I am Fumie Ueda, a National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter in Atami, Shizuoka, only 50 minutes away from Tokyo by Shinkansen trains. Atami is conveniently located at the foot of the Hakone mountains, and the base of the Izu Peninsula. It is also close to Mt. Fuji and the Shimizu Port in Shizuoka. I am excited to show you around beautiful places that I love. I grew up in Yokohama, spent 1 year as a high school exchange student in Allentown, PA in the US, went to college and lived/worked in Tokyo for about 10 years before coming to this beautiful onsen resort. After becoming a guide, I met with guests from various backgrounds, and I feel grateful once again, for my experience to be exposed to different cultures in my youth. Let’s have a good time together!

Welcome to Shizuoka in the central area of Japan. I was born in Hakone, Kanagawa Pref. and grew up in Izu Peninsula, also studied English at Kanagawa University in Yokohama. After graduation, I have traveled to a lot of countries such as Europe, U, S., Asia and lived in Australia for a year. I had a great time to visit there to have a wonderful experience. So I decided to become a licensed tour guide for introducing Japan to foreign tourists. Now I live in Izu which is close to Mt.Fuji and Hakone. I'm interested in Arts, Hot Springs, traditional places and of course delicious food. I would like to introduce beautiful Izu which has lots of Geopark sites and traditional Hot spring resort "Shuzenji, Nagaoka, and so on. Please Enjoy this area together!! Bienvenidos

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.

“Lovely Day Trip from Shimizu Port to Mt.Fuji area”
Yasuko was very communicative before the trip started. She met us at the port and guided us to the Mt.Fuji area using trains and taxis throughout the day. We had fun on the bullet train and loved the green tea plantation experience! We also learned a lot at Fujisanhongu Sengentaisha and were fortunate to see Mt.Fuji come out on the train ride back to Shimizu Port. Yasuko is so kind and such a wonderful tour guide. She planned a great day that we will never forget! Thank you so much for guiding us that day!

“My Fuji with Yasuko”
Yasuko was a great guide for a day trip to Mt Fuji 5th Station, noodle lunch, Mt Fuji World Heritage Center and Fujisan Hongu Sensen shrine. Yasuko speaks and writes fluent English, so was easy to communicate with via the Go with Guide email to set the itinerary several months ahead. She met my husband and me at the cruise port terminal. We used a combination of public transport and taxi (she reserved) for the tour, and I knew the costs for train and taxi prior. We had a great day, and I would highly recommend Yasuko!

“Yasuko showed us the best of Mt Fuji ”
Great day with Yasuko. We explored the area around Mt Fuji and learned a lot about the area. Yasuko was very flexible with our itinerary and ensured we had a lot of group pictures!

(51 reviews)Thank you so much for a good review. I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed it. Especially, Fujinomiya City, a local area close to Mt.Fuji. Unfortunately, we couldn't see the top of the mountain, so you will be back here in winter. Thank you.
