We had both a driver and a Guid. The car was a large van taxi. Our guide Kiyo was excellent. Her English was very good. She talked to us about Japan, culture and geography between stops. We comfortably saw all 4 places in the itinerary in 4 hours. I would highly recommend this tour. Ask for Kiyo.
We loved it !

We had an awesome day in Shimizu! Toshogu Shrine was stunning as was the view of Mt. Fuji from the tea farm and the beach. We were very fortunate to have great weather. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable and our driver's skill negotiating tight turns was remarkable. Our group had a great time!
Outstanding!
