About Tour Guide Yasuko Y.

Welcome to Shizuoka in the central area of Japan.

I was born in Hakone, Kanagawa Pref. and grew up in Izu Peninsula, also studied English at Kanagawa University in Yokohama.

After graduation, I have traveled to a lot of countries such as Europe, U, S., Asia and lived in Australia for a year. I had a great time to visit there to have a wonderful experience.

So I decided to become a licensed tour guide for introducing Japan to foreign tourists.

Now I live in Izu which is close to Mt.Fuji and Hakone.

I'm interested in Arts, Hot Springs, traditional places and of course delicious food.

I would like to introduce beautiful Izu which has lots of Geopark sites and traditional Hot spring resort "Shuzenji, Nagaoka, and so on.

Please Enjoy this area together!!

Bienvenidos

Yasuko was truly the best guide we could’ve had for our first time in Shimizu! She was always kind and very knowledgeable when it came to local and authentic experiences. It was a pleasure having her as our guide and would recommend her to anyone!

Yasuko Y.

Thank you so much for a good review, Jada san and your family. I'm so happy to hear that you all enjoyed my tour, though we couldn't see a view of Mt.Fuji at all. I really appreciate your cooperation of going the tour smoothly.
