“Amazing Cultural Experience in Fukuoka with Miho!”
Miho is an excellent guide who is very knowledgeable about Fukuoka’s culture and traditions, and talking with her in English was easy and comfortable. As part of the tour, she took me to a Japanese Tea Ceremony experience, and her own background in tea ceremony added so much depth to everything we learned. We also went for some incredible ramen, visited Fukuoka’s fashion district where she pointed out some great clothing shops and second hand stores, and later I even got to make my own Japanese pottery which was such a fun hands-on experience. Miho made each part of the day feel special and meaningful. If you are interested in exploring Fukuoka’s cultural side, you have to book a tour with Miho!!!

“Very knowledgeable and sympathetic guide”
To meet with Miho was a unique experience. Already the greeting and her description of the day's tour (we did some adjustments) made me feel so welcome and relaxed. - We walked, discussed a lot and I got many insides of the city, the culture and the specialities of Fukuoka. - It was a memorable, beautiful day tour and I feel enriched by what I experienced and learned with and by Miho. Thank you so much, you made my day!
