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!!

“Mt. Fuji Tour”
Yasuko was an amazing tour guide, she was prompt, and her English was very good and we got to view Mt Fuji. She went above and beyond and help us out tremendously in a difficult situation. We will be forever grateful to Yasuko!!

Dear Ms. Katarina & Mr. Norm, Thank you for your wonderful review. I'm delighted to hear you enjoyed my tour. It was truly fortunate that Mount Fuji was so clearly visible. This experience provided me with valuable lessons in problem-solving. Please enjoy the rest of your cruise.

“Mt. Fuji Was Hiding ”
Jasmine (Yasuko) was a great guide. She was very personable and she gave us a lot of information about the area. We enjoyed how she taught us the rituals at the shrine and took many pictures for us. Two of our highlights were eating noodles and drinking fresh Fuji water for lunch and visiting a tea plantation with a guided tour by the owner followed by tea sampling.
Yasuko Y.
Thank you for a good review, Craig san. I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed my tour, especially the Fried noodles and Green tea plantation. I really appreciate your cooperation in ensuring the tour goes smoothly. I hope you will see Mt.Fuji clearly.

“Shizuoka Highlights with Yasuko – A Day to Remember!”
Yasuko met us at Shimizu port with a warm welcome and guided us through an amazing tour. We started at the colourful Sengen Jinja Shrine, strolled around historic Sunpu Castle, then relaxed with a proper green tea service in Momijiyama Garden. Tracey tried the local specialty, Shizuoka Oden, in the park — let’s just say it was more memorable than something to add to our weekly menu! Yasuko made everything easy, fun, and full of great stories. Highly recommend her if you want to see the best of Shizuoka.

Thank you for a good review, Derek san and Tracy san. I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed my tour. Especially, green tea at Momijiyama garden and try to eat Oden. I appreciate your cooperation to make the tour go smoothly.
