Shimizu Private Tours

“Takagawa Shrine and Museum, Strawberries, and Fish Market”

We had a beautiful day with Sayori. She is fluent in English and a delight to spend time with and eager to share her culture. She is also super flexible on making sure you see the best of the region. While the majestic Mt. Fuji is awe-inspiring, even if you only get a glimpse through the clouds, a not to miss is the Tokugawa Shrine and museum, honoring the first Shogun of Japan. For a moment in time, you step into a world unimaginable. It is a peaceful walk with many steps through history. We enjoyed our descent 1,000 steps on an ancient path to the strawberry farms below, where we were able to pick and savor some of the most delicious strawberries in the world. From there, we made our way to the newly renovated Shimizu fish market and had the most delicious lunch of tempura shrimp and vegetables, and the best and freshest sushi tuna. Sayori was so attentive to our wishes and made perfect arrangements for us. We highly recommend her.

Thank you for coming to Shimizu, Cyndy san I appreciate your sweet comment about my tour. It was very nice to meet you both and show you around. I hope I didn't make you two too tired going down the stairs. I cherish the lovely talk we had at the Toshogu shrine. Thank you again for coming to Japan. Sayori

It really was a beautiful day! In Japan, there is a saying, "if there are ten people, they are in ten different colors," meaning all people have different tastes and characteristics. I hope I was able to entertain your group to suite your tastes. It wasvery nice meeting you!

“Amazing day in Shimizu”

Sayori is a wonderful guide who took good care of us and everything regarding the tour, so that all milestones were almost seemingless connected together. Already before the tour the contact with Sayori has been utmost friendly and professional. On the day of the tour we were already lucky with the weather and Sayori awaited us at the cruise terminal even before the time. After a short walk and drive with the bus we arrived at the Miho shrine from where we calmly walked the Kami-no-Michi to arrive at the pine groves. Sayori already organized a taxi there, so that we did not have any waiting time after taking some nice fotos. As my mother had issues with the throat she even helped us to make a stop in between and buy some medicine. As we arrived at Nihondaira the row for the ropeway was quite long, so that we first spend some time at the outlook and had some green tea at the nice plantage around the corner. After that we had a nice ropeway trip to and stay at the impressive Kunozan Toshugo shrine. Finally we returned to the observatory where a taxi already awaited us to bring us back to the port. We can not recommend and thank Sayori enough for this tour, and we would again arrange a trip with her anytime! Thank you dear Sayori, for a wonderful day!
