We preferred cultural sites rather than markets and she made excellent use of our brief time in town since we were visiting on a cruise ship. Highly recommended.”

“Lovely way to see the city in the eyes of a local. We had a 4 hour walking tour and even though it was a very wet day, we enjoyed every moment. We say many sights, tried lots of different snacks and took it all the city had to offer. Our guide was very courteous, friendly and went out of her way to help us out with restaurants bookings and recommendation, even after our tour with her had ended.”

Explore Miyazaki, Takachiho Gorge, and sacred shrines from Fukuoka on a 10-hour guided day trip with optional boat ride and lunch.

“I wanted to thank Saki for an amazing job with helping the multi-language chaos that was our group. She handled everything excellently and made the tour that much better just by being herself. The scenery was amazing, the locations unique and interesting (a lot of slopes and stairs on the first stop - quite a workout!). I recommend this tour for anyone who loves the mixture of the beauty of the Japanese countryside and the traditions of their past.”
