This tour takes you more closer to Mt.Fuji, visiting Fujinomiya, which is 30km east of Shimizu port. This city is located on the southern foot of Mt.Fuji, being away only 20km from the top. There are so many spots worth seeing gifted from Mt.Fuji. Also, the gorgeous view of the mountain is always at the side of you. For going to and from there, we can take the local railways, which must be a fun experience, too.

A great day with Moto-unforgettable

Moto picked us up at the cruise terminal .We went to the mountains in a special Tea plantation.The teamaster made a special Matcha tee ceremony for us.It was a very quiet place ,only for us .No other tourists were there. Unforgetable! After this we went to a special japanese restaurant in Downton Shimizu-delicous japanes food ,very kindly people. Later we go to the top of the mountain to have a great view to the fuji. aA the end we visted a beautiful beach with a view to the view. Moto was always very friendly .We met us as strangers and left as friends

Thanks for the review and rating! The day was my first work in 2026. The tour was completed successfully thanks to the kind client and the beautiful Mt.Fuji. It brings good luck for me in this year, and you as well, I believe!

Yamanashi Day Trip

We had an amazing Yamanashi day trip with Mr. Motoyuki, visiting Arakurayama Sengen Shrine, Lake Kawaguchi, and the ice cave. He was extremely informative and knowledgeable, sharing not only details about each destination but also the cultural background and historical context that made the experience much more meaningful. His explanations were clear, engaging, and showed his deep understanding of the region. I highly recommend Mr. Motoyuki to anyone looking for a guided tour around Yamanashi. As he is originally from Shizuoka Prefecture and studied in Kanazawa, he is also well qualified to conduct tours in those regions.

Thank you for your review and for recommending me to potential customers. I felt very happy to go out with a bang for the last work in 2025. I deeply hope all the fortune will bless your family. See you again!

Yamanashi Day trip

Right after exiting Kofu station Moto san, has been very thoughtful and informative on history and culture on Yamanashi. During the trip I have had an amazing experience that I will never forget from the views of Fuji, the lakes, and sake brewery. I would highly recommend him as a guide if you want to discover Yamanashi. I will definitely book with him again on my next trip to Japan.

Thanks for your review. I was so happy to show you Yamanashi, where I live! I hope more tourists will become interested in and explore Japan's local cities, like you. I will support them, and it is my pleasure, see you again!
