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!
Important
I will be happy to guide you neighboring prefectures if you pay me transportation fee.

“Unbelievable experience with a fantastic guide! ”
Kazue worked incredibly hard to arrange the perfect tour of Fukuoka for us with amazing communication before we arrived. She was on time to meet us at the port and she was able to use her car to take us to all the sights effectively. We saw so much and had the most amazing day! Kimono dress up was so much fun and Kazue was incredibly helpful in the store. We had the BEST tempura lunch. We 100% recommend her! She was knowledgeable, helpful and very, very kind. We hope to return and see her again in the future.
