**Please check my calendar for availability before inquiring** Greeting from the land of Mt. Fuji, Japan! My name is Moto, a nationally certificated English-speaking guide. Do you know where the famous Mt. Fuji is in Japan? Geographically Mt. Fuji is just located on the border between Shizuoka and Yamanashi. Southern part belongs in Shizuoka and Northern part in Yamanashi. Interestingly the feature of Mt. Fuji is completely different as for view and attractions from two states. From Shizuoka, sunlight shines on the hillside of the mountain all the year. We can see its brightly iconic spectacles combined with the ocean, tea plantation or a bullet train. Whereas, from Yamanashi, snow covers on the top half of the mountain in winter and remains until early summer. Gorgeous natural beauty with Fuji Five Lakes and Aokigahara Sea of Trees. Why did I mention such a story? Honestly I was born in Shizuoka and now live in Yamanashi! That proves I know all about Mt. Fuji and its surrounding area. Nature, culture, history, food, people. . . including local charms that guidebooks never show. I do guarantee you will be satisfied with my tour tailored as you like! Hope to hear from you soon! Ex. I have a license of mountain trekking guide. Planning from one day's short hike to overnight expedition in Mt. Fuji and Southern Alps mountains is available. Ask for details. National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter (English) Japan Mountain Guide Association Trekking Guide (Stage I) I am not a driver/guide and that transportation will be arranged and charged separately.

The world-famous Mt. Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan at an altitude of 3, 776 meters. Also, its beautiful iconic shape has been worshiped as a sacred place since ancient times. The Fujiyoshida climbing route was walked by many pilgrims in the Edo era, 400 years ago. Still now, historical ruins of shrines and lodges remain along the trail in silence. The nostalgic trail goes on in tranquil woods upward heading to the 5th station. If possible, take you to the open-viewed 6th station of 2, 350 meters high. The panoramic outlook of the top and foothill is blessing you. I have a license for the mountain trekking guide certificated by JMGA. The most important issue for mountaineering is safety management. All guiding activities strictly keep the guidelines regulated by JMGA. My expert skills for performing in the case of emergencies including rescue methods promise your journeys safe. *This tour is only available from mid-May to mid-November (except for the snow season).
