This experience was truly exceptional. To begin with, Akito checked in with us several times before the tour to make aure we were prepared and our preferences vis a vis lunch. He greeted us warmly, then drove us to a tea farm just outside of town with stunning views of the city and mountains. After explaining tea cultivation and an al fresco tea tasting, we visited the factory where the tea was processed. There we were educated on the steps involved and shown the elaborate machinery used to do it (which was fascinating even though it was not in use that day). Then we went to lunch, where we were given succulent tuna along with various interesting side dishes. Then we walked to a tea house specializing in single origin teas from Shizuoka and beyond. There the shop attendant served us several different types of tea, all of them distinct from each other in very interesting ways. Then we strolled through the main shopping area, stopping at a shop specializing in matcha, which had delicious gelato in seven different strengths of matcha. Then we walked back to our starting point. Throughout the tour Akito shared his vast knowledge of tea, his love for his hometown of Shizuoka. He was keen to answer any questions we had about tea or other topics, and also was curious about how we were experiencing Japan and who we were in general. Overall, it was a glorious whirlwind introduction to the world of tea and Shizuoka in general. Akito clearly loves doing this, and we greatly appreciated.

Koichi and Kyoko were the perfect hosts. Koichi picked us up from the station and drove us around the area while stopping here and there to taste tea, enjoy nature, etc. My friend and I were then given a tour of a tea factory before getting lunch at an observatory where we could see Mt. Fuji. We then helped a couple of the local tea farmers with their work as we learned about how they cultivate and harvest the tea leaves. The farmers were super sweet and patient with us as we fumbled around the field and even gave us snacks during breaks. Once the work was done, we went to our accommodations for the night where Koichi and Kyoko prepared a traditional Kaiseki dinner and breakfast for us. Both meals were delicious and beautiful. All in all, it was an enlightening day and we will never look at tea the same way ever again. The amount of work and dedication that go into the production of tea is both impressive and humbling, and we really appreciated being given a glimpse into their world. If you ever come to Japan, I highly recommend booking this experience as a part of your trip.

Thank you for a memorable and relaxing experience! Akito, who came from a long line of tea farmers, made the whole thing feel so personal and authentic. Walking through the beautiful tea fields, learning how the leaves are grown and processed, and interesting tea facts gave me a whole new appreciation for tea. Akito let us try different types of tea and even taught us what gives tea its umami, astringency, sweetness and bitterness. I left with some amazing tea and a newfound respect for the craft. So glad I did the tour!

Akito is very knowledgeable and professional. He showed us a local farm and explained the leaf picking process. At the factory, he explained the tea production process. We tasted tea prepared different ways, and we gained understanding of what made the teas so different. It was a very educational and enjoyable tour. The view from the mountain was incredible!
