Kozo Y.

Hello! I'm Kozo. I'm currently living in Chiba, which is one of the biggest cities in Japan and located in the suburbs of Tokyo. So, I can guide you to the sightseeing spots in Tokyo and the suburbs, which include Asakusa, Nikko, Kamakura, Hakone, Mt. Fuji, and more. In those places, you can experience traditional Japanese culture and beautiful sceneries. I'm originally from Kobe, one of the major cities in the western part of Japan. So, if my schedule permits, I may also guide you to the attractive spots in Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, and Kobe. I took a Master's degree in chemical engineering at the University of Tokyo and an MBA degree at the University of Massachusetts. I am a professional engineer in industrial engineering, an industrial safety consultant, a registered management consultant, and a licensed guide-interpreter. I have been working for a Japanese chemical company for many years. So, if you are interested not only in Japanese culture but also in technologies and businesses in Japan, I may be a good company. :) As a part of my job as an engineer, I often travel outside Japan. The countries that I visited last year are Singapore, China, the United States, Mexico, Germany, Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia. Among them, Singapore is my frequent destination. Also, in the past, I visited Spain, Italy, England, France, Hungary, India, Canada, Korea, Taiwan, etc. So, if you are from one of those countries, you may ask me how I felt when I visited your motherland. :) Okay, thank you for reading my self-introduction to the end. I hope I have a chance with you!

Hello, my name is Seiji, a licensed guide interpreter. I am a native of Tokyo and registered guide with the “Tokyo City Guide Club”. I love outdoor activities and I am always inspired by the nature and culture of our country. Tokyo has been the center and the capital of Japan for more than 400 years. The city is built around the former residence of shogun, now the Imperial Palace, and has gone through damages and recoveries. It is a very modernized city and continues to add new attractions. I would like to take you to some popular tourist attractions and show you around our cultural tradition that has been ingrained in our lifestyle. I am looking forward in seeing you soon.

Hello, welcome to my page! My name is Midori which means GREEN in Japanese. You can call me Midori or Green. I grew up and have lived all my life in Yamanashi Prefecture where Mt. Fuji is and it is only 2 hours bus riding from Tokyo. In my spare time, I hike and play badminton. I also like spending time with my two cats in my free time. I became a National Licensed Tour Guide in 2014, but I started working as a guide mainly in 2023. I worked for an English conversation school in Japan for 23 years and was teaching English and also helping Japanese students to become better English speakers. I realize that teaching and guiding are similar because the essential thing in both is that I could entertain people and I can respond to their requests. When I was in my 20s, I visited many countries. There I had locals or other tourists help me a lot, which made my time unforgettable. Therefore, as a guide, I would really like to assist your trip so that you can have a blast without inconvenience in Japan. In addition, in my tour, I would like to talk about not only how beautiful Mt.Fuji is but also how historical and attractive it is. If you are interested in my tour, please feel free to contact me. You can choose my fixed tour or if you wish, I can customize and make a perfect itinerary based on your requests. Let’s make an awesome trip together at the foot of Mt. Fuji! I am looking forward to seeing you soon.

I used to teach English at a high school and now provide guide service to English speaking people as a freelancer during weekends and holidays. I’m confident in fluency in English and have guided more than 70 tours last year in Tokyo, Yokohama, Hakone, Kamakura, Mt. Fuji region, and my local city Shizuoka (Shimizu). I can guide other places such as Kyoto, Osaka, Nara, Kanazawa, Takayama, and other places if guests want to.

Mt Fuji hiking tour
Mount Fuji
8 hours 30 min
We are going to hike from 1st station to 5th station on Yoshida trails. Climbing season over 5th of Mt Fuji is from July 1 ~ Sep10. However, you can hike from the first station to fifth station on Yoshida trails in most seasons. You see many plants along trails and see a few lakes if the weather is good. I recommend these people who come to Mt Fuji out of climbing season or who would like to experience not too hard climbing.

“Excellent service”
This was our second round of trips with Van transportation starting in Nara and finishing several days later in Tokyo. The office was easy to work with. They understood all the requests and subsequent changes and responses were done in a very timely manner. Miya, our driver, was with us for all segments except one. Both drivers hooked up with us via WhatApp and we used Google translate as needed. We were able to pay with a credit car for the Van transportation costs. The driver also accepted a credit card for toll and lodging costs. Both drivers (Miya and Morimoto?) were very courteous and excellent drivers, which is the most important. Our car was swapped out for a slightly larger one to accommodate the 4 adults and two car seats. We had only one snafu where one of the car seats was not appropriate for a two-year old. Morimoto drove to a store and purchased one which worked great. Situation resolved. Overall we highly recommend Van transportation. Their pricing was competitive to other services we explored. We will definitely contact Van transportation for our next trip. Thanks.
