The trip was completely customisable and Eli (our guide) was amazing. She put together all the things that we wanted to do while explaining the Japanese culture and art forms. It was an enriching afternoon and we enjoyed visiting temples, shrines, besides trying our hand at doll making. We also found an amazing vegetarian place to have lunch. Thank you Eli for the great experience

Bruce was an excellent tour guide, from the moment he got in contact with us prior to our trip! Bruce was very insightful and had a great itinerary! We had lunch at a fantastic place for lunch and gave a great suggestion for dinner ( and was yummy! ) he showed us the ins and outs of riding the subway and we took a Uber too! If we’re ever back in Fukuoka in the future we’ll be sure to have Bruce be our guide again! We highly recommend Bruce!
Our tour was awesome thanks to Eli

Eli made the tour fun and personal giving multiple suggestions of her favorite places and showing us both the bright lights and hidden gems of Fukuoka. She made an in depth schedule and was able to change it on the fly depending on our interests. My wife and I laughed constantly throughout the tour with Eli which made the experience completely worth it. Felt like hanging with a friend.
Ai did a good job playing things by ear

We were pretty tired of shrines and temples so requested more of a city tour. Ai was very good at showing us her city and keeping it interesting. We had a lovely sushi lunch as well as enjoying a lot of underground Fukuoka since we had a rainy day. Good tour.
