Super Zulu

We followed the Japan-Guide and did this port on our own on the Millenium in 2014. https://www.japan-guide.com/e/e6354.html

 

We walked to Shin-Shimizu station, bought the day pass for local trains and buses. From Shizuoka station, we took the bus up to Nihondaria, then the ropeway up to to the Kunozan Toshogu Shrine. Very nice day and a very good view of Mt. Fuji from up top.

 

Interesting to note: It looks like the train/bus day pass is still the same 1,200 yen that we paid in 2014.

Thank you for your response. Much appreciated!

You'll be dropped at the Hinode wharf. This is the one near S-pulse dream plaza.

 

When we there on Millennium the city did have a half hour shuttle that actually stopped near both railway stations. It was a very nice port visit, one of my faves in Japan.

Hi.

We will be doing a B2B on the Millenium in September 2018 with a stop in Shimizu on the first cruise as well as on the 2nd one a few days later. We are considering travelling to Tokyo from Shimizu on our first stop and have tentatively reserved an excursion with Celebrity for our second stop in Shimizu. Did you do a tour or on your own? We will be doing most ports on our own, but weren't sure about this one. Thank you very much in advance for any advice! Catherine

We are doing the cruise with Celebrity. It leaves from Snaghai on Oct. 17 and finishes in Hong Kong. Then we do another cruise that begins in HongKong and finishes in Singapore. We did Singapore on our own very easily and are considering doing Shanghai on our own (with a good guide book :), except for the water towns - not sure how easy that would be to do on our own. Any thoughts?

Thank you so much for your reply Jennie! This will really help us out. It will be our first time in this part of Asia, aside from a few days in Singapore last Fall. We are doing a back to back that starts in Shanghai and ends in Singapore.

Thanks again

Catherine
