Had a wonderful tour through Fukuoka with Eli! She was very easy to talk to and I felt comfortable with her right away which was nice being that this was a solo tour. She planned a great itinerary and allowed me to decide where to go based on my preferences and even tried new things that she hadn’t experienced before with me! I’d love to book again when I return to Fukuoka. Thank you again, Eli!
