Hi, I am Yasuhiro. Call me Motchee. I am guiding mainly in Hakone, Mt. Fuji, Tokyo, Kamakura, and my local area Shizuoka-Shimizu where you can observe Mt. Fuji clearly. I personally like travelling. So, if you want to go other areas, it is my pleasure to prepare customized tours! My home town Shizuoka has a port named Shimizu, where a lot of large cruise ships visits all the year round. So, about the half of my tours have started from this port. Many tourists from abroad want to see Mt. Fuji. I love to introduce about Mt. Fuji, which is not only a mountain but home to almost all the Japanese people. I have travelled in many foreign countries. In unfamiliar places, I have encountered a lot of kind and heart-warming people who voluntarily guide me to many places where usual travelers wouldn't go to! I really appreciate to their kindness and generosity. So, I wish to be such a kind of person who can be friendly and generous to foreign visitors and tell something different from other guides. For the past decade, the number of tourists from abroad has been rising so amazingly, but almost all the visitors visit some major cities such as Tokyo and Kyoto, which is called a "golden route" in Japan. In Japan, however, there are more attractive places than in Tokyo and Kyoto! Visitors have not noticed the existence or charm of them. Here in Shizuoka, there are a lot of famous and not famous places which should be known more to foreign visitors. In that sense, I want to be a pioneer to introduce the charm of those places and connect them to foreign visitors who willingly want to know about Japan further. I can arrange my tour (including the date and time) flexibly. Especially, cruise passengers are given limited hours in visiting port. I would like to shorten the tour with the same value as the original tour or prolong it if you want it. So, don't hesitate to ask me to make a difference. I want to be a flexible tour guide. I am looking forward to your booking! National Tour Guide-Interpreter Licence (#115) National Tour Conductor I am a professional governmental licensed tour guide for English speaking people.

There are a lot of hot spa resorts all over Japan. Among them, Hakone is a well-known place to stay near Tokyo. Here in Shizuoka, however, there are splendid hot spa resorts in the Izu Peninsula. Izu (Atami and Ito) is not far from the Tokyo district, and these two places have long been loved by domestic hot spa goers. Unfortunately, these places are not familiar with foreign visitors. There are many scenic spots such as beautiful natural landscapes, hot spa resort hotels, relaxing beaches, and rich cuisines both from sea or mountain. You will be absolutely amazed by the scenery and pretty satisfied with the hot spa resort facilities, which will make you stay as long as possible, and you will want to come back here. Two places are within 30 km of each other, so it takes about 3 hours by train or 1 and a half hours by taxi. Enjoy the wonderful landscape and scenery, then sink into the deep bathtub to your heart's content. This tour must be a special moment during your tour in Japan.
