Shimizu Tour Reviews
Shannon S.
Shore excursion from Shimizu port, more closer to Mt.Fuji
“Great Tour with a Great Guide”
Moto was great. He knew where to take us to get the best views of Mt. Fuji, along with beautiful waterfalls, a great stop for lunch, a quiet temple, and a bonus stop at a green tea plantation. It was a fantastic tour. I would highly recommend.
“An Amazing Day!”
We had a wonderful day touring with Jasmine (Yasuko). From our first contact, she has been so helpful and responsive. She was early to our meeting time and had taxis pre-arranged at each stop during our day. She shared so much information and found special experiences for us within our planned itinerary ( photos with the people who were participating in a festival at the shrine, making our own origami, a delicious lunch place, and amazing photos of Mt Fuji at the tea plantation). We highly recommend her!
Yasuko Y.
(52 reviews)Thank you so much for an excellent review. I'm pleased to hear that you enjoyed my tour. We were very lucky to see the view of Mt.Fuji despite the cloudy day. Also, accidentally could meet the special Tea parade event in Kunozan Toshogu shrine and took some photos together. See you in the future with a typical view of Mt.Fuji.
