Latest reviews from our guests

    The trip was completely customisable and Eli (our guide) was amazing. She put together all the things that we wanted to do while explaining the Japanese culture and art forms. It was an enriching afternoon and we enjoyed visiting temples, shrines, besides trying our hand at doll making. We also found an amazing vegetarian place to have lunch. Thank you Eli for the great experience

    Eli was awesome. She helped us understand Japanese culture and practices and let us enjoy the day at our pace and in the manner in which we wanted. She also helped us find good vegetarian food

    Eli made the tour fun and personal giving multiple suggestions of her favorite places and showing us both the bright lights and hidden gems of Fukuoka. She made an in depth schedule and was able to change it on the fly depending on our interests. My wife and I laughed constantly throughout the tour with Eli which made the experience completely worth it. Felt like hanging with a friend.
