Explore Fukuoka with a Friendly Local Guide!
Hi, I’m Masa T. — a passionate and experienced local guide based in Fukuoka.
Over the past 6 years, I’ve had the pleasure of guiding more than 1,100 travelers from the U.S., Europe, Australia, and Asia as a volunteer guide. My goal is simple: to help you discover the best of Fukuoka through fun, personalized, and flexible tours.
I have created many tour courses based on my local knowledge and interests, and I’m also happy to offer customized tours tailored to your specific preferences and schedule.
I studied in the U.S. for 1 year and 8 months, and later worked as a manager at a major Japanese company, where I collaborated with engineers from various countries. I then served as a director of a group company for 7 years. These experiences have helped me connect easily with people from all over the world.
After exploring, I’d be happy to introduce you to some of the best local restaurants, where you can enjoy Sushi, Tempura, Sukiyaki, Ramen, Teppanyaki, and more.
Let’s make unforgettable memories together in Fukuoka!
Drawing on my background in international projects and leadership positions, I strive to provide tours that are both enjoyable and insightful for my guests."

“Best private tour guide in Fukuoka”
Masa-san is the perfect guide if you’re looking for a highly personalized, comprehensive, yet laid-back private tour of Fukuoka. He impressed us with his warm personality and deep knowledge of hidden but delicious food spots. With the variety of tours he offers, we’re already looking forward to booking him again on our next visit to the city.

“Outstanding Fukuoka Tour – Highly Recommended”
The Fukuoka City Tour on May 8 was truly wonderful. The guide was warm, knowledgeable, and attentive, and the itinerary perfectly balanced culture, history, and local flavor. We especially enjoyed Yusentei Garden, the ramen experience, and the visit to Tochoji Temple and Kushida Shrine. Everything was smooth and perfectly timed, with convenient pickup and drop-off at the hotel. We are very pleased and happily give the tour 5 out of 5.
