Great! - There is so much to love about Japan. We decided to get a local English speaking tour guide to give us better insights about this beautiful country with fantastic people. We were lucky to get Sasuke who accomodated with our requests and made sure we were able to explore parts of Fukuoka based on our interests. She also shared about the Japanese way of life which was fascinating. For the tour, went to watch Sumo wrestlers practice at one of the temples and visited Uminonkamichi via ferry. Sasuke also taught us how to travel using bus because obviously we have no clue on how to use them. Highly recommended for those that need a crash course on how to move around Japan using their public transportation system, understand Japanese way of life and have an expert to get you to anywhere you want to go! Thanks Sasuke!

Ms. Sasuke is exceptional - Ms. Sasuke is exceptional. She speaks very well in English. I felt like she was a mother to me during the tour and she’s very knowledgeable about it. She taught me what to do in a temple, gave me some treats, and very informative from beginning to end (even with transportations). I actually didn’t felt like I was in a tour, more of bonding with a friend or a mother. I also lost my phone but was able to find it back thanks to her. She even made sure that I rode the right train going back to the airport. I will definitely have her as my tour guide if I’ll come back. Very well recommended.. 100% or more than that if there’s any. Thank you so much Ms. Sasuke for the tour, it was an unforgettable one☺️

The perfect guide - Our guide, Hiro Kariya, was beyond excellent. Her deep knowledge of the history and cultural context of Hakata is enhanced by her love of the city. A rare treat. (Thank you!)
