Back at the beginning of the Mt Fuji climbing season (Jul 1 – Sep 1), we asked our customers to post their own pictures of the impressive mountain.We got a great response and some great photos from our UK, US and Australian travellers – thanks very much! We have also posted these on the InsideJapan Tours Facebook so take a look there and vote for your favourites.

“My sister and I completed Japan Unmasked in November 2013 (Tyler was the tour guide). The day before the tour started, we made a day trip to Hakone, we were very lucky with the weather”
