Fukuoka Private Tours

“Amazing Introduction to Yatai and Fukuoka”

We came out of the tour not only well-fed after sampling some Fukuoka specialties, but also with a better understanding of local history and Japanese culture thanks to Morry, who was a perfect guide. He picked stalls that gave us a variety of options while he kept us thoroughly entertained with his conversation and a bit of impressive magic. The 2.5 hours flew by because it felt more like having a good extended meal with a friend than being taken on a tour. Thanks to Morry, we were able to enjoy conversations with other customers and communicate with the yatai owners. Morry made sure to provide us with interesting background information about yatai, specific dishes, the area, and Japanese culture in general, but always in the course of conversation rather than as a canned lecture. We thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of the tour and would welcome the chance to hang out with Morry again. Logistically, his communication was clear and consistent from the moment we booked the tour. We received messages about the proposed itinerary, meeting possibilities, directions, and even suggestions about other things we could do during our stay. The whole process was seamless and always personable. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

“Morey is a character”

I had a solo yatai evening tour with Morry in Fukuoka. We went to a great yatai in Tenjin, and I met Morry there, where he was waiting first-in-line to ensure we got seated straight away when it opened. In the 10 minutes we were waiting Morry showed me some card tricks - I *think* I figured out how he did one of them but not sure. He has very quick hands. I tried a number of dishes, all Morry’s recommendations, and they were delicious he nailed it. I told Morry that I had never had good Japanese ramen before (it all tastes rather bland to me back home in Australia), so after the yatai he took me to one of his favourite ramen shops in Nagahama where I had the first bowl of soup oupramen I ever enjoyed! In between eating we chatted about where each of us have travelled. Morry sure has led an interesting life. Highly recommended!

“A wonderful yatai experience.”

Kazue is a bubbly, entertaining and kind guide who brought me to two traditional style yatai stalls. I enjoyed eating the foods she recommended. I had a very good time . Kazue is also very helpful. She spoke to the front staff of my hotel to resolve the issue of air con.
