Things to do in Izu Shaboten Zoo

This trip was in a family setting and together with my niece who loved cappybara. The zoo is very clean and well kept. It is far from Tokyo but this is less crowded. Buying tickets online makes it convenient to enter.

I highly recommend booking a group tour for the Izu day trip; every attraction we visited was beautiful, and the experience was excellent. However, the weather is crucial. When I went, it was slightly overcast, so the sea captured from the sightseeing train wasn't as blue, but the scenery along the way was still lovely. My personal favorite was Mount Omuro; it was adorably green, like a matcha pudding. Even though it wasn't a perfectly sunny day, it didn't detract from my experience exploring Mount Omuro. The Cactus Park is diagonally opposite the base of Mount Omuro. Our driver mentioned we could allocate our own time to visit Mount Omuro and the park, but I chose to spend more time at Mount Omuro's attractions and didn't enter the park, so I can't comment on it. The driver arranged for this trip was very punctual and responsible. There were people of different nationalities in the car, and he introduced each attraction to us in both English and Chinese, with very clear directions. The seats in the car were clean and comfortable. Overall, the experience was quite good, so I recommend everyone choose this Izu day trip! I wish you all a pleasant journey and sunny weather!

​My wife and I recently booked the Klook Mt. Omuro & Izu trip, and we couldn't be happier with the experience, largely thanks to our guide, Andrew. He was exceptionally attentive, organized, and welcoming throughout the entire day. Andrew truly went the extra mile for everyone in our group, taking amazing care of all the details and making sure we were both comfortable and well looked after. His energy, thoughtfulness, and dedication made our trip truly memorable. Thank you, Andrew!

I would like to commend your driver, Mr. Hada ( 秦健朗 ) for the excellent service he provided during the Mt. Omuro Day Tour on 11 June 2026. Mr. Hada was professional, friendly, patient, and helpful throughout the trip. He drove safely, ensured that passengers were comfortable, and managed the itinerary efficiently while allowing us sufficient time to enjoy the attractions. His clear communication, punctuality, and positive attitude made the tour pleasant and enjoyable for everyone. We truly appreciated his dedication and excellent customer service, which contributed greatly to our wonderful experience at Mt. Omuro. Please convey our sincere thanks and appreciation to Mr. Hada (秦健朗 ) for a job well done.

Omgosh! This was a long drive, but Mr. Jhon was amazing. We had a random stop for Potty Break and found some unique snacks. Hakone is so beautiful and green in June. The weather was perfect and we saw Mt. Fuji so many times.

Mila was our guide and she was amazing! She explained everything clearly and went above and beyond for me. It was a long day but the spots were beautiful if you just wanted a quick day trip/break from Tokyo. I am a solo female traveller also and I thoroughly enjoyed it!!

I would recommend this tour and appreciate guide's behaviour and managing skills.

A very responsible team. Our group had a small number of participants, so the vendor switched to a private car service to accommodate us, which was very convenient. Despite bad weather, they still provided the service on the day, showing great integrity. The driver's professionalism and focus on safety made us feel completely at ease throughout our day trip.

We had a wonderful experience on this Izu day tour! The meeting point was easy to find, and our driver spoke excellent English, making everything easy to understand. He was also very accommodating, especially whenever anyone needed a bathroom break. Although we were disappointed that Mt. Omuro was closed, the tour operator informed us ahead of time that it would be unavailable from June 15 to 25, which we appreciated. Instead, we visited Izu Shaboten Zoo, and it became one of the highlights of our trip. Interacting with the capybaras was so much fun, and many of the animals roamed freely, making the experience even more memorable. Jogasaki Coast was breathtaking, and crossing the Kadonowaki Suspension Bridge offered incredible ocean views. The seaside train ride was also scenic and relaxing. Even without Mt. Omuro, this tour exceeded our expectations and is one I would happily recommend.
