also is very helpful. Great having him and everyone in our group likes his personality. To add to that, he is a very safe driver too. All in all, service was awesome, tour was nicely arranged so we highly recommend David and this company.

Very good way to see Mount Fuji and the surrounding area. Speed boat experience on the lake was good fun (Not included)

It is a fantastic day and well worth the time and cost. David our guide was fantastic, so much knowledge and was very happy to both listen to our ideas and provide suggestions to us.

Worth every penny. Bajwa was amazing. Very knowledgeable and friendly was able to see and do a lot more than we expected

Amazing experience especially by David. I would highly recommend this experience for anyone looking to travel in Japan.

David was an amazing tour guide. Very knowledgeable and a great photographer. Thank you so much David

It was a rainy day but don’t let that stop you! Just prepare accordingly! We missed seeing Mt Fuji but all our other stops were just amazing! Bajwa was our guide and told us so much about the history, the gardens just everything! PS DO NOT skip the ice cream stop!

David is great guide great tour fuji and hakone …………..David nice person and nice driver and photographer

Our guide/driver was Areeb, was shown as much as possible but due to bad weather , we were unable to view mt Fuji. Very helpful guide

The weather will dictate what you can do, but our tour guide knew all the best places to go for any kind of weather. The sun ended up coming out and giving us some nice views, but we couldn’t go up on the mountain. We had an amazing time with Petteri and learned a ton about Mt Fuji and the area!
