Yusuke

Yusuke is amazing . Very knowledgeable (he has climbed Fuji more than 500 times!). He is also very considerate and knows how to make the climb as comfortable as possible. It's a great experience, especially off-season. You do have to take it seriously by getting the right boots etc and by appreciating that weather can interfere (we had to move ours one day later because of weather). I give my highest possible recommendation to Yusuke.

Yusuke was an awesome guide. He has hiked Mt Fuji more than 500x. Since he knows the mountain so well and because he is really good at understanding the capabilities of the client, he set the perfect pace and we had an awesome experience.

We climbed Mount Fuji at the end of May (off season). Despite a majority of our party having no previous ice climbing experience, we were able to make it up to the summit and back, and had a fantastic experience. With years of experience guiding, Yusuke knew exactly what pace to set, and was a very stoic encouragement the whole way up. Highly recommend, especially for smaller parties.
