The travel distance of the car is long, so the number of sites is not so many, but you can enjoy the change of the scenery while you are traveling. You can watch not only samurai’s castle but also samurai’s weapons and samurai’s armor. As for Unzen volcano, it is a must-see place because there are less active volcanoes in the Europe and the US. You can experience the mysteries of the earth.

About Tour Guide Katsu N.

Thank you for taking the time to read my greeting! My name is Katsuhisa, but please feel free to call me Katsu. :)

My philosophy is rooted in my catchphrase: "Quick and flexible hospitality."

Before becoming a guide, I worked as a salesperson, introducing customers to beautiful furniture across various Japanese cities. That experience taught me how to present products and ideas in a way that is both engaging and memorable—a skill I now bring to my role as a guide.

However, I am more than just a guide; I am your concierge. Whether it's tailoring an itinerary to your specific interests or preparing seamless experiences with meticulous attention to detail, my goal is to provide you with a journey that exceeds expectations.

I am deeply passionate about sharing the unique charm of Nagasaki, Fukuoka, and Japan as a whole, while honoring the culture and places that shaped who I am today.

Let me craft an experience that is both enlightening and truly unforgettable.

Thank you, and I look forward to welcoming you! :)

Reviews

Nice day outside of Fukuoka

We had a nice day with Katsu. He was very detail oriented. We told him we wanted to see the pokemon manhole covers and he took us to all three right at the beginning. Then we enjoyed the shrine and historical sights. He arranged for us a very good lunch where we enjoyed steak and eel. Katsu created a new itinerary for us which exceeded our expectations!

Dear Julie, Rodney, and Lily, -Thank you for leaving me a review even though you were tired after a long trip. I'm glad that you were satisfied. After doing some research, I found that there are still more Pokemon manholes in the area where I can make a tour, so I look forward to seeing you again. -Katsuhisa

Excellent Service By Mr Katsu N.

My mother and I are very happy with the service that Mr Katsu has provided. It was a very pleasant journey in Nagasaki. He is attentive, patient and helpful. He has even asked what songs that we would like to listen so he can download before the trip for us. Though certain places are not accessable for seniors, he will still bring us there to take a picture. We would like to have him if we were to visit Nagasaki again. Thank you.

A wonderful day in Nagasaki

Katsu gave us a wonderful and personal day in Nagasaki. He planned everything as I had asked and was always looking out for our comfort. We saw so much and had an amazing lunch in a tiny restaurant we would never have found on our own. Katsu is very caring and knowledgeable and I would highly recommend touring with him.
