“Great guide to Fuji”
Everything from the customized booking process to the trip itself was great with Yuka. I highly recommend booking with her. She's friendly and thoughtful, making the trip very enjoyable. And I had no trouble understanding her English. Would definitely book with her again.

“A wonderful trip to Mt. Fuji”
We had an amazing day with Yuka. Mt. Fuji made an appearance, and she took us to all of the great places for views and photos. Our trip included the Cheurito Pagoda (beware the steps to get there!), a lake with magnificent views and cherry blossoms everywhere. We had lunch at a great local place and eventually went to the kimono museum and an ice cave towards the end of the day. It's a long day, but worth it.
Yuka S.
Thank you for joining the Fuji tour and your warm comment. It was cloudy but we could see beautiful Mt. Fuji and so I'm very happy to show you places of the viewpoints. Have a nice trip in Kyoto.

Tokyo,Now &Then
Tokyo is a modern metropolitan city built on an ancient Edo, where Tokugawa samurai government was settled. Even now we can find old relics of ancient Edo among truly modern Tokyo streets. Asakusa, Ueno and the Imperial Palace itself are some of the examples. Let’s explore Tokyo with me and find the soul of Japan.
