Go Shishi!

Our trip today was guided by Shishi, a friendly and knowledgeable guide. We walked through Tsukiji market and the shrines surrounding it and learned a lot of interesting facts about history, culture and the cuisine of Japan. Not only that, but he took his time to give our small group some helpful tips about the city transport and more sightseeing opportunities. Overall a pleasant and comfortable experience :)

A memorable first trip to Japan

Since this is our first trip to Japan, Tourist Japan has met our expectations so far, from the planning to answering our questions. We just completed our second day and we were paired with a enthusiastic and knowledgeable tour guide named Aki. We had a splendid time at Tsukiji Fish Market, trying different delicacies offered. I highly recommend Tourist Japan for your first trip to Japan.

Ask for Aki!

Even though I lived in Japan before for 9 years, I learned so much from our Tour Guide Aki! He was so amazing because of his knowledge of history: energetic and passionate spirit and terrific sense of humor! His attention to detail and the way he interacted with all of his group were so helpful and enjoyable. If you’re planning a trip to Tokyo ask for Aki and I guarantee you’ll be as happy and grateful as I am!

The guided trip to Mount Fuji was truly…

The guided trip to Mount Fuji was truly wonderful. Our guide was friendly, thoughtful, and genuinely caring throughout the day. He talked with us during the drive, sharing interesting stories and insights not only about Mount Fuji but also about Japanese culture and daily life. He was very considerate of everyone’s requests and needs, making sure we were comfortable and happy the entire time.

The itinerary itself was excellent, the choice of locations we visited was perfect, and the planning took into account the weather conditions, which made the experience even more enjoyable.
What made the experience special was how personal it felt the guide took time to get to know us, asked questions, and created a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. It felt more like a day out with friends than a typical group tour. Highly recommended!

Great locations, numerous stops

We had an overall great time! The bus stopped at 5 locations to see Mt Fuji, temples, gardens and lunch. Would recommend comfortable shoes for walking and lots of steps, but every climb or walk was worth the view. This was definitely a tour for great photos, not for history lessons or cultural knowledge.

Meeting Mt. Fuji-san

The tour guide Bond was wonderful and made our experience to view and photograph Mt. Fuji a great one. I hope to pront and frame one of the images of Mt. Fuji, which would be a nice way to remember the experience.

Enjoyed the day tour to Mount Fuji and Lake Kawaguchiko

Good stops to get some great views of Mount Fuji and surroundings. We greatly enjoyed the hike up the Arakurayama shrine and Chureito pagoda. Lake Kawaguchiko views and the garden was also excellent. The weather was not favorable at the Mt. Fuji station 5 stop but we enjoyed looking around and being there. The guide, Makoto was very helpful in pointing us to the right places for the views and our choice of food.

A fun morning visiting Tsukiji fish market.
Met some wonderful fellow travellers who were great company. Our guide Daniel did a great job taking us around the busy streets of the market without losing any of us and doing his best to ensure we were all catered for.
