How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
You could explore the backstreets of Tenjin, where the city’s up-and-coming otaku (super-fan) culture is most colorful. Flip through manga at Animate Fukuoka, shop for merch at the Pokémon Center, or scope out the cosplay scene at Gee! Store - your kids might not have experienced a Japanese sub-culture like this before! At Canal City Hakata entertainment complex, you could join other families rushing between shops, arcades, cinemas, and restaurants to make a beeline for Ichiran Ramen – the perfect place to slurp up a bowl of impossibly tasty noodles. Or if the outdoors is more your scene, head further afield to Uminonakamichi Seaside Park for a quick cycle, a bento picnic in the flower fields, and a trip to the amusement park.

Yu was great and showed me restaurants that I never would've known about without him. I'm going back to two of them everyday for the rest of the holiday now. Yu was great to talk to and hang out with. Had a fantastic time

Sumire had a lot of interesting stories to tell not just about Fukuoka city & the places we went to, but also about herself. It was really nice getting to know her as an individual & we had good conversation over the course of the 3 hours we spent together. She was really genuine & sincere in getting to know me & sharing her recommendations around the city.

This was an excellent experience. I had the great honor of being guided by Bruce who has been living in Fukuoka for more than 20 years and has made a significant impact on the modern Yatai food scene. He was very professional and fun. He explained and showed me the true essence of Fukuoka which helped me further understand its local culture. I am a big history and culture person, so I had an absolutely stellar time. Highly recommend this tour and please ask for Bruce if you are interested in the Yatai!
