Wonderful family tour!

Yoshi took our Aussie family (2 parents, 4 kids aged 5-11) on the most wonderful tour of Hakone. We couldn't have asked for a better tour guide! Yoshi was super friendly and extremely organised. He created the perfect blend of culture, beautiful scenery, delicious food and local education. He was very patient and kind with our small kids and set the perfect pace for a very big family of young kids. His English is very very good. We highly recommend Yoshi!

Great tour with Yoshi-San

Yoshi-San is a very friendly and knowledgeable Japanese, English-speaking gentleman. He used to work for a Japanese company, for which he traveled abroad a lot, and became a full-time guide 6 years ago. He took our family on a great two-day tour around Tokyo. He went to pick us up at the hotel and dropped us back at the hotel as well, which was very convenient. He brought custom-made printed pages to each visit to make sure we fully understood and retained the key historical / cultural details. He took us to nice places to visit and eat, suggested breaks when appropriate, proposed to take pictures, and was very understanding (our kids were exhausted from the plane trip so we had to cut part of the 8-hour program the first day). He is a fast-walker so make sure to bring appropriate shoes :-). Highly recommend!

Patrick B.

Hi Patrick, Thank you for yout kind message. Your boys are cute and polite. I hope they could enjoy gaming and other attractions in Akihabara yesterday. Tomorrow it will be rainy but I'll do my best to make my tour enjoyable. See you soon!

Mt.Fuji is not the tallest mountain in Japan, but it symbolizes Japan. It is 3,776m high and an independent peak representing Japan. From Shinjuku, you can take a special train to Mt Fuji. That is a 2-hour journey. Because of the majestic beauty of its ridgeline, it has been alive as a source of various cultures since ancient times. We recommend enjoying the view of Mt. Fuji from the five lakes surrounding Mt. Fuji, such as Kawaguchiko or Yamanakako. You can enjoy Mt.Fuji without climbing.
