Hello! Konnichiwa! My name is Sachiko. I am a government licensed tour guide living in Sayama city near Tokyo and would love to show you all over my home country Japan. From the ever-popular tourist hot spots like Sensoji Temple in Asakusa, to the more unusual and rather unique local sites like Golden Gai in Shinjuku. Let me share personalized stories with you that will enhance your understanding of Japanese culture and its long history. I am a quite experienced tour guide. I have delivered tours for more than 1, 200 travel days since I received my license in 2006. I can create detailed customized tours, from single participant to large groups of 40 people. I will also be able to arrange a car, a van or a bus for your convenient transportation. I can build from a half day tour to a 2-week tour which is called "the golden route tour of Japan" . Please tell me all about your interests and the kind of places you would like to see. I am proud of my flexibility with scheduling to meet all of your needs, helping to make the most of your valuable time here. Before becoming a tour guide, I operated a language school in my place of residence for more than 15 years. I like to cook, visit art museums and do Japanese calligraphy. I also like to travel around the world and had great fun in many places which I visited. Because of my experience in intercultural business and my hobbies, I believe that I can meet all of your travel needs. I always enjoy meeting people and making new friends. Let's travel together!

Due to the popularity of Mt. Fuji, I hope to take you along what I believe is the best sightseeing route. To begin our trip we will go up to Mt. Fuji's middle point, the 5th Station. And at Hakone, we will take a relaxing cruise on Lake Ashi and ride the ropeway to Owakudani Valley. Mt. Fuji is the most popular tourist attractions in Japan and it is also the highest mountain in Japan at 3, 776m(12, 388ft). It has been worshipped and loved by the Japanese people since ancient times as a holly mountain. Thankfully the volcano has been inactive for over 300 years, and we can safely go up to the 5th Station by vehicles except during winter seasons. Hakone is one of the most popular mountain resorts in Japan, situated on the Hakone Caldera floor surrounded by the crater walls. It is famous for hot springs and seasonal mountain beauty including spring cherry blossoms and autumn colors. The spectacular views that nature has given to us will stay in your heart for a long time.
