Fukuoka Private Tours &amp; Local Tour Guides

I am a licensed guide interpreter. I have seven years of working experience in a foreign company, where I enjoyed communicating with people with various backgrounds. So I love my job as a guide that can broaden my view through direct interaction with foreign visitors. I have been living in Fukuoka for 16 years. Among several cities I have lived or stayed in before, Fukuoka is the best place with rich nature, history, exciting urban areas and excellent cuisine! Let me help you fully enjoy your stay in Fukuoka through my tour.

Masazumi T.

Hello, my name is Masa. I live in Fukuoka city. After entering the big company in Japan as an engineer, I went to America to study for 1 year and 8 months. I have experience working with many American and European engineers. I worked as design section manager and construction manager. After retirement I worked at the group company as a director for seven years. Then I started an English volunteer guide. I have guided so many people from all over the world for 5 and half years. It is very fun to meet many foreigners. I prepared many tour courses and many nice restaurants. You can select one of them. After visiting your favorite tourist spot, I take you to the nice delicious local restaurant at Fukuoka. You can tell what kind of food you want to eat. I recommend Tempura and Sashimi, Teppanyaki, Sushi, Sukiyaki, and so on. I want you enjoy eating meal and talking with Japanese. I teach you some manner of Japanese food. I am really looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi! I am Kazue. I am from Fukuoka and live in the central city. I spent almost 20 years traveling around the world as a cabin attendant. Meeting different people, different cultures and eating local food were best things in my career. This experience definitely widened my perspective and will help me in some way when I work as a guide. Since I spent half my life outside of Japan, I noticed our culture and traditions are very unique and became more interested in historical sites in Japan. For my personal life, I am a mom of twins. It is still a hard work but I am enjoying a lot with them. We take them around Kyushu whenever possible for their fun and experience. We all love traveling after all. I am looking forward to showing you around our hometown soon!

Hello, everyone!! My name is Yukihiro(行博), call me "HERO". I'm eager to introduce this unique country, Japan to foreign guests. I am not a professional interpreter. I have retired from Japan Ground Self-Defense Force(JGSDF=Japanese Army) on March 2018. 大家好！我名字叫xing2 bo2, 請叫我xing bo。我喜歡跟外國遊客分享這個很有意思的國家---日本國。我是個業餘的翻譯導遊, 不太專業, 在2018年3月我退休了日本陸上自衛隊（日本陸軍）。 I have spent most of my career as a Army NCO(Non-commissioned officer) . My job experiences are only in the military, but there are variety of specialties, so I didn't feel boredom. I lived in many places all over Japan, such as Hokkaido 10years, Chiba 15years, Okinawa 8years and more places. 我在軍隊當陸軍士官過了大部分的生活。我的工作經驗只在軍隊內，但是它有很多兵種和工作，所以我沒有膩了。我住過日本各地的很多地方，例如北海道１０年，千葉縣１５年，沖繩16年還有別的有些地方。 I am working for the half of month as a tour-conductor in Okinawa Japan. Rest of month, I live in Nagasaki Prefecture, and work as a Triple Lights interpreter tour guide. 我一邊在沖繩當旅遊服務員大概半個月，一邊在九州長崎當Triple Lights的翻譯導游工作剩餘的月。 I am registered as a Okinawa prefectural interpreter tour guide (English & Chinese), but don't have a whole Japan area certification. So I am brushing my skill up to get it. 我登記了沖繩縣的地域翻譯導遊（英／中文），可是沒有全國的。所以為了獲得全國導遊資格，我正在繼續學外語。 I speak English, Chinese (simplify & traditional) , no problem to guide you, not like a native though. 我會說英語和中文(簡／繁)，作為您的導游沒問題，沒有母語的人那麼好。

“Wonderful Tour of Fukuoka”

I was very happy to end up experiencing Fukuoka with Yoko on her day tour. She speaks great English, was extremely knowledgeable about Fukuoka / Japan, and always answered my questions with optimism. Prior to meeting up with her, she responded very fast to online questions and was punctual on the day of our tour. She is a very friendly person and came well prepared. I can recommend her very highly! Thank you for a great day, Yoko. Until we meet again.

Yoko T.

Thank you very much for participating in the Fukuoka City Historical Sites Tour. You showed great interest in many things, such as the history and culture of Japan and Fukuoka, the daily lives of people in Japan today, Japanese cuisine, and tourist spots in Kyushu. You listened to my explanations attentively and asked many thoughtful questions. I truly enjoyed guiding you. Even before the tour, you responded to my messages promptly, which made it easy to plan everything smoothly. Please come visit Kyushu and Fukuoka again. I look forward to guiding you once more.

“Patience, attention to detail and highly organised”

Masazumi prepared a very short-notice tour for me and included destinations and activities important to me. His time management was excellent. He was informative and answered all my questions. I really appreciated his generosity in going to the post office and the large cake market with me... neither probably his idea of a good time! Masa has a good sense of humor and a dog called 'Pudding! I heavily recommend his services.

Masazumi T.

Thank you so much for your nice review. I’m really glad to hear that you enjoyed my tour. I'm happy I could help you send souvenirs to your friends in New Zealand. I hope you have a wonderful time during your one and half month stay in Japan.

We had a great first day in Fukuoka with Kazue. She was right on time, very informative and flexible. We had a couple of us that have bad knees, hips etc and she went out of her way to make the tour as comfortable as possible with the least amount of stairs, and gave us great tips and suggestions for restaurants and sights in the area. She is very knowledgeable and sweet. Mahalo Kazue for the best first day ever in Fukuoka!

Kazue I.

Dear, Mrs.Kahala Thank you so much for your nice words. I am glad if I was able to help you even a little. You are all very friendly and it made me feel like I was also a part of your group! I really enjoyed being with you all. Thank you! Hope to see you again someday! Have a wonderful time in the rest of your stay! Warmest, Kazue
