Nagasaki, beautiful small town located at the west side of Kyushu island. Catholic churches, temples, shrines, history and the atomic bomb drop in World War II. This memorable town can be accessible from Fukuoka by a quick one day trip. Why not going? You may also like Japanese bullet train ride on the way.

Meeting Point
Your Hotel lobby, or JR Hakata Station
- I hope your hotel would locate near JR Hakata station so that we can reach the station quickly to get on the Nagasaki bound train. Basically, the express trains going to Nagasaki run twice an hour. Train does not wait for us even if miss the one. We have to be punctual when going to the station. Depending on the location of your hotel, meeting time may change.
Arriving at Nagasaki
After meeting at your hotel lobby, we move to JR Hakata station to take an express train. It would take about 1.5 hours to get to Nagasaki railway station.
We will purchase Nagasaki tram train (streetcar) one day ticket as most of the tourist spots can be accessible from tram stations.
Nagasaki hanging around
I plan to take you to several spots including a garden old catholic church, downtown of Nagasaki, and the atomic bomb museum and the peace Park. We will be visiting these spots effectively by using the tram trains. Somewhere along the way, we will also have a lunch break, and you may choose Nagasaki local foods. Around 3PM, we come back to Nagasaki station to go back Fukuoka.

Hi! My name is Yasuhiko, please call me "Yasu", meaning "hello" in Greek. After I worked in an electric company in Japan, I became a professional guide to introduce my town, my country.
After Covid-19, tourism is back! you may want to have more private experiences like no other people had before. Then, my home, Fukuoka, has a lot to show you around. So many nice places, cultures, and nice local people with delicious local foods.
I like sports, climbing, running etc. I also like to visit temples and shrines. I am also an active backpacker, (have been to 50+ countries mostly in Asia and Europe over 30 years) So, I suppose I know well about where you would like to visit. :) I have never lived outside of Japan, however, you may also feel better that my speaking English is not typical Japanese "flat" intonation.
Where you would like to go, I will be there with you! I am looking forward to inquiry.

“Polite, responsive and extremely well prepared. ”
We had a wonderful tour of the canals of Yanagawa city with Yasuhiko. What was the most remarkable aspect of this tour was his flexibility to meet our desire to spend an easygoing, close to nature day at the tail end of a long trip. He was extremely polite, knowledgeable, responsive and well prepared. We strongly recommend him to anyone considering a visit to Fukuoko.
Yasuhiko I.
