Reviews
“Memorable Tour”
We booked the Autumn Leaves Tour because we wanted to see good autumn leaves for our trip to Fukuoka but got overwhelmed with the choice of where to visit. There are autumn leaves everywhere during fall and we didn't know which locations in Fukuoka City center was nice, and if we needed to go further out to Saga or Kitakyushu. Going with Masa-san was a good choice for us. The locations he picked were very memorable spots with stunning foliage -- and also locations we initially dismissed when we started researching for autumn leaves. We were pleasantly surprised by the value for money of the restaurant he chose. In our country the price is easily double or more for the teishoku he chose at the restaurant he booked for us, and the meal was delicious. As a person he is earnest and has an easygoing manner that made us feel comfortable around him. He also has the vigor to guide us through the entire walking tour. It is clear that he enjoys meeting people and showing them hidden gems around Fukuoka City. (30 November 2024)
