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.

Hello!My name is Chinami.
I have a national licence as a tour guide. I know well not only the nature of Mt Fuji area, but also history of Mt Fuji as a world cultural heritage site.I like to talk with people from all aver the world.So I want to have great time with you and enjoy local meals, wine, and so on.
Let's share a wonderful moment in Japan!
“Amazing day!”
Chinami was very helpful and went above and beyond as a guide! She was considerate if there will be crowds or lines like at the ropeway, and the day went smoothly. She even was considerate about my weird and selfish wish going to Lawson. Chinami even helped us plan out how to get to our next destination! Honestly, I appreciate her so much! Thank you for today!

“Fun Day at Lake Kawaguchiko”
Chinami was a wonderful host from start to finish. She is very knowledgeable about the area and its history. She guided us through the best parts of nature during the time we went, and she customized our itinerary for our preferences. I would highly recommend her.

(66 reviews)Thank you very much for the review. I feel sorry that you could not have a private bath in Mt Fuji and train seats because of a national holiday. There are more things to do and see in Mt Fuji. Do please come again to hike and explore in the forest more. And I recommend to stay Japanese style in nearby lakes as well! Take care and say hello to your dogs!

“Memorable experience of wine-tasting and fruit picking!”
Ms Chinami was an excellent guide - she spoke English well and took time to share her extensive knowledge of the Yamanashi area and fruits during the tour. She also was very caring towards our group, and made sure we had a good time. It was my first time to Yamanashi, and it was a good and memorable one all thanks to Ms Chinami.
