About Tour Guide Fumie U.
I am Fumie Ueda, a National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter in Atami, Shizuoka, only 50 minutes away from Tokyo by Shinkansen trains.
Atami is conveniently located at the foot of the Hakone mountains, and the base of the Izu Peninsula. It is also close to Mt. Fuji and the Shimizu Port in Shizuoka. I am excited to show you around beautiful places that I love.
I grew up in Yokohama, spent 1 year as a high school exchange student in Allentown, PA in the US, went to college and lived/worked in Tokyo for about 10 years before coming to this beautiful onsen resort.
After becoming a guide, I met with guests from various backgrounds, and I feel grateful once again, for my experience to be exposed to different cultures in my youth.
Let’s have a good time together!

A Stopover from Shinkansen for Mt. Fuji and Green Tea Farm
Traveling from Tokyo to Kyoto? Why don't you break your journey at Fujinomiya? It is at the southwestern skirt of Mt. Fuji, and is easily accessible for people traveling on Shinkansen train. Why don't you enjoy view of Mt. Fuji, a historical shrine worshipping the sacred mountain (World Heritage Site), a fine museum and a green tea farm?

A Day Excursion to Kamakura
This is a day tour to enjoy the best of Kamakura, a medieval city of samurai warriors, surrounded by hills facing the ocean. During the late 12th to early 14th centuries zen and other popular schools of buddhism flourished there, and therefore, Kamakura has many beautiful temples in a lush green setting. It is possible to arrange your tour to suit your needs and interests, such as zen vegetarian meals or a short hiking.

A Stopover for Mt. Fuji, History & Shopping on Shinkansen bt Tokyo & Kyoto
Traveling from Tokyo to Kyoto on Shinkansen trains? Why don't you make a stop at Shizuoka to enjoy view of Mt. Fuji, history of the greatest SHOGUN, and shopping in a "good-sized" comfortable city? It is far less crowded than big cities like Tokyo or Osaka, and still goood products are available for shopping. Shizuoka is known for production of green tea, and matcha is available at many shops (often out of stock in Tokyo!).

“I would love to go with Fumie again!”
Fumie took us to places we definitely couldn't go without her and enriched our Atami adventure tremendously. She also had to pivot due to circumstances beyond our control and she did so with grace and professionalism. It was a wonderful and memorable day. I'd like to go with her again and do another layer of the sites and history of the area.
