Shizuoka Tempura 1-day Tours

A very personal and welcoming experience that felt more like visiting locals than joining a tour. Enjoying matcha and wagashi alongside live shamisen music was a highlight. The hosts shared stories about the area that made the meal feel meaningful. The atmosphere was calm, intimate, and authentic. A lovely choice for travelers seeking cultural connection rather than typical tourist activities.

This experience combined local Shizuoka dishes with cultural elements in a warm, relaxed setting. The hosts were friendly and communicated well in English, making it easy to follow along. The shamisen performance added a special cultural touch to the meal. The food felt homemade and rooted in the region. It works especially well when paired with other nearby sightseeing.

I went on the Mount Fuji Tour with my wife. We were guided by Lauren and Alex and they were fantastic to travel with! They took us to some local traditional restaurants which were great, but the best food on the tour was at the yakisoba restaurant! We enjoyed the Mount Fuji Museum too. We didn't get to see real Fuji-San as it was raining on the day we went, sadly, but our guides were great and so were the food. We got to taste some really amazing local food and learnt a lot about the Mount Fuji Area!
