“An excellent way to see Fukuoka's highlights”
Masazumi (Masa) arrived on time at Hakata Wharf. His nature was gentle and friendly and we both enjoyed our tour. We visited a shrine, a history museum, a temple and the large park with its Japanese garden. We finished the tour with a meal at a typical Japanese restaurant. The tour was unrushed and we would highly recommend Masa as a tour guide.
