Moto E.

I live in Yamanashi Prefecture in Japan. I am a certified National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter in English. I acquired my certificate in February 2017. I can guide in the areas of Yamanashi, Nagano, and the Greater Tokyo Area and more depending on your interests. Yamanashi is located at the base of Mount Fuji, so it is easy to visit there. Great views of Mount Fuji and strolling in the nostalgic areas of an old town are available. And also, the snow monkey park is not very far. I will offer customized-private tours designed around your interests, and I will adapt the tours and make them flexible to fit your needs. Each tour will be enjoyable and memorable. However, the hardest part will be choosing which place and what you would like to explore. I am available for consultation should you need it. I was educated in Japan and the USA. I have a Ph.D. in Biology and I did my post-doc career in the US. I worked in the R&D and Quality Control departments in cosmetics companies and I was a laboratory manager for a vegetable seeds company in Japan. I was a research scientist in New Zealand for a short time. I planned the industry tours for foreign specialists and guided them to the corresponding enterprises. I grew Oriental vegetables for commercial purposes for a company in the UK. I was a rice cultivation assistant in Africa as a member of the Japanese Peace Corps. I visited Iran, Iraq, and Syria as a member of a goodwill mission organized by the government. After retirement, I have been a tour guide. I accompany guests on offshore trips from cruise ships. I can arrange walking tours in the Aogihara Forest area including lava caves like the Ice Cave and Wind Cave, and also strolling tours in the nostalgic town of Yamanashi. I have two websites guiding about Yamanashi and Mount Fuji areas.

Naoya U.

My Name is Naoya. I was born in Tokyo in 1952. After my graduation from Keio University, I joined a Japanese bank. Mainly I was assigned international business and stayed in London for three years.

Then for two years, I went to Tashkent in Uzbekistan as a JICA senior volunteer. I taught "corporate finance" at Tashkent Financial Institute in English. I got the guide license in 2017, After I came back to Tokyo, I am working as a volunteer guide, especially in Shinjuku. I hope to create special and deep tours in which tourists are interested but by now they were not able to gain access to. For example; Visit to various Universities, Visit to narrow streets in Tokyo, Visit to feel Edo (Now and Then) My hobby is playing the guitar. I hope we are in peace through music. I am also interested in Art, History and cooking. My major subject is economics and finance.

Ryohei K.

Hi This is Ryohei! I am a guide offering private tour at Mt. Fuji area. I have been working as a guide for several years in this area! Love to share the experience of the great nature and culture here! I am welcome to do some activity tours as well such as Kayaking, Hiking, Biking, Fishing, or anything by your request! I am based in north side of Mt. Fuji area(Lake Kawaguchi), but I am happy to conduct tours in south side of Mt Fuji(Fujinomiya or Mishima). Please contact me so that I can create a 100% customized tour for you! Thank you.

Midori N.

Hello, welcome to my page! My name is Midori which means GREEN in Japanese. You can call me Midori or Green. I grew up and have lived all my life in Yamanashi Prefecture where Mt. Fuji is and it is only 2 hours bus riding from Tokyo. In my spare time, I hike and play badminton. I also like spending time with my two cats in my free time. I became a National Licensed Tour Guide in 2014, but I started working as a guide mainly in 2023. I worked for an English conversation school in Japan for 23 years and was teaching English and also helping Japanese students to become better English speakers. I realize that teaching and guiding are similar because the essential thing in both is that I could entertain people and I can respond to their requests. When I was in my 20s, I visited many countries. There I had locals or other tourists help me a lot, which made my time unforgettable. Therefore, as a guide, I would really like to assist your trip so that you can have a blast without inconvenience in Japan. In addition, in my tour, I would like to talk about not only how beautiful Mt.Fuji is but also how historical and attractive it is. If you are interested in my tour, please feel free to contact me. You can choose my fixed tour or if you wish, I can customize and make a perfect itinerary based on your requests. Let’s make an awesome trip together at the foot of Mt. Fuji! I am looking forward to seeing you soon.

Fumi M.

Born and bred in Tokyo I am still living in the suburbs of Tokyo. I spent several years in the U.S. and the UK and wanted to show international visitors around Japan in return for the hospitality I had received in foreign countries. After coming back from the UK, I obtained the qualification of the National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter. I can guide guests to every corner of Tokyo including areas off the beaten track. As a history fan I can tell you a historical episode behind the scenes. From a local perspective I can explain how we Japanese are getting along. Since I have science and technology backgrounds, I can give you a tour of scientific or technical things as well..

Also KOSHU wines and LOCAL foods are in my territory. Ill provide you happy time that would remain in your heart.

Visiting historic wineries and wine tasting

“Japan makes wine?!? You bet it does!!”

Even if you only have the mildest interest in wine, this tour is for you. Although Chinami gives an excellent and educational tour of the Yamanashi wine region, the beauty of the vineyards and the mountains is all the excuse you need to escape Tokyo for the day. Chinami was waiting for us at the train station when we arrived and straight away we were off to our first winery … one that I suggested which she was happy to fit into the itinerary for the day. Her knowledge of the area is exceptional and she was able to give us the highlights of the area in the short time we had. If your into trying something different the regional varieties of Japanese grapes are worth trying especially Koshu and Muscat Bailey A. We visited 5 wineries while there and had lunch at Maruki Winery which had a fantastic deck over looking the mountains. Burgers were great!!! All in all a great day and totally recommend if you want to do something different and escape the tourist crowds. Thank you Chinami for looking after us for the day!!

Chinami N.

Wow! Thank you so much for wonderful review!!I didn't t realize we went five wineries because you left Yamanashi earlier. And I am happy that you got one you wanted to buy in Budo no Oka! I have more wineries that I would like to take you to. Remember Grape festival is the first Saturday of Oct. And Yamanashi Nouveau is Nov 3. I think your children would like them. Also, if you have a couple hours, you could go to the Fruits Park that has a good view of Mt Fuji. Take care everyone and enjoy wines from Japan!

7-hour sightseeing tour from Fujiyoshida to Hakone Gora

“Excellent taxi service”

We reserved a private taxi for 7 hours and we were able to set our itinerary ahead of time. The driver came early and we were able to communicate with a google translate app. He remained flexible and allowed us a quick stop at a waterfall on our way to oshino hakkai. The car was large, clean and comfortable. The driver was professional and an excellent driver.

TR Taxi

Thank you very much for your kind review. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the service and had a great day with your driver. We will be sure to share your feedback with our local team in Yamanashi. Thank you again, and we hope to welcome you back to Japan in the future.
