“Grateful for a lovely day spent ”
Nobu san was patient and drives well. He was flexible with his itinerary and told us which was worth going to see or not. He was kind and friendly to my 5 year old boy and we enjoyed his company. Thank you for the trip!

(96 reviews)Thank you very much for your review. I am glad to know that you enjoyed my tour. Depending on the season and time, some places can get very crowded, so I think tours should be flexible. From this point of view, private tours are recommended over group bus tours, although they are a little more expensive. Thank you again for booking my tour.

“Great Tour!”
I booked this for my parents who were visiting Tokyo. Nobu was responsive and told me everything I needed to know so I could relay the information to my parents. My parents said he was very knowledgeable about the sites they were at and enjoyed the experience. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone that is interested in experiencing Mt Fuji!

(96 reviews)Thank you very much for your review. I am glad to know that your parents enjoyed my tour. There are several good places in this area, but not so easy to go around in the limited time. Now we, guides, can drive a car during the tour,so we can visit those spots much easier than before. Thank you again for booking me for your parents. Nobu
