I am a National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter. Born in Sasebo Nagasaki Prefecture, I live in Fukuoka city now.
I cultivated the spirit of hospitality during my career at hotels in Asian countries, including Malaysia, Maldives, and Thailand, and at a hotel in Australia. After returning to Japan, I engaged in inbound tourism introducing great sites, Japanese culture, and Japanese food.
I confidently show around historical sites and urbanized areas and introduce delicious food in Fukuoka and Kyushu. I guide you to beautiful places according to your plans. I like traveling at home and abroad, watching movies, sports, and comedies. I also love music and often go to live concerts. Therefore, I can share a wide range of topics.
I am looking forward to seeing you and will help you make memories.

“Private Half day Fukuoka Historical and Cultural Tour and Full day Yanagawa River Cruise + Dazaifu Tenmangu”
A very pleasant, friendly and knowledgeable guide, Ms Yoko prepared each day's itinerary very well and in detail, highlighting special points of interest to our private group of four. She was punctual on arrival and made all arrangements, including transport and bookings meticulously. She also made good recommendations of restaurants for lunch. Despite our tour finishing about 2 hours late, she was extremely patient and accommodative. We thoroughly enjoyed our tours with Ms Yoko T as our guide. CH Koh, Singapore

“Excellent Experience with Yoko T.”
We contacted Yoko early in our planning process and she was quick to respond and help us plan our day in Fukuoka. She was so helpful and thorough in her responses that we were confident that we would have a wonderful day. She was waiting for us at disembarkation and shared so much about the city as well as what we were seeing and the history involved. She arranged an amazing lunch and, as a bonus, helped us find an item we really wanted. We highly recommend Yoko T.

Thank you very much for participating in the Fukuoka History and Nature Tour. You were very interested in the history and culture of Fukuoka and Dazaifu, as well as Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine and Sugawara no Michizane. I really enjoyed showing them around. I was really happy to see you happy to find your favorite products on the approach to Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine and at commercial facilities. I also enjoyed our various small talks very much. It was a valuable experience for me. Thank you very much. Sincerely, Yoko T.
