Feel Great Nature of Mt.Fuji & Mystical Forest Aokigahara
The Fuji Five Lakes and the Aokigahara Forest are fascinating natural wonders created by Mt.Fuji. They remain untouched nature sceneries. They are on the north side of the mountain, in Nation Park of Japan, and are only 2 hours away from Tokyo. It is the ideal place to purify mind and body in the tranquility of nature.

Shore excursion from Shimizu port, the land of Mt.Fuji
Shizuoka is one of the most attractive sightseeing destination in Japan. Being in the southern part of the country, its moderate climate allows us to enjoy the warmth and sunshine even in the winter season. There are a lot of places to see in Shizuoka; scenic beauties and places of historical interest, with plenty of local cuisine dishes and flavors to taste. This tour guides a variety of local fascinations compactly, especially for cruise travelers who disembark at Shimizu port.

Shore excursion from Shimizu port, more closer to Mt.Fuji
This tour takes you more closer to Mt.Fuji, visiting Fujinomiya, which is 30km east of Shimizu port. This city is located on the southern foot of Mt.Fuji, being away only 20km from the top. There are so many spots worth seeing gifted from Mt.Fuji. Also, the gorgeous view of the mountain is always at the side of you. For going to and from there, we can take the local railways, which must be a fun experience, too.

Mt.Fuji 5th station, a short hike of Ochudo & Okuniwa
The Ochudo, also known as Middle Road, was a special trail for ascetic practitioners that circled Mt.Fuji at the level of the fifth station. The trail is adorned by beautiful flora such as Japanese larch, Rhododendron, and Lingonberry and offers a majestic view of Mt.Fuji. The trail continues to Okuniwa, as Inner Garden which used to be a lateral crater. As it is named, pine trees and volcanic rocks create artistic landscapes by all nature.

“Yamanashi Day trip”
Right after exiting Kofu station Moto san, has been very thoughtful and informative on history and culture on Yamanashi. During the trip I have had an amazing experience that I will never forget from the views of Fuji, the lakes, and sake brewery. I would highly recommend him as a guide if you want to discover Yamanashi. I will definitely book with him again on my next trip to Japan.

Thanks for your review. I was so happy to show you Yamanashi, where I live! I hope more tourists will become interested in and explore Japan's local cities, like you. I will support them, and it is my pleasure, see you again!

“Wonderful day with Moto”
Moto is super professional, very friendly and knowledgeable. He did everything he could to make our day a very special one. We had some authentic Japanese experiences off the beaten path and had a perfect balance of nature and culture.

Thanks for five stars rating and comment for my performance. This area is my birthplace, so I should be professional, haha. Hope you come again, see you!

“Perfect views of Mt Fuji”
We were lucky to have a very sunny and clear day for our Mt. Fuji tour. Moto is a great guide. Very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. He met us at the Shimizu port and took us to great viewing sites of Mt Fuji. He even took us to a local park with no tourists and the view was breathtaking. The falls were beautiful and he took us for lunch at a small local Japanese restaurant where the hostess was very gracious and the food good. It was an incredible and very enjoyable day with Moto as our guide. We highly recommend Moto and his Mt Fuji tour.
Motoyuki H.
Thanks for your review and scoring. The day was my last work for cruises this autumn. So much appreciated that it was a perfect day with beautiful Mt Fuji and wonderful guests! I will boost my performance for the next season. Happy days!

I usually play tennis with my friends every weekend and am tough enough to take you around everywhere you would like to visit in Tokyo area. I've studied at the university and worked for the company located in Tokyo total over 40 years, and so I know main popular sightseeing spots and fantastic spots though not so popular. Day and Night in Shinjuku, Meiji shrine and Takeshitadori in Harajuku, Crossroads in Shibuya, Imperial Palace in the center of Tokyo, High brand shopping street in Ginza, Several Museums and quiet Forest in Ueno and Oldfashioned Nakamise and Sensoji temple in Asakusa. Of course, I can take you to 5th station of Mt. Fuji, Ropeway and Pirate Ship in Hakone, Shrines and Temples in Kamkura or Gorgeous Toshogu Temple in Nikko. Since I 've already done bus tour guide several times for H.I.S. and JTB, I can take care over 10 people at the same time around Tokyo using public transportation. Please send message to me, so I can make original tour course just for you, for 4 hours, 8 hours or all day long.

Yoko T.
Hi, I'm Yoko, a National License Tour Guide＆International Kikisake-shi. I speak with an American accent, 'cause I lived in Seattle, Washington for six years in my childhood(3-9 years old). My tours might be better with people who LOVE TO WALK, have STAMINA and keen to learn about the culture. Now I live within a walking distance from Ueno Park, Tokyo, so I see a lot of International tourists walking around in my neighborhood every day. (PLEASE CHECK EACH TOUR. The expenses are spelled out, too.) "Tokyo is larger than we thought and the transportations are so complicated," Swedish guys told me. I'm here to help you. I know well about Tokyo, Yokohama, Yamanashi etc. and I travel most of the parts of Japan. I would appreciate if you could see more sightseeing spots with me as your guide and enjoy your stay. I love to answer your questions, even though I became nearly breathless when I was with American guests, a family of three, curiously asking me questions after questions:-) I appreciated their interest in Japan very much. I also go mountain trekking for nearly thirty years. I've been to the summit of Mt. Fuji and Mt. Kitadake three times. Talking about Mt. Takao, maybe more than fifty times. I hope we can enjoy the beautiful view together. I'm looking forward to seeing you soon and having a good time together. Hope to hearing from you soon.
