This was a great way to start off our trip to Japan. Miyuki and Miyako were a wonderful pair as tour guide and driver. The moment we got off the cruise ship we were greeted and escorted to our van. Miyuki was very knowledgeable about the area and we learned a lot. She also captured many pictures of our family and took good care of my 2 year old son. She gave him a book and bubbles to play with on the beach. Would highly recommend this tour, especially for those with elderly family members. Both of my parents commented that the tour kept older people in mind.
It was lovely

Our tour guide, Rie, was extremely knowledgeable. She taught us a lot about the history and culture of the area and each of the sites we stopped at. She was delightful, flexible when we arrived early, and made our time in Shimizu lovely.
A great(hot) day with Hiriko

The tour with Hiroko was excellent. Never felt crowded or rushed - we went to places the bigger buses did not so the tour felt more special. It was very hot and humid, and she made adjustments to help us manage the heat better. Thank you!
