Over the past 6 years, I’ve had the pleasure of guiding more than 1,100 travelers from the U.S., Europe, Australia, and Asia as a volunteer guide. My goal is simple: to help you discover the best of Fukuoka through fun, personalized, and flexible tours.
I have created many tour courses based on my local knowledge and interests, and I’m also happy to offer customized tours tailored to your specific preferences and schedule.

I then served as a director of a group company for 7 years. These experiences have helped me connect easily with people from all over the world.
After exploring, I’d be happy to introduce you to some of the best local restaurants, where you can enjoy Sushi, Tempura, Sukiyaki, Ramen, Teppanyaki, and more.

“A good overview of central Fukuoka”
A delightful morning with Masazumi who was easy to talk to ( excellent English) and informative and enthusiastic about his home town. It was good to use the Metro and we had delicious lunch at a place only a local would find.
