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.

Sumire did a great job of working with us in very hot weather to make sure we had a good time, saw a number of sites but also stayed cool. And my kids really loved the shopping! Thanks!

We are so pleased that Sumire was our guide. We cannot thank her enough. As a family with young adult children, she tailor made all of the stopping points. We chose to have a personal guide on our first day in Japan to also help us settle in and understand about the culture and how to enjoy the most of the country. Sumire exceed our every expectation. Our 19 year old son was talking today about how she showed us the ritual at the shrine and how beautiful it was. Thank you Sumire for making it all so special.
