“Wonderful Day with Nobu-san”
We started the day being picked up at an out-of-the-way location, which Nobu-san was able to do for us at no extra cost. He drove us all around the Hakone / Lake Kawaguchi area and told us many interesting stories, facts and historical information. I had done some research beforehand for places I wanted to go, and he graciously prioritized those places, whilst also showing us some other fun stuff we wouldn't have known about otherwise. Mt Fuji decided to be shy on our tour day, but that didn't take away from the experience! We had a marvelous time together at the Fall Festival next to Lake Kawaguchi as well, with many laughs. Nobu-san is a personable and friendly man, a great driver, and we so enjoyed our trip with him. I would recommend him to anyone. Thank you so much, and I hope we can do it again sometime! ありがとうございました.
Nobu S.
Thank you very much for your review. I'm glad to know that you enjoyed my tour. The Kawaguchiko area has many attractive places, so even if Mt. Fuji is shy and hidden behind clouds, we can still enjoy it. My tour is a private tour using a private vehicle, so I can customize it according to the guest's requests. It is a great pleasure for me to provide attractive tours to many guests. I look forward to seeing you again. Nobu

“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!
Nobu S.
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.
