Wonderful Journey, Beautiful Guide

Hi We are a family from India and we took the Alpine Route Tour on 21st May 2019. We were fortunate enough to have a wonderful guide in Saki Kawai. Saki is very informative and intelligent. Throughout the tour she kept on telling us interesting details about the various places along the Alpine Route. She is very cheerful and enthusiastic and took good care of us during the tour. We had a wonderful trip and we would love to explore Alpine Route once again during Autumn, with Saki Thanks a lot Saki

Mr

My son and I signed up for a private snow trekking tour by Saki-san. This is my first experience of walking in the snow. Even before the date of the tour, Saki-san checked the weather and advised us on the best day to do the tour. Her information turned out to be accurate and we did the tour on a bright and clear day and were able to take many good pictures. Saki-san was also able to tailor the tour to our requirements. She helped us to avoid the crowds and gave us a Tateyama experience that most tourists would not have. I would describe Saki-san's English to be near native level and we had no difficulty communicating with her at all. Throughout the tour, Saki-san also looked after our safety and welfare and I was able to complete my first snow trekking experience despite my age. The guide fee was reasonable and we would certainly recommend Saki-san's private tour.

Private Tateyama Tour

My son and I spent 12 days in Japan this year on our vacation and we must say that this tour has got to be the highlight of it. Our Guide Saki is exceptional! She is not just guiding us on the day itself, but days leading to our visit to Japan, providing us a checklist of what we ought to have and keeping us up to date with the 'snow situation'. We started at 6.20am where Saki came to our hotel and from that moment on, we were in good hands. Everything went smoothly and we did not have to worry about a thing. This translates to not just time savings for us, but also that she took us to rent boots which allowed us to walk on the snow, getting the insurance for us, in case something happens on the mountain. We had a great walk around this lake which was just so impressive. I noticed that those who had been on the way up on the Trolley Bus, etc, was not able to go all the way deep into the snow fields like we did. I had some reservations initially as I find it daunting to walk on steps which was covered with snow. We saw men carrying wood to protect the hotel exterior as they prepare to close for the year, and they all know Saki, and they gave me the much needed reassurance to be brave. At my age and living in the tropics, I must say that I really needed much encouragement. Everything was simply magical, the views, the wind, the snow, hearing so much about the place; we had such a great time and the icing on the cake is, Saki took lots of photos for us and sent right back to us. This is so appreciated! Too often, tourists want to save money by doing things on their own. However, the value of a good Guide is invaluable. When we were up in the mountains, saw and did what many who went without the guides, it makes all the difference. I find the expertise of a good Guide, invaluable. This day will be in my memory for years to come and I thank Saki for making the day so special for me and my son. Her passion and enthusiasm and energy is simply, infectious. She speaks good English and has great personality that will simply make you, so happy.
