Excellent comprehensive tour of Shimizu

Moto was a wonderful tour guide. He gave us choices of things to do and see. After being picked up from our cruise ship in a clean, air conditioned van, we took the Nihondaira ropeway tram to look out over Suruga Bay. The six of us experienced a traditional tea ceremony at a small green shop with a tea field where we also got to pick some new tea leaves. Lunch was at a lovely hotel restaurant. The hotel, to me, appeared to be beautifully maintained from many years ago. It was not a tourist restaurant, but one that locals went to for a special lunchtime experience. There was a young couple in traditional wedding apparel having their wedding pictures taken in the beautiful Japanese gardens. We climbed high to view a shrine and Mt Fuji. It was a beautiful clear day and our views of the mountain were perfect. There were vendors selling sweet strawberries and delicious Fuji apples larger than softballs that were sliced and cored for us. At one of the Five Lakes, our group was given a motor boat ride around the perimeter of the lake, where once again we viewed Mt Fuji in a very different way. Visited Miho sea coast with black sand beach and the green pine grove where the pine trees are twisted into unusual, but beautiful configurations. Moto always provided us with lots of history and answered our questions. Restrooms everywhere were clean and very modern. At the end of our very full tour, Moto returned us to our cruise ship. Shimizu was the Japan I had always imagined and wanted to visit.

A great opportunity to get to know Tokyo

Yuki was a very pleasant and knowledgeable guide through Tokyo. She gave us in-depth knowledge of Japanese history and culture and explained the sights at Meiji Shrine, in Asakusa, the work of Hokusai, and much more in a very understandable way. She responded spontaneously to our current wishes regarding what else we could visit.

Dear Roland and Elisabeth Thank you for choosing me as your guide. I’m truly happy to have shown you Tokyo, especially to those who seek "authentic Japanese culture" like Hokusai and more. Wishing you a wonderful continuation of your journey in Japan! Best regards, Yuki

Initial D tour

Yukiko was an excellent guide. She planned our trip to Shibukawa for our grandson and it was a perfect tour for him. Yukiko was in constant communication with us in the planning and we could not have had a better guide for the day.
