About Tour Guide Chinami N.
Hello!My name is Chinami.
I have a national licence as a tour guide. I know well not only the nature of Mt Fuji area, but also history of Mt Fuji as a world cultural heritage site.I like to talk with people from all aver the world.So I want to have great time with you and enjoy local meals, wine, and so on.
Let's share a wonderful moment in Japan!
Important
I can guide you in Shizuoka(Shimizu) and Nagano if you pay for my transportation fee (and accommodation depending on time a tour starts and where).
If you would like me to pick up in Tokyo, I have to ask you pick up fee as well.
I am available to guide only in Yamanashi and Mt Fuji from May to July.
Also, I have only customized tour in April because it might be hard to complete all sight seeing spots due to peak tourist season.

Kawaguchiko is the most popular lake among five lakes at the foot of Mt Fuji.There are many places to go in all seasons.You see Mt Fuji from different directions.Not only enjoying sceanery, but also you have great tour at the sake brewery.
Walking in Aokigahara,the sea of trees, and exploring caves
You can enjoy the nature of beautiful forest at the foot of Mt Fuji.We also go into some of interesting caves in the forest. If you are used to hiking, I will take you to the small mountain where you can see the whole Mt Fuji.
Mt Fuji,as a sacred place for worship
You can learn about history of Mt Fuji worship and visit some historical sites where Mt Fuji pilgrims used to go before they climbed Mt Fuji during Edo period about 200~400 years ago.
Visiting historic wineries and wine tasting
Wine in Japan? I know some people have never heard of Japanese wine and are proud of wine in their own countries.However, There is a famous place for wine in Japan next to Tokyo called Katsunuma in Yamanashi prefecture.Japanese wine makers have made effort to produce high quality wines for many years.Japanese wine have good reputation these days because it goes well with Japanese cuisine. Tasting is believing.Why don't you try tasting Japanese wine?
Hiking for the view of Mt Fuji and Aokigahara forest
Would you like to hike the mountain that has a good view of Mt Fuji? After walking the trail on the mountain, you see lake Saiko in Aokigahara forests, the sea of trees form the above. And you know the reason why it is called the sea of trees. I recommend the tour for nature lovers and people like hiking.
Mt Fuji hiking tour
We are going to hike from 1st station to 5th station on Yoshida trails. Climbing season over 5th of Mt Fuji is from July 1 ~ Sep10. However, you can hike from the first station to fifth station on Yoshida trails in most seasons. You see many plants along trails and see a few lakes if the weather is good. I recommend these people who come to Mt Fuji out of climbing season or who would like to experience not too hard climbing.

Hiking for the view of Mt Fuji and Aokigahara forest
“Wonderful Day on our Mt Fuji Hike and Aokigahara Forest”
We had a wonderful second day with Chinami enjoying a hike to view mt Fuji and the Aokigahara Forest! We enjoyed 2 days with Chinami touring the Mt Fuji area, we saw so much and she provided a lot of information and fun! Chinami went above and beyond for us - she is a fabulous guide!
“Fabulous Day at Mt Fuji!”
We had a wonderful first day exploring Mt Fuji with Chinami! She took us to the sites we wanted to see while providing information and fun on our tour! Chinami tailored the tour so we explored everything we wanted to and she provided information on other in Mt Fuji that we were curious about. Chinami arrived on time and is a fabulous tour guide!
“Two Day tour around Mt Fuji”
We spent two days touring around the Mt Fuji area with Chinami. We had a very enjoyable time and were able to get many great photos of Mt Fuji and the cherry blossoms. It was very convenient to use her car as getting around is challenging with public transport. Could see way more spots this way. Overall a great experience and would highly recommend Chinami as a guide in the Mt Fuji area.

(62 reviews)Thank you very much for the review. I am glad that you could good photos of Mt Fuji and cherry blossoms. It is much harder to go around without car, especially the weather is so changeable when you take pictures. I hope you come back to the area in different season, maybe fall in Japan to take another great photos. Thank you again and have a nice trip!
