Mt. Nokogiri Hiking – 2nd place of Deep Spot Ranking
Mt. Nokogiri in Chiba prefecture came off the 2nd place of Deep Spot Ranking in Japan by Nikkei Inc.
It's a little-known but a wonderful place where only a local guide like me can take you, and this is my unique tour. I would like to help you find natural and historical wonders and feel Japanese culture.
I strongly recommend this tour to travelers who like walking in trees, and are interested in a panoramic view and Buddha statues.

Tokyo Tour Reviews
“Great tour and amazing help!”
Hideaki did an amazing job not only showing us Hakone but also did an amazing job going above and beyond in helping us understand and buy our shinkansen tickets for the following day from Hakone to Kyoto. Getting to Hakone and then on to Kyoto via shinkansen was the part of our trip I was most worried about, but Hideaki made the trip to Hakone seamless and fun. We were lucky to be able to see Mt Fuji and the open-air museum was enchanting. Would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a tour guide in Tokyo for a day trip!

(53 reviews)Walter-san, Thank you very much for your review. We were so lucky that we could see the full view of Mt. Fuji, even though it was cloudy. Because clouds were higher than the mountain. It's very rare. Best Regards, Hideaki Murayama
