Fuji family trip - As a large group of family we understand it might be complicated to travel around beautiful places without prior experience. however, Kiyo was amazing from the first minute we spent together, she was responsible for creating an unforgettable experience, from reading my name on the bus and on her sign to taking us to the most beautiful views of Fuji. Kiyo also helped us with basic Japanese communication words, and I believe that was the most memorable thing ever. Please note that this experience only made us want to come back to this beautiful country ASAP! Thank you, lots of love from Mexico

Great Experience - We were a group of 10 friends who arrange a private tour from our Cruise ship out to Fujisan Hongu Sengen Taisha Shrine, Shiraito Falls, & Lake Tanuki. The companies communication was excellent and at no time did we feel like we were just another bunch of tourists. Our guide "Miyuki" was wonderful. Miyuki spoke very good English and was passionate about her country. We learnt may thing about Japan that day. Our Van was a luxury van that was very comfortable, with plenty of leg room.
Lake Tanuki would have given us the perfect view of Mt Fuji, however we struck an overcast day, and Mt Fuji was hiding.

Shimuzu Port - Mt Fuji tour - We booked a full day tour to see Mt Fuji from three different sites, including Lake Tanuki, Shiraito Falls and Fujisan Hongu Sengen Shrine. Our guide was Hero and he was just amazing! Very detailed, very polite and knew all of the right spots to take the best photos. He provided us with a wealth of information about Fuji and all of the sites and we just could fault his energy and support to make it a great day out. We would give him 10 out of 10 as a rating and would like to thank him again for being brilliant. P.S he even cleared the clouds away so that we could get some amazing photos 😉

Best tour in Shimizu - Hirokane is so organized and well communicated on the tour itinerary. He introduced himself and tour guide by sending the pictures to ensure we can find them easily. Very appreciated to add the taste of Yakisoba as lunch which was not included in the tour. Their hospitality make us unforgettable experience for the first visit in the area.

Great tour in Shimizu - The service was great since booking. Hirokane is so organized to provide all the information for us. He is a great communicator and responses to all the questions quickly. Michiko is such a thoughtful tour guide and takes good care of us including the lunch which was not included in the original itinerary. Thanks for both of them so everyone enjoyed the tour so much.
