Exciting Mt. Fuji - One Day Tour from Tokyo
In this tour, we will visit two of the most popular Mt. Fuji viewing spots. My favorite part of this tour is when I take you to Arakurayama Sengen Park where we can have the most beautiful view of Mt. Fuji with five-story pagoda. I think this is the best place for Mt. Fuji viewing, but it is located in a little bit complicated place. So, I can take you here in the most efficient way.

Naritasan Shinshoji temple before your flight
If you have more than 4 hours before your flight at Narita airport, you should visit Naritasan Shinshoji temple, and experience Japanese culture. It's a time-honored temple with a history of over 1000 years. In my opinion, it's the best temple in Tokyo region with great traditional buildings, beautiful Japanese gardens and Japanese food. Here, I can tell almost everything about Japanese couture and traditions to you. I can make your layover time in Japan more enjoyable and fruitful !!

Exciting Kamakura - One Day Tour from Tokyo
Kamakura is called "Kyoto of Eastern Japan", because it used to be the capital of Japan from 12th to 14th century, and the first government by the Shogun, a top of samurai warriors, was located here.

“Wonderful and efficient!”
I loved the tour around tokyo and wished I had more days to explore. My guide Hideaki , was knowledgeable, friendly and explained in detail the various attractions we visited. It was a very pleasant day and was lucky to get a view of the mount fuji from the observation deck. Loved the stroll along the quiet backstreets of tokyo. Absolutely loved the excellent display of various foods at a farmers market especially ,the sushi. I really enjoyed the tour and Thank you Hideaki for your company.

“Beautiful first glimpse of Tokyo”
Hideaki was very professional. He researched everything that we wanted to do and timed it like clockwork so we could be back for our flight on time without feeling hurried or like we missed out on anything. My son was very happy eating sushi in Tokyo and visiting the Nintendo store!
