Hi there! I'm Chris, your friendly host here in Fukuoka. What I love most about this city is how it perfectly blends urban vibrancy with natural beauty. One moment, you can be exploring bustling streets and the next, you’re hiking a serene trail or relaxing on a beach. Fukuoka’s local cuisine is a true delight, with incredibly fresh ingredients and unique Kyushu flavors that you won't find anywhere else. I’m passionate about history and enjoy uncovering the hidden stories behind local sites, especially the shrines and places others often miss. Walking through these areas feels like stepping back in time. I also love discovering and dining at restaurants that are favorites among locals, offering an authentic taste of Fukuoka. Whether you’re a foodie, history buff, or nature lover, I’m excited to share the charm of Fukuoka with you. See you soon!
We had a cruise port stop in Fukuoka and we hired Chris to show us around town for a few hours. He met us at the port and took us to Five different destinations we wanted to see. He will customize base on timeline and your desired wish list. We even got to pop into a 7-Eleven very quickly so we could try one of their Eggie sandwiches. :) Chris teaches English at the local university so it was nice to be able to communicate so clearly We were done on time and he assisted us with the directions back to the ship, definitely better than a ship tour!
