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 guided 1,420 people with 17 groups totaly in 2017and 1,600 people in 1018.
Through long work for travel business, I was assigned to excursions of all over Japan, such as Sapporo, Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Nagoya, Hiroshima, Fukuoka, Okinawa and others, which gave me intimate knowledge about most places in the country.
In addition, I am adept in business fields and knowledgeable about historical sites, traditional culture and modern subcultures in Japan.
My wife is a disabled person with an intractable disease who needs 24-hour nursing care.
Our daughter takes care of my wife while I am guiding.
Even if my schedule is free, I may not be able to take the tour on days when my daughter cannot cooperate.
Please ask me first. If it is possible.

“Autumn leaves viewing at Kiyomizu-dera Temple Honbo Garden”
Morry gave us a perfect day in Fukuoka. He was punctual, professional, and so much fun. He managed a smooth tour for all eight of us. We saw everything at a relaxed pace and were even treated to his clever magic tricks. The entire experience was smooth, fun, and utterly memorable. Highly recommend!

Thank you for leaving a wonderful review. The weather was nice that day, and we were able to enjoy the autumn leaves at the temple. We look forward to seeing you again if the opportunity arises. Morry

“Authentic Yatai Experience with a Fantastic Guide”
I joined the Yatai stall tour on my own and had such a memorable evening thanks to Morry. He knows Fukuoka inside and out, and it really showed in the places he chose — each stop had its own character, great food, and stories behind it. Even as a solo traveler I felt completely comfortable and included, and I enjoyed hearing his perspectives on the city’s history and daily life. If you want a relaxed, authentic introduction to Fukuoka’s nightlife and local culture, this tour is an excellent choice.

“A day in Fukuoka ”
Morry made our day in Fukuoka very special, he was very puntual at cruise terminal, picked us up and took us arround, we started the day very early and visited all tourist attractions with no rush, he even entertained us with his magic treats, he was wonderful!! We were a group of 8 and he helped us renting a van, and that helped us moving efficiently.

Fukuoka Yatai stall hopping tour
Are you keen to experience something very unique and traditional in Fukuoka? If yes, try delicious local food in Yatai stalls! Yatai, open air food stands are probably the city’s best known symbol and a “must try” during your stay! Traditionally sitting shoulder to shoulder at the counter, these mobile Yatai kitchens have usually 8 to 10 seats and provide you with a cozy unique atmosphere. An experience you will never find anywhere else!
