Shimizu Tour Reviews
Derek E.
“Shizuoka Highlights with Yasuko – A Day to Remember!”
Yasuko met us at Shimizu port with a warm welcome and guided us through an amazing tour. We started at the colourful Sengen Jinja Shrine, strolled around historic Sunpu Castle, then relaxed with a proper green tea service in Momijiyama Garden. Tracey tried the local specialty, Shizuoka Oden, in the park — let’s just say it was more memorable than something to add to our weekly menu! Yasuko made everything easy, fun, and full of great stories. Highly recommend her if you want to see the best of Shizuoka.
Yasuko Y.
Thank you for a good review, Derek san and Tracy san. I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed my tour. Especially, green tea at Momijiyama garden and try to eat Oden. I appreciate your cooperation to make the tour go smoothly.

“Fun and Interactive Day in Shimizu”
We had a fantastic day in Shimizu with our guide, Sayori. She was fun, friendly, and very knowledgeable, making the whole experience both enjoyable and insightful. She took us to some of Shimizu’s highlights, including Kunozan Toshogu Shrine and the beautiful Miho-no-Matsubara, sharing stories and cultural context that brought each site to life. The highlight of the day was when Sayori specially organized kimono and yukata rentals for us—an unforgettable experience that allowed us to take wonderful photos with Mount Fuji in the background. Sayori went above and beyond to make our tour memorable, and we are so grateful for her thoughtfulness and enthusiasm. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Shimizu!

“Fantastic guide!”
We were on a cruise throughout Japan. Shimizu was one of our port stops. We were really happy we found Sayori. The 4 hour tour was perfect for our day in port. Sayori is an excellent guide. She was very personable and friendly. She was also very patient with my elderly mother. We went to Miho PIne Grove, the Ropeway, and also the fish market. We had enough time for sightseeing, shopping, and even a morning snack. What I appreciate also is that Sayori shared little bits of the culture throughout our tour. Sayori also helped us to select menu items from the restaurant at the Fish Market. She also informed us of free transportation back to the cruise ship after the fish market. If you are going to be in Shimizu, I highly recommend Sayori!

Dear Dixie san Thank you for taking your time to write such a warm review. I hope both of you enjoyed Shimizu and other places in Japan. Thank you again for letting me be your guide!! Warm Regards Sayori
