Product Description

Explore the vibrant city of Fukuoka through the eyes of a knowledgeable local on this fully customized half-day walking tour. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a returning traveler, your guide will tailor the itinerary based on your unique interests—be it temples, history, food, fashion, or contemporary culture.

Tour Overview

This is not your typical sightseeing tour. It’s an intimate, custom-crafted city experience based on what you want to see, taste, and discover. Let your local host take you to Fukuoka’s famous attractions, quiet neighborhoods, and local favorites that only insiders know.

From visiting historic landmarks like Kushida Shrine, to relaxing in serene parks, tasting the city’s iconic tonkotsu ramen, or snapping Instagram-worthy views from Fukuoka Tower, this experience is yours to design.

Why This Tour Stands Out

• Fully Customizable Itinerary
  Choose up to 3 spots to explore or let your guide make suggestions based on your travel style and interests. Flexibility is at the heart of this tour.
• Insider Access
  Discover hidden gems and get honest local tips on restaurants, cafes, shopping, and activities. Perfect for those who want a deeper cultural connection.
• Local Food Tasting Options
  Sample from Fukuoka’s famous yatai street food stalls, enjoy mentaiko-based dishes, or dive into the city’s well-known ramen scene.
• Trendy & Traditional
  Whether you want to sip on artisan coffee in Daimyo’s hip cafés or experience spiritual calm at ancient temples, your guide will balance the old and the new.
• Expert Hosts
  All guides are friendly, experienced, and fluent in English. Some are multilingual and all are passionate about sharing their city.

Sample Locations (Choose 2–3)

• Kushida Shrine – A historic Shinto shrine known for its connection to the Hakata Gion Yamakasa festival.
• Fukuoka Tower – Take in sweeping views of the city and ocean from Japan’s tallest seaside observation tower.
• Ohori Park Japanese Garden – A peaceful stroll among koi ponds, tea houses, and traditional landscaping.
• Canal City Hakata – A vibrant shopping and entertainment complex with fountains and light shows.
• Daimyo District – Popular for fashion boutiques, galleries, and cafes with serious coffee culture.
• Nakasu Yatai Stalls – Classic open-air food stalls offering local specialties and warm hospitality.

Your guide will help with timing, walking routes, and balancing attractions so your experience is smooth and fulfilling.

Guest Reviews

“A tour that felt like exploring with a friend.”
Eli was warm, informative, and flexible. She crafted the perfect itinerary, and it truly felt like discovering the city alongside a local friend. Highly recommended!

“Bruce took us to places we’d never find on our own.”
He knew hidden alleys, historic ruins, and the best spots to eat. Very chill, knowledgeable, and fun to talk with. A great intro to Fukuoka.

“More than just sightseeing.”
From panoramic views at a castle ruin to slurping mentaiko pasta, this tour covered so much more than we expected. Ideal for travelers who want an authentic taste of local life.
