FULL ITINERARY
Ship Arrival
Welcome to one of our Shimizu shore excursions, curated by Shore Excursions Asia for cruise guests seeking exceptional views of Mount Fuji and the scenic coastline. Upon your ship’s arrival at Shimizu Port, your private English speaking guide and driver will be waiting at the cruise terminal holding a personalized welcome board. After a warm greeting and brief introduction, you will proceed by chartered car or coach for a comfortable exploration of the surrounding scenic highlights.
Nihondaira Yume Terrace
Your first stop is Nihondaira Yume Terrace, a contemporary observation deck renowned for its breathtaking panoramic views. From this elevated vantage point, admire the majestic silhouette of Mount Fuji rising above Suruga Bay and the distant Izu Peninsula. The terrace features elegant wooden architecture that harmonizes with the landscape. Take time to explore the small exhibition spaces, browse local specialty shops, or relax at the café while appreciating one of Japan’s most celebrated natural vistas.
Miho no Matsubara
Continue to Miho no Matsubara, a beautiful coastal pine grove stretching along the shoreline. This tranquil setting offers one of the most iconic views of Mount Fuji framed by thousands of pine trees and the sparkling sea. Recognized as part of a UNESCO World Heritage site, the area is deeply connected to classical Japanese poetry and legend. Stroll along the path through the pine forest, breathe in the fresh ocean air, and enjoy memorable photo opportunities with Mount Fuji in the background when weather conditions allow.
Return to Port
After soaking in the scenery and cultural heritage of Shimizu, relax during the comfortable drive back to the cruise port. Arrival is scheduled well in advance of your ship’s departure, ensuring a smooth and worry free return.
