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!!

“Ein sehr toller Tag im Zeichen des Fuji”
Yasuko hat uns sehr pünktlich abgeholt und wir sind mit den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln Richtung Fuji gefahren. Wir hatten das große Glück, den Fuji ohne Wolken und bei strahlendem Sonnenschein bewundern zu dürfen. Mittags hatten wir wie gewünscht einen authentischen Lunch. Yasuko war sehr herzlich.

“An amazing Mt. Fuji experience with Yasuko”
My husband and I had a wonderful tour with Yasuko. She carefully curated an unforgettable stop in Shimizu while our ship was docked for the day. We got to have a tour of an historic sake brewery, eat fried noodles in a cool area, topped off with gelato (I got the Mt. Fuji cone), a ride on the bullet train and a visit to the Mt. Fuji visitor center. Yasuko, in addition to being an excellent tour guide, is an English teacher and we were able to understand what she was saying. It was a delightful visit all around. You won’t regret spending time with Yasuko in her city!

Thank you for an excellent review. Marcy san. I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed my tour. Visiting Takasago Sake Brewery would be a good experience for you. Unfortunately, we couldn't see a clear view of Mt.Fuji in Fujinomiya. But you could see it at the port in the morning. I appreciate your cooperation in making the tour smoothly.
