Since 2007 I have been an English-speaking tour guide, visiting most of the major sightseeing spots in Japan with international travelers. At the same time I have been working as an translator, mainly dealing with technical documents. Shizuoka prefecture has a number of spots for sightseeing, but they have not been fully covered in English-language travel books or on the Internet. So, as a local tour guide, through the TripleLights services, I am hoping to introduce some of the attractiveness of this region to the international visitors.

Day Trips from Shimizu

Shimizu Tour Reviews

Fantastic visit around Mt Fuji

We hired Motoyuki for a full day trip from the cruise port to the areas around Mt Fuji and had a fantastic time. We talked with many other people from our ship who took other excursions around the area, and none of them had an experience anything like ours. We took public transportation, and then a hired car Motoyuki had arranged. Not only did we get amazing views of Mt Fuji, but visited waterfalls, a sake brewery, a fantastic lunch, and a tea house! Amazing. Motoyuki is very, very familiar with the area and knew exactly what to show us. It was a fantastic day, and I would not hesitate to give Motoyuki our highest recommendation to anyone considering him.

Motoyuki H.

Thanks for the awesome review of my work! I always intend to offer the place's indigenous attractions, not for tourists. I am so happy that you understood the concept and enjoyed it! Great appreciation for you.

Half day tour with local guide.

We loved the variety of experiences the day with Yasuko offered. We particularly enjoyed the green tea plantation. Amico, our host was so inviting and could not have been friendlier and more helpful. Our guide was very organised and made our day simple but interesting and gave us a good local Japanese experience.

Yasuko Y.

Thank you so much for the excellent review you wrote. I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed visiting the green tea plantation. Yes, Emiko was so kind and helpful. It was an unplanned visit because of the Mt.Fuji World Heritage Center's irregular inspection closing day. We could see a magnificent Mt.Fuji.
