The best private 4 hours tour from Shimizu port( a chartered taxi for two peolpe)

We had a great time. The tea ceremony was perfect. Thanks

We enjoyed a lovely tour with Hiroko from the Shimizu cruise port. In her friendly manner, she made our day stress-free, fun and we saw everything we hoped for and more! We were even able to do our own private tea ceremony (no big groups) and try our hand at making matcha in the traditional way with the tea master. Lunch was a delicious sushi bowl at the fish market and we tried other snacks along the way. Thank you Hiroko for a great shore excursion in Shimizu!

Hiroko is a wonderful guide. We had a shore day in Shimizu. She prepared a great itinerary which included the rope way gondola ride to the mountain shrine, a visit to the tea fields, a private tea ceremony, the wood cut museum, and lunch. We only wanted a five hour tour. She was excellent. At every stop, she fully explained the significance of each and every site. Her command of English is outstanding, as she studied abroad and is well travelled. She arranged for a perfect car and driver for the day which is required if one is to visit the spots. We highly recommend her.

This tour was conducted by Hiroko I. In an extended 4-hour package, she showed us places we would otherwise have missed. We got to experience and participate in things with local craftsmen which we thoroughly enjoyed. For example, we had a perfect view of Mt. Fuji from the gardens of a tea farm. We also produced our own pieces of art at a historical art museum. She is very proficient in English. Hiroko is knowledgeable, courteous, helpful, polite and cheerful. She was quick to answer our various questions to our complete satisfaction. She is an absolute joy to work with. She expertly coordinated transportation and tickets for our entire package. I would strongly recommend Hiroko for any tour a client might want conducted in her area, 5 stars (6 if you had them)

We had a great tour of Shimizu with Hiroko. We lucked out an had perfect weather, so had views of Mt Fuji. We started at a tea plantation and learned how tea is hand picked (most is done by machine). Then we took the ropeway (actually a gondola) to the beautiful Toshogu Shrine, then visited the Miho Pine Grove, and walked along the beach below for fantastic views of Mt Fuji. Hiroko then took us to a local restaurant for a delicious meal. We finished our trip with a tour of the Shimizu Fish Market.

We were very happy to meet Hiroko for our tour in Shizuoka. She made us feel like we were friends from a past life and treated us to a day filled with conversation & sharing travel stories together. We had to adjust our plans because of the rain, but Hiroko came prepared with alternate suggestions. We went to Shiraito Falls which was glorious in the rain, and also took the ropeway to Kunozan Toshogu Shrine, & she made sure we made it back in town before the kakigori shop closed, it was delicious & fun!
