“Magical boat ride and Temple tours”
Nobu was a great guide. He was in contact with us on regular basis leading up to the trip with the outline of the day and meeting point as well as organising a car. He was informative and never rushed us. We thoroughly enjoyed the itinerary he had set out for us. Highly recommend!

Thank you very much for your review. I am so happy to know that you enjoyed my tour. This area is near my hometown and is full of attractive spots, but since it is not widely known, few people visit. I would be glad if more people learned about it and visit.

Thank you very much for your review. I am so happy to know that you enjoyed my tour. There are many attractive spots around Mount Fuji, but it is not easy to visit them using public transportations. My minivan tour allows you to visit these locations efficiently. Thank you again for taking my tour! Nobu
