With your host as your GPS, translator, and restaurant reviewer, you’ll be experiencing the very best of Fukuoka’s intoxicating nightlife. In the colorful glow of the neon-lit Naka river, sample Fukuoka’s famous street food from the long line of yatai mobile carts, or head to Tenjin to explore where the wealthy unwind. Down a quick draft beer at your host’s favorite izakaya, check if Ōhori Park is hosting any cool outdoor events, or simply hop between all the tightly-packed bars, pubs, and clubs in streets that show no sign of tiring. In restaurant-lined Ropponmastsu, grab a vending machine ticket and cash it in for Fukuoka’s go-to late-night snack: rich, creamy, umami tonkotsu ramen. Now you’ll be going strong for a good few hours.

Taiyo was absolutely wonderful and flexible with all our needs. He was knowledgeable and knew the area well. Due to COVID, the regular restaurants on the tour were not open so he needed to find new places to go. It seemed as though he was scrambling last minute to find places so some pre-planning would have been appreciated. He could have checked restaurants ahead of time to find places that were open.

The trip was completely customisable and Eli (our guide) was amazing. She put together all the things that we wanted to do while explaining the Japanese culture and art forms. It was an enriching afternoon and we enjoyed visiting temples, shrines, besides trying our hand at doll making. We also found an amazing vegetarian place to have lunch. Thank you Eli for the great experience

Eli made the tour fun and personal giving multiple suggestions of her favorite places and showing us both the bright lights and hidden gems of Fukuoka. She made an in depth schedule and was able to change it on the fly depending on our interests. My wife and I laughed constantly throughout the tour with Eli which made the experience completely worth it. Felt like hanging with a friend.
