The best Fukuoka private tours & experiences with locals

Japan’s high-octane “startup city” by the sea is one of the coolest places in the country. You could whip out your GPS and guidebook and move between must-see attractions like shrines and skyscrapers – or you could do something a little different. Our tours with locals in Fukuoka recreate the experience of seeing a new city with a friend who calls it home, giving you not only the top attractions but also the places only locals know and love. Discover the city’s creative coffee culture (ever heard of the “flannel drip” method?), colorful festivals, and a street food scene that’s out of this world. And you’ll do it all with a brand-new friend on our tours with locals in Fukuoka.

Isaac's walking tour of Roma and Condesa districts in Mexico City was excellent. It was exactly what I had in mind, a pleasant walk with extremely interesting explanations of the architecture and the history fo the districts and the city itself. Highly recommended!

Amirah

We had Shaan as our guide and we had the best time! My mother and I wanted to have a private tour of Gion to get the feel of the neighborhood we were staying in as well as learn more history about the area. Shaan did not disappoint! We had a great itinerary including visiting multiple areas where the Geiko/Maiko live and work (including seeing a few of them walking around!), we visited majestic temples, and we also got some great food and shopping recommendations from Shaan that we experienced in the days after our tour. Shaan was extremely knowledgeable about all things Kyoto! Experiencing Gion this way was the best decision!

Naomi

Nisa was an amazing guide, we learnt so much from our tour. She was so informative, funny and friendly, so easy to talk to. We even got to see a Geisha on the tour which is very rare. Couldn’t not recommend her highly enough.
