“Guided trip to Mt. Fuji area & shrine”
Yasuko, Provided a very thorough tour of the Mt Fuji Srine and museum/learning center. We met at the port and took several trains from Shimizu to the Fuji area. Also had lunch at a local noodle eatery. A very enjoyable day.

(47 reviews)Dear Michael, Thank you for a good review. I'm happy to hear you had fun on that day with me. I'm afraid your wife missed something close to the Mt.Fuji area's atmosphere. But you will be back here in the best season to see Mt.Fuji in the future. I appreciate you joining my tour.

“Trip to Mt Fuji from Shimizu Port”
Yasuko was ready to chat and advise us about our itinerary through GoWithGuide. On the day before our tour she contacted me through whatsapp so we could confirm the meeting time and as a result, was easy to find at the port. She had already purchased an IC card for us to use which made catching public transport a breeze. We just had to reimburse her on the day. Using public transport was a fantastic experience and the bullet train ride was awesome. Unfortunately Mt Fuji was enveloped in cloud but the other places she took us to were great and without volumes of tourists.

“Absolutely wonderful”
Our party of 4 was met by yasuko (or Jasmine as she asked us to call her). She was an incredible guide, knowledgeable, and very flexible as we made some changes to our plans. She was able to meet all our must sees including a short ride on the bullet chain. You cannot go wrong with having Jasmine as your guide in the Mt. Fuji area.
