About Tour Guide Masatoshi M.
I had worked for the Japan's biggest travel agency JTB (Japan Travel Bureau) for 35 years as a tour escort for Japanese.
I visited 68 countries and of course all over Japan as well. So I’m familiar with almost all of the tourist attractions in Japan.
More over I’m also a professional magician now. I’m a member magician of The Magic Castle in Hollywood in US. That's why I made a decision to become an English tour guide.
I acquired a tour guide license issued by the Japanese government with a lot of hard work in 2016 and I started from the following year.
I work as an English guide approximately 130 days a year.
My wife is physically disabled, and I usually care for her.
Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, I receive home care and bathing services, so I am unable to go out during the day as I have to prepare for and clean up afterwards.
I am available to guide on Sundays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. I can take up to four people sightseeing in my private car.
I am available at any time during evening tours, such as YATAI tours.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Please ask me first. If it is possible.

“Great entertainer”
Morry is a very entertaining tour guide, and he will pepper your tour with amazing up close magic tricks! My son who likes magic and is usually skeptical of most magic shows is honestly baffled by quite a few of his tricks despite having the chance to observe up close. Our tour was on a rainy day but Morry came prepared with wet weather gear for us. It was a good day out.

I'm so glad you enjoyed Dazaifu and Yanagawa despite the rainy weather. I have over 400 magic tricks; I'll show you even more next time we have the opportunity. Please come to Fukuoka again. See you again soon

“Incredible Sights, Guide & Experience!!”
Morry was an absolutely fantastic guide, 10/10! Morry is incredibly knowledgeable on the history of Japan and was able to answer our questions every step of the way which enhanced the culture and overall experience. Not only is he smart, he is an amazing magician! We had a long day in the car, and Morry was wooing us with his tricks and literally making things disappear in thin air - incredible!!! He made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable ride and he worked with me to design a custom itinerary to visit the shrines and gorge. The sights were gorgeous and Morry was capturing photos of us along the way. He snapped photos when we were in the moment and sent them to us after which was a sweet surprise. I have already recommended him to others wanting the most out of their trip - Morry is the best man for the job!!! p.s. Morry is also a foodie and recommended some amazing food stall options for dinner and lunch, which were all AMAZING!!! This guy does it all!
Masatoshi M.
Thank you for your wonderful review. I'm so glad you both enjoyed your trip to Takatachiho and Kamishikimi Kumanoza Shrine.. I'm especially happy that you enjoyed the local food at YATAI (Food stall), which I recommended. If you ever have the opportunity to come to Fukuoka again, I'd be happy to show you around. See you soon!

Visit to NANZOIN Temple by car
The Shakyamuni Nirvana Statue at Nanzoin Temple. Completed in 1995, it measures 41 meters in length, 11 meters in height, and weighs 300 tons—making it one of the largest bronze reclining Buddha statues in the world. It also became well known when the temple’s chief priest won the top prize and bonus prizes in the Jumbo Lottery, with many saying it might have been a blessing from the statue. Surrounded by lush greenery, the serene expression of the Buddha watches over visitors in quiet peace.
