Fukushima Private Tour Guides

“Great (customized) version of this trip with Go”

Go was very friendly, went out of his way to fit in with our needs (tweaking the itinerary and even borrowing a bigger car), and was a mine of detailed information on the complexities of the Fukushima response after 2011 to Japanese politics, the local population decline, and the economy. A fascinating day with a particular highlight being the visit to the the The Great East Japan Earthquake and Nuclear Disaster Memorial Museum in Futaba. A unique (and completely safe) experience we'd strongly recommend.

Charles-san, Thank you for your review. I am relieved that you seem to be generally satisfied. I have learned a lot through conversations with your family. I had a very valuable and enjoyable time. Personally, I had a few things to reflect on this time. I would like to work hard and improve for a better tour in the future. Thank you. Go

“An Unforgettable Tour with Exceptional Guidance”

We recently had the pleasure of joining a customized tour arranged by Ms Nobuko, and we were very happy about it! The entire experience was thoughtfully planned from the very beginning: not only did she provide an engaging and informative experience, but also supported us with arranging taxis, luggage storage and train schedule. The historical knowledge we gained during the tour was exceptional. From learning about samurai history to the breathtaking snowy scenery at Ouchi-juku, every moment felt enriching. The balance between outdoor and indoor activities was perfect, especially given the cold weather. Painting lacquerware and creating colorful akabeko crafts were unique, hands-on experiences that left us with wonderful memories and souvenirs to cherish. Ms Nobuko’s warmth, professionalism and deep understanding of the region made the tour truly special. She was attentive to every detail and tailored the itinerary to suit our preferences, making us feel both comfortable and inspired throughout. If you’re looking for a guide who is not only knowledgeable but also incredibly kind and thoughtful, Ms Nobuko is the perfect choice. We wholeheartedly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to explore the history, beauty and culture of Fukushima Prefecture.

“Very instructive and enjoyable tour!”

Amazing tour with Nobuko! She has helped customize the tour based on my preferences and we have managed to cover a good deal of sites during the day. She is highly knowledgeable on the Samurai history of Aizu and she puts it within the larger picture of Japan back then. On the different sites we have visited, she has shared detailed information / stories that help see things from different perspectives. On top of that, I have really enjoyed the quizzes she has asked along the way. Highly recommend the tour with Nobuko!
