Ten listings, one mountain
A Mt Fuji tour from Tokyo on this site means one of ten listings, each ten to eleven hours long (one is listed as ten hours to a full day). Group buses start at $49 for Lake Kawaguchi, Lake Yamanaka and Oishi Park; $55 adds Hakone, its ropeway and Lake Ashi; $152 adds a lake cruise, lunch and the bullet train back. Private days with a driver or guide run $314 to $663 for families and groups, and three listings write hotel pickup into the description. None of the ten goes to the summit.

Quick answer
The short answer. For the lowest fare, the $49 bus covers Lake Kawaguchi, Lake Yamanaka and Asama Park, rated 4.8 from 6,248 reviews. For Hakone as well, the $55 day is the most reviewed Mt Fuji tour from Tokyo here, at 8,275. For a car of your own, private days start at $314.
What the day covers
Lakes, parks, a pagoda and springs. Pick a Mt Fuji tour from Tokyo by its stops.
The ten listings visit the lakes and viewpoints around the mountain, not the mountain itself. Their descriptions name the same handful of places in different combinations, and that is the quickest way to tell them apart.
The lakes. Lake Kawaguchi is named in 4 listings, Lake Yamanaka in 3 and Lake Ashi in 2, both of them group days with Hakone.
Parks and the pagoda. Oishi Park, Asama Park, Chureito Pagoda and Arakurayama Sengen Park are the parks and viewpoints named. Chureito Pagoda is in the $68 small-group day and the $499 private van day.
Oshino Hakkai. In the titles or descriptions of the $49, $68 and $499 days.
Hakone. Hakone Shrine, Owakudani Valley and the panoramic cable car on the $55 day; a Lake Ashi cruise on the $152 day, whose title also names the 5th Station.
Every Mount Fuji day trip from Tokyo here is a viewing day: none goes to the summit, so pick by which lakes and stops you want.

All day trips compared→The honest answer
As a fare, yes. A Mt Fuji tour from Tokyo on the $55 day with Hakone is $5.50 an hour over ten hours, and a day trip to Fuji from Tokyo on the $49 bus is the lowest fare of the ten.
The reviews back the buses. Sort the best Tokyo tours on this site by reviews and three of the top six are Fuji days: 8,275, 6,248 and 5,358. The private days have 31 to 806 reviews each.
What the price does not cover varies. Lunch is written into only the $152 description. Hotel pickup is written into three. Anything else, check on the listing.
A Mt Fuji tour from Tokyo suits you if you want the lakes and viewpoints in one long day. It does not suit you if you want to stand on the mountain: no listing here goes to the summit.
