Mt. Fuji in Fujinomiya and Shiraito watefalls
Mt. Fuji can be seen from Tokyo, but if you feel the real size and its atmosphere as well as the value, you should definitely visit this area. I am mainly guiding for the cruise ship passengers for shore excursion, but it is possible to pick you up at a JR station (Shizuoka and Shin-Fuji).

Fine view of Mt. Fuji from Shimizu port
Mt. Fuji is one of the national icons of Japan that most of foreign travelers adore. This tour is mainly focused on passengers of cruise ship docking in Shimizu port, but if you want to visit Shizuoka, it is worth visiting. I will guide you using my private car (TOYOTA Corolla Cross). All the cost is included in the tour price. If you want to see Mt. Fuji, never miss to visit Shimizu or Shizuoka.

Shimizu Tour Reviews
Felix G.
“Great tour with Yashiro (Motchee)”
We had an outstanding 6.5‑hour tour with Motchee in Shimizu, and it became one of the highlights of our trip. He picked us up right on time at the port and drove us safely and comfortably to all major sights in the region. Throughout the day, Motchee impressed us with his deep knowledge of the area, his very clear English, and his remarkable patience. We visited all the key spots — Miho‑no‑Matsubara, Nihondaira, the Kunōzan Tōshōgū Shrine, and the local fish market — and at every stop he shared fascinating background information and cultural insights. He also knew exactly where to find the best photo spots, which made the experience even more memorable. The communication before, during, and after the tour was excellent, and we always felt well taken care of. For small groups who want a personal, informative, and smoothly organized experience in Shimizu, Motchee is the perfect guide. A clear 5‑Star recommendation.

“Perfect day in Shimizu ”
Our day with Take was excellent. We started at the pine grove, went to an observation terrace, saw a shrine, a tea plantation and of course Mount Fuji was the star of the show! Our perfect day was topped off with a visit to a tea house where we were able to participate in a traditional tea ceremony. It was a memorable experience for us. We would highly recommend Take for your day in Shimizu.
