Hi, My name is Yutaro, I was born and raised in Japan. I have worked as a Japanese-English translator for about two and a half years and as a business translator (mainly from English to Japanese) for about one and a half years. I have experience as a volunteer tour guide in Tokyo. I mainly guided Shibuya, Omote-Sando, Harajuku, Takeshita Street, and Meiji-Jingu areas for exchange students from all over the world. I can't wait to introduce you to everything that Fukuoka has to offer.

My reviews

    The experience Yu provided felt like catching up with an old friend in a new city rather than being taken around on a tour. This was excellent. The experience was a very warm welcoming to a wonderful city.

    The tour with Yutaro was exceptional and provided my wife and I with a lasting impression of this beautiful city. Yu's passion and knowledge of his home town enhanced our time together as he shared his experiences visiting the local temples as a child. He also provided valuable recommendations of local restaurants that were high in taste and vibe but off the typical tourist circuit. We appreciated Yu's personal touch and have a much greater appreciation for Fukuoka than if we had tried to navigate this great city on our own. Many thanks Yu!

    Yu was an exceptional tour guide during our visit to Fukuoka, effortlessly blending his deep local knowledge with a personal touch that made us feel like lifelong friends. As a native, he took us to hidden gems only a local would know, giving us a unique perspective of the city that went far beyond typical tourist spots. His insight into Fukuoka’s history and culture was both fascinating and detailed information that would have been impossible to uncover without his intimate connection to the area. With his warm personality and incredible expertise, Yu truly made this one of the best tour experiences we've ever had.

    Our guide Mai was very accommodating. Not only did she come directly to our cruise port to meet us, she was very open to adjusting our itinerary due to unpleasant weather. We were able to see and do many of the things we wanted and still manage to stay relatively dry through a very wet day.
