Tokyo Full-Day Mount Omuro, Izu Cactus Park & Jogasaki Coast Tour

Long drive along the coastline to Omuro, scenic and car was comfortable, ¥1000 pp for a cable ride to go up Omuro Mountain, fog rolled in so couldn’t see much, it was very chilly at the top so I brought a T-shirt for ¥3800, not much of a choice up there so just bring an extra shirt or jacket. Our guide, Wei, was very nice and accommodating, we managed to communicate through text on WhatsApp. we had about 2 1/2 hours to check out Omuro and the zoo, but it wasn’t clear, so some people had only half an hour to check out the zoo. The entrance fee of the zoo was ¥2800 on weekdays, save your cable ticket and get ¥100 off zoo fee. so much to see at the zoo so I would try to spend more time at the zoo, then drove to Jogasaki, walked along the jagged rocks and crossed a small bridge, which looked bigger and different in the ad. Then went to the marine market for 30 minutes, I did buy a lot only to realize it’s cheaper at the regular local stores. good trip to get away from city

We had such an amazing day exploring the Izu area! Visiting Mount Omuro was such a unique experience with incredible views, and Izu Shaboten Zoo was so fun with all the animals and cacti. The scenery at Jogasaki Coast was absolutely stunning, and walking across the Kadowaki Suspension Bridge was both exciting and beautiful. Our driver/tour guide was so helpful and kind, making everything smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend this tour!

an experience to remember - all of it - mount Omuro, the train ride, the suspension bridge, walking along the coastal back to the bus - beautiful scenery. Mt Fuji was clearly seen from Mt Omuro. Edward, our guide was the best - very informative and helpful.

Ko and Liu took me on my first guided tour and I had an wonderful time! Ko was really knowledgeable in fun facts about Mount Fuji and the places we visited. If you’re thinking about this, do it! It was really worth it!

We took almost 3 hours to arrive the 1st destination due to traffic jam on the highway. However, we truly enjoyed the Mount Omuro & the view of Mount Fuji. We visiting the Zoo as well. Riding on the Sight seeing Black train, find the special seat car 1, enjoyed the scenery of the coaster line make us so relax. Lastly, visiting the suspended bridge is so amazing due to good weather.

Never expect the trip to have be so much fun. Taking the ropeway to the top of Mount Omuro was a very good experience and can see Mount Fuji clearly. The animals in Izu Shaboten Zoo are very cute. Overall, a very good experience and glad to have a responsible guide with us.

we took a mini bus and the driver was really safe the entire ride, especially during the long jams of about 3hr in the morning and 4-5hr in the evening. unfortunately we werent able to visit the zoo and ito marine town due to the expected jam. but our time at the mountain and the ocean views more than made up for it. the drive along the coastal views were really scenic as well. and we were lucky to be able to spot mount fuji too!

Although the meeting time was 7 o'clock, the advantage of driving early is that there won't be any traffic jams. The driver and tour guide are the same person. Because it's a small group, we were in a 10-seater van, which was quite comfortable. The driver speaks Mandarin, is very nice and polite, and deserves praise. I hope to meet him again on future tours. He's far better than the drivers and tour guides from the previous two days. I really don't want to meet those two again, especially that dangerous driver who turns his head to talk while driving. Seeing that, I was speechless. If this tour was in May, it would be lush green, but now it's greenish-yellow. However, I think it's worth seeing, and you can also see the view of Mount Fuji from afar. Riding the special train is just okay, because after taking the train in Kansai to see the autumn leaves, I think you can skip this one. Watching the sea from the train is even better. We ate the famous Splendid Alfonsino (Kinmedai) sushi in the fishing village, which was very fresh and super affordable.

It’s so lovely to see wonders of Izu, the views on the way to every destination are stunning and Andy is a skilled and kind driver who makes sure you arrive at each spot safely. Definitely recommend!

The best tour we had in Japan! i will recommend this to my friends visiting Japan. this is the Japan I’m looking for. Mt. Omuro and the shaboten zoo was the highlight but everything’s great I must say! what an experience! Andy Shi was our tour guide and driver and he did great thank you for the experience!
