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!

Overview of your Tokyo tour

Mt. Fuji is only a two-hour bus ride from Tokyo. Please allow me to show you the highlights of this enchanting dormant volcano and the surrounding areas. We will be able to visit Mt. Fuji 5th Station, Lake Kawaguchi, and/or Fujisan World Heritage Center. Mt. Fuji is the highest and most celebrated mountain in Japan boasting the height of 3, 776m(12, 388ft. ). By the end of this tour, I am sure that you will understand why we have had "awe and respect" for this mountain since ancient times. At the 5th Station, we can enjoy a magnificent and breathtaking view above the clouds. It will definitely be an unforgettable travel experience in Japan for you. And then we will visit Lake Kawaguchi, one of the Fuji Five Lakes. *In the winter season and early spring, the road to the 5th Station is often closed due to ice and snow. If that is the case, we will go up to the highest possible point of the mountain. **There is NO operation on weekends and national holidays except the winter season.

We had a great time on the Mt. Fuji trip! It was a perfect day with no clouds so we were able to get a great view of the mountain. Sachiko purchased the bus ride tickets in advanced and she did an amazing job of making sure we were where we needed to be on time. We also went to the Ninja village and ended our trip at Oshino village. She even had treats for the kids to eat on the bus which was really thoughtful. I highly recommend booking a tour with Sachiko!

Sachiko was an excellent guide!!! Sachiko was able to customize my trip to my interests (we even had time to take a short walk in the forest). I had the good fortune of having an incredibly clear day to see Mt. Fuji!! My trip was great! Do not pass up the kimono museum in town -it was an amazing and beautiful experience. Sachiko was incredibly knowledgeable and saw to all my needs!

Sachiko was an excellent guide! She suggested we hire a private car which was a fantastic idea for a full day trip to Mt Fuji! She was knowledgeable, kind, professional and completely enjoyable to be with! We would hire her again in a minute!
