Mount Fuji Private Tours & Local Tour Guides

“Mt. Fuji Custom Private Tour with Luxury Van”

Despite the wet weather and not being able to see Mt. Fuji, we had a great experience! We went to Chureito Pagoda, Kitaguchi Hongu Fuji Sengen, Kawaguchiko Lake for lunch, Torii in the Sky and the Wind and Ice Caves. We had plenty of time to explore each area without feeling rushed. Miyuki was our driver - she was amazing at navigating the roads up the mountain and very kind and polite. The food at the restaurant that was recommended by Fuji Limousine was also really good. Too bad the weather didn't cooperate - but something we knew could happen because we came here during the rainy season. Just means that we'll have to come back another time! Jenny

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review! We're especially glad to hear that Miyuki took good care of you — she will be delighted to know her driving and hospitality made a positive impact. Safe travels and we hope to see you again soon!

“Chinami is the BEST!!”

We had 2 half day tours with Chinami. She is so knowledgeable, loves this area, knows about all the culture and picks the best restaurants!! We did a sake brewery tour that is a must do! So fun, the sake guide was great and the sake was absolutely delicious! The Itchiku Kubota Art Museum was beautiful and explained the history of Itchiku Kubota and his art of creating kimono designs. We are a family of 4 from Texas and Chinami was so easy to allow us to change plans and decide our exact design of how we wanted our days to look. I can't express enough what a wonderful woman and human being Chinami is!

Thank you very much for the great review. You were also nice from the begging when we met. I had great time with you and was happy that your children went to Fuji Q after the tour. I love to visit you sometime and drink more with you!!!As I said, I have more tours to enjoy local alcohols. Please visit the area again in different season! Until then, take care and best wishes.

“Great visit to Shimizu/Fujinomiya with Sayori”

Four of us visited Shimizu while sailing around Japan on Celebrity Millenium and arranged a tour with Sayori to get a closer look at Mt Fuji and learn more about the sacred mountain. Just a day or two prior to the tour, we realized that we would need to modify our plans since it was the last day of the cruise and we would need to be back to the ship for packing earlier than planned. She had no problem with this, rolled with the punches and adjusted our itinerary. Our day with Sayo was like spending the day with a friend in their home town. Based on her very detailed information, we met up with Sayori at the Shimizu train station. She expertly guided us to an express train that would get us to Fujinomiya more quickly than planned. In Fujinomaya, we visited the Mt Fuji World Heritage Center and the Fujisan Hongu Sengen Taisha Shrine. As she has summited Mt Fuji herself, Sayo was able to provide us with great insight as we toured the Heritage Center. While it was cloudy to start, the skies began to magically open providing us with great views (we think she made it happen) and she was very patient as we were able to watch the mountain appear before for us. At the Shrine, Sayori explained the significance of several ceremonies we happened upon and took the time to read the very detailed fortunes we each chose for ourselves. One member of our group is gluten free and Sayo went out of her way to find a very charming, mother/daughter restaurant that specialized in delicious rice balls with all sorts of great fillings. The mom and daughter were so happy to have us that they offered us additional complimentary side dishes. As relatively experienced travelers this was just the type of opportunity we seek, to experience something that feels very authentic, away from any crowd. For Americans or other english speaking guests looking for a guide, Sayori has spent signficant time in the US, speaks flawless english and will provide a great day with many memories.
