One day tour to Mt Fuji and Lake Kawaguchi
This is a trip to see the highest and most beautiful mountain in Japan, Mount Fuji and one of five lakes surrounding Mount Fuji, Lake Kawaguchi. Mount Fuji is an active stratovolcano that last erupted from 1707 to 1708. At 3776m meters, Mount Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan and its top and gentle slopes are surrounded by rich and unspoiled nature. The mountain attracts many climbers during summer, while in winter its snow-covered top and slope gleam pure white in the sun.

The most popular part of Hakone is around Lake Ashi, where the view of Mt Fuji in good weather is just like a picture postcard.

“This truly was our first day on our trip to Japan”
My experience visiting Hakone and Mt. Fuji with Nao was fantastic. From the moment we booked the tour until the end, Nao was incredibly prompt in his communications, providing helpful information well in advance and frequently checking in on us. The tour was extensive, and he guided us patiently throughout the day. Unlike other guides, his fee included all transportation, lunch, and entrance tickets, which we found very reasonable. Nao is a friendly person, and we genuinely enjoyed his company. Having a private guide was a key reason for booking this tour. Haruo was very responsive both before and during our trip, confirming the sites we wanted to see prior to our arrival. On the morning of the tour, we mistakenly confused our start time and Nao-san kindly left his home early to accommodate us. He picked us up at the train station near our accommodation, which we greatly appreciated. Thank you, Nao-san!

“Excellent Service”
We were pleased by the service we got from Mr Nao. He is very knowledgeable and very attentive to our needs. I recommend him to anyone who is looking for a tour guide in Tokyo and its surroundings.

Dear Kris san Thank you very much for your comment on my tour. It is regret that Mt Fuji was covered with cloud all day long and missed the chance to enjoy beautiful and elegant Mt Fuji. If you have chance to come back to Japan, I really want to show you beautiful Mt Fuji clearly. Thanks Nao

Hello everyone! I was born and raised in Kawagoe, a charming historic city located just next to Tokyo in Saitama Prefecture. Two years ago, I graduated from university here in Japan, and I now work as both a tour guide and a study abroad support advisor. Three years ago, I had the life-changing opportunity to study abroad in Vancouver, Canada. The warmth and hospitality of the locals left a deep impression on me. I discovered the joy of immersing myself in a new culture and way of life, and I truly came to appreciate the beauty of connecting with people from diverse backgrounds. Now, I want to be the one offering that kind of experience to others. As your guide, my goal is to make your journey in Japan truly special. Through GoWithGuide, I strive to go beyond typical sightseeing—I want to create meaningful opportunities for you to engage with Japan’s rich culture and traditions on a deeper level. I’m committed to providing a safe, thoughtful, and unforgettable experience for every guest. Let’s not just visit Japan—let’s feel Japan. Join me on this unique journey, and together, let’s discover the heart and soul of this incredible country. I look forward to meeting you soon! Depending on your tour and needs, my teammates Kei and Ethan may also join to help ensure the best experience.

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..
