Things to do in Shizuoka Prefecture

We joined this Mount Fuji tour on June 22, and we were incredibly lucky to have a clear view of Mount Fuji! It was such an unforgettable experience. Our guide, Kerry, was wonderful—she shared many helpful tips, took us to the best photo spots, and was so kind, friendly, and attentive throughout the day. Everything was well organized, and I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Japan. Thank you, Kerry, for making our trip so special!

Best Guide Won Yang!!!!! Hakone & Mt. Fuji One-Day Tour Review 🗻 (feat. The Best Guide Ever) As the highlight of my Tokyo trip, I went on a Hakone & Mt. Fuji one-day tour. It was the most memorable day of this trip, and at the heart of it was our incredibly kind guide, Won Yang!!! From the early morning meeting point in Shinjuku, our guide greeted each person with a bright smile and took care of us. On the bus ride, they explained the history of Mt. Fuji and various sights and information about Hakone, so there was never a dull moment. It wasn't just about guiding us to places; they also thoughtfully provided detailed information in advance, like the best times to use the restroom and how long until the next activity, which made us feel very comfortable. The itinerary was packed, including a Hakone cruise and a hot spring village, making me wonder how it was possible to fit so much into one day. Yet, the guide's expertise ensured the schedule was well-distributed so we didn't feel tired. What was most impressive was their attitude towards people. They patiently waited for the elderly members of our group to match their walking pace and answered even small questions with a smile, never showing any sign of annoyance. On the way back, despite what must have been a tiring day, their bright voice and dedication to getting us back safely felt truly sincere. It made me realize how much meeting a good guide can transform the quality of a trip. If you're considering a Hakone & Mt. Fuji tour, I highly, highly recommend Guide Won Yang. To our guide who led us today, thanks to you, it was an unforgettable day. Thank you so much, and please stay healthy! 🙏🗻🎈❤️💓💖💕😄😄

Itinerary: Mount Omuro, train, coast. Time: Meet at 7:00 AM, return to Tokyo Marunouchi South Gate at 6:30 PM. Journey: There was some traffic on Saturday. We departed at 7:00 AM and arrived at 10:30 AM. We waited in line for about 15 minutes at Mount Omuro. After walking around and stopping, we didn't have time to eat udon noodles at the cafeteria. The train had seats facing the ocean, but the full ocean view didn't last very long. We spent about 35 minutes exploring the coast. Tour Guide/Driver: Master Long was enthusiastic, professional, and thoughtful. The day before, he helped everyone find the most convenient route in the group chat. He greeted us warmly first thing in the morning and provided detailed explanations for each location, including playtime, location, and important notes. He also thoughtfully considered various needs and always asked if anyone had other questions at the end of his explanations, assuring us we could ask him anytime. He delivered on this throughout the trip, making it a very comfortable day.

I did my tour with Serina and she is an absolutely lovely person that gives it at least 110% effort in order to make the journey as pleasant and as smooth as possible for everyone. I usually dislike tours like this to be honest, as the itinerary is either bad or tour guide not managing the group well enough in order for everyone being on time. Serina managed all of that excellently though and I would choose to travel with her again for sure. Had a great day, thank you Serina!

Great experience! Laner Jin was an awesome tour guide, very knowledgable and helpful when we had questions! We got lucky with the weather today and Mt. Fuji showed herself to us a few times! She was playing hide and seek with the clouds but we were able to get a few pics with her. We also were able to pick up some souvenirs and even brought back some water straight from Mt. Fuji! The Gotemba Premium Outlets was a plus and we got to kill two birds with one stone with this day trip! Good stores and really good deals! Would definitely recommend if you want to sightsee and shop!

We had wonderful trip to Fuji! We were lucky and had beautiful sunny day, so we saw shy Fuji in all it's beauty. All points are worth to see. Our guide Yuri was very kind and professional, help us on every point, make photos of us.. The We highly recomend this tour, value for money is reasonable.

Booked a day trip bcs we wanted to go to Shizuoka. When booing the trip, I specifically requested for halal/Muslim-friendly food recommendations. Our tour guide, Zhao, was very helpful in ensuring we manage to get Muslim-friendly food. He's also very knowledgeable about the places he brings us to and quite funny 😂. We enjoyed the trip a lot, exploring the beauty of Izu. Thank you, Zhao for all the explanations, guidance and assistance provided. Highly recommended 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

When planning our trip to Tokyo with the kids, I was very careful in choosing a tour. My choice turned out to be absolutely excellent. Meeting our guide, Kanazawa Seiga, was also incredibly fortunate. Our meeting point was Tokyo Station at 8 AM, and since our accommodation was in the Ariake area, I was worried about being late even though we woke up early to prepare and took the bus. However, I was so grateful that the guide kept in touch via KakaoTalk, providing updates, and even came to pick us up from the bus stop to the meeting point. Thankfully, we made it onto the bus right at 8 AM. During the journey, the guide smiled brightly and shared many interesting stories. I thought our second child wasn't paying attention, but it turned out they listened to everything the guide said and even recounted it to me, which made me proud. I thought we wouldn't be able to see Mount Fuji, but it was incredibly clear and visible, making this a truly satisfying tour. The guide also took many enthusiastic photos and provided excellent information, which was wonderful. I will definitely book this tour again next time! Thanks to you, it was a very happy tour.

lovely place which allows you to get up close and personal with a variety of animals. Boat ride was fun too but take note they only speak Japanese.
