About Tour Guide Kazue I.
Hi! I am Kazue. I am from Fukuoka and live in the central city.
I spent almost 20 years traveling around the world as a cabin attendant. Meeting different people, different cultures and eating local food were best things in my career.
This experience definitely widened my perspective and will help me in some way when I work as a guide.
Since I spent half my life outside of Japan, I noticed our culture and traditions are very unique and became more interested in historical sites in Japan.
For my personal life, I am a mom of twins. It is still a hard work but I am enjoying a lot with them. We take them around Kyushu whenever possible for their fun and experience.
We all love traveling after all.
I am looking forward to showing you around our hometown soon!

“Great Day in Hakata and Fukuoka”
Kazue provided us with a great tour of Hakata and Fukuoka. She is from Fukuoka and is personable and very knowledgeable about her city. She took the time to take us to stores to look for omiyage that we were trying to find. The tour included interesting temples and shrines of the area and Kazue provided historical information that we would not otherwise know. I would recommend her highly.
