Hey there, folks! I'm Luis, your friendly neighborhood host in Fukuoka, the city that stole my heart and ran away with it! You know what I love most about this place? Oh, everything! From the easy mid-tempo vibe that keeps me grooving to the walkable streets that save my feet from becoming pancakes! Fukuoka's friendly nature is like that hilarious buddy who's always up for a good time! Festivals? Modern or traditional, count me in! I'm like a festival magnet; you can't keep me away! I'm your go-to guy for Fukuoka's nightlife, and I'll take you to all the hidden gems, the back streets with surprises waiting around every corner. You name it, I know it! Local foods are my obsession. I've got a love affair with every delicious dish this city has to offer. So, join me as we explore the vibrant and diverse city together!

    We had a free evening in Fukuoka and Luis Matos was able to make the most of it for us. He had true local knowledge and escorted us around to wonderful places that were not typical tourist spots. Very responsive and fun. Really a special evening enjoying the sights, culture, and food of Fukuoka. Thank you Luis and Posty!
