Kawagoe is in the western part of Saitama prefecture next to Tokyo. It is a long-established commercial town from Edo Era. Unlike Tokyo, it survived air-raids of World War Two because it was in the suburbs of Metropolitan. Thanks for that, there are lots of traditional buildings and houses of different ages in a good condition. Now then, this place is getting more and more popular not only among foreigh tourist but also Japanese tourists.

“Best travel guide”
Kahoko is a great, knowledgeable and fun guide. We had her show us all around the Nikko shrine/temple and the mountain/lake areas. She scheduled an amazing lunch that was a crowd pleaser. She has an easy going energetic demeanor that can curate an experience to the person's particular desired experience. You cannot go wrong with booking a day with her!

Thank you very much for the kind review. Under the wonderful weather, I had a great time with a terrific couple. Thanks to you, I appreciate the most gorgeous coffee break in Nikko. I was wondering if the train tickets went well as it's kind of confusing. Still, your wonderful trip is going on, I just hope you will spend a memorable time in Japan !!

One day tour to Mt Fuji and Lake Kawaguchi
This is a trip to see the highest and most beautiful mountain in Japan, Mount Fuji and one of five lakes surrounding Mount Fuji, Lake Kawaguchi. Mount Fuji is an active stratovolcano that last erupted from 1707 to 1708. At 3776m meters, Mount Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan and its top and gentle slopes are surrounded by rich and unspoiled nature. The mountain attracts many climbers during summer, while in winter its snow-covered top and slope gleam pure white in the sun.
