“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!

Trek to a Secret Vantage Point (Moji, Fukuoka Pref.)
Will visit a very panoramic viewing spot at the north edge of Kyushu island. This is not known for foreign tourists at all, but just 30 minutes walk to a hill, about 360m altitude, amazing view with a comfortable wind. You will find yourself that it is really worth taking a walk. From the hill, you will be able to see my small home town and how north edge of Kyushu land finishes.
