About Tour Guide Yuta T.
Hello! I’m Yuta from Fukuoka, Japan!
I was born and raised in Fukuoka, and through my travels abroad, I realized how special and beautiful Japan really is. That inspired me to share the charm of my country with visitors from all over the world.
I’m still learning English, but I will do my very best to make your trip enjoyable, comfortable, and full of great memories.
On my tours, I’d love to show you not only the famous tourist attractions, but also local restaurants and hidden spots that many tourists would never find on their own.
I enjoy meeting new people and learning about different cultures, so I look forward to sharing a wonderful experience with you and helping you discover the real Japan.

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!
