Tour Important Information
If you can not arrive at Kawaguchiko station around 9, I will change the tour in order to fit your plan.
I might change the itinerary when we expect bad weather. In that case, I will tell you in advance.
I recommend you go to the world heritage center or Kubota Ichiku art museum instead.
Also, when the rope way is very busy and we have to wait for long time, I will suggest alternative place.
Important message from the supplier
I can guide you in Shizuoka(Shimizu) and Nagano if you pay for my transportation fee (and accommodation depending on time a tour starts and where).
If you would like me to pick up in Tokyo, I have to ask you pick up fee as well.
I am available to guide only in Yamanashi and Mt Fuji from May to July.
Also, I have only customized tour in April because it might be hard to complete all sight seeing spots due to peak tourist season.
I am afraid that I will not pick you up in Tokyo or Hakone.
However, I will give you advise how to get Mt Fuji or Yamanashi.

“Local wines and historical background”
Chinami provided an excellent tour of local wineries as well as background on the history of wine-making in Japan and the production process. She met us and dropped us off at the train station, and the logistics were excellent. We truely enjoyed spending the day with her. We recommend any of her tours, and the wine tour especially for wine-lovers who like to taste unusual or up and coming wines.

Thank you for the great review. I am happy that you enjoyed wines in Yamanashi. Have you drunk any bottle of wine you bought? Please tell me what your friends or family members who shared think. Now the association called Koshu of Japan goes to London to promote wines made in Japan. I hope you come to a festival in the area next time and nouveau or Koshu grapes itself. Good luck on your job and take care!

“Mt Fuji 6 hour Tour with Chinami (Cindy) ”
Chinami was great! She speaks English very well and we even had conversations about Japan and my home country South Africa. She's very knowledgable about Fuji-san and the surrounding area since she lived and grew up not far from there. Mt Fuji is beautiful and definitely worth checking out if you get a chance! Would definitely also like to join one of her wine/sake tours in future! As an added bonus she also assisted us to change our return bus ticket to an earlier one which saved us about an hour of waiting! I would definitely recommend Chinami (Cindy) for any English speaking travelers in Japan.
Chinami N.
Thank you very much such a wonderful review. It was the first tour on GO WITH GUIDE in 2026. You are very friendly and your parents are nice people. Yes, please join another tour next time! You could come from Tokyo as one day trip! Enjoy yourselves rest of days in Japan. Take care and good luck on your business PS I hope your girlfriend likes the T shirt you bought.

“Wonderful tour of Yamanashi and a few of its wineries.”
We highly recommend Chinami as a tour guide. We were extremely lucky to have booked our winery tour with her; she was fantastic. Chinami drove us around Yamanashi for a stunning view of Mt. Fuji before the wine tasting began. We visited five wineries in total: we selected Katsunuma Marquis Winery, and her choices for the other four were excellent. She also recommended a perfect winery for lunch—the food was amazing, and the view was breathtaking. Additionally, soon after we booked the tour, she sent us easy-to-follow instructions for booking our train tickets. At the end of the day, she drove us directly to the train station and took us right to the platform. We highly recommend Chinami for anyone looking for a wonderful experience.
Chinami N.
Thank you so much for the review. I am so glad that you enjoyed the tour. We saw Mt Fuji in the park where you know products grow in Yamanashi. Many people don't know wines in Japan have high evaluation now. Please come back to the area again on the grape festival day or the nouveau festival day to enjoy more wines! I appreciated the snacks and sweets from Hawaii! Wishing you happy holidays!

Would you like to hike the mountain that has a good view of Mt Fuji? After walking the trail on the mountain, you see lake Saiko in Aokigahara forests, the sea of trees form the above. And you know the reason why it is called the sea of trees. I recommend the tour for nature lovers and people like hiking.

Exciting Mt. Fuji - One Day Tour from Tokyo
In this tour, we will visit two of the most popular Mt. Fuji viewing spots. My favorite part of this tour is when I take you to Arakurayama Sengen Park where we can have the most beautiful view of Mt. Fuji with five-story pagoda. I think this is the best place for Mt. Fuji viewing, but it is located in a little bit complicated place. So, I can take you here in the most efficient way.

Transportation options are available upon your preferences. *Make an inquiry one month prior for train booking. Car Option is recommended as public transportation at the destination is not good.

Mt. Fuji viewing tour from Lake Kawaguchi
Lake Kawaguchi is the most popular place to view Mt. Fuji. I will take you to Arakurayama Park, which is the most popular place to take the picture of Mt. Fuji with the Pagoda. We will take a direct express train from Shinjuku in Tokyo to Lake Kawaguchi to avoid the traffic jam by a highway bus. The possibility of viewing Mt. Fuji is shown in the photo. If we can't see the mountain, I would recommend Oshino Hakkai and Aokigawara forest in the following general itinerary.
