Went to this walking tour on 18 Nov. Met Naga-san at the designated meeting place in Hakata station west exit. I was surprised that the walking tour is very structured and well thought out by Naga-san. Every spot we went, he would have a relevant folder with all the information in English/Korean language. He speaks pretty good English and I had no problem in understanding his explanations. I enjoyed my tour and had gain many insights about the culture, traditions and history. Highly recommended to do this tour when you are in Hakata as he really takes you to lovely areas. My favourite is the Sumiyohsi Shrine and the Yanagibashi fish market. I tried some delicious Japanese deserts in a local fish market store and had the best azuki paste tasted. Although it's a pity that the market was almost closing time when I reached there, but I will come again next time with my family when we come to Fukuoka again. all in all, it's a value for money and highly recommended walking tour.
I highly recommend this itinerary. Mr. Nagato is super serious about introducing attractions and commentary to us. If you happen to be in Hakata for half a day and want to talk to Japanese, I really recommend the Hakata walking trip. Opportunity to talk with Japanese people I personally think that even if you do n’t speak Japanese, it is very suitable for this trip. Really recommend! Because I just lined up for the morning and afternoon trip, Mr. Yongzheng also took us to eat the delicious udon noodles at a cheap price. On this trip, you can experience the Japanese garden and tea ceremony. Although I only stay for a short time, I still have a little understanding of the spirit of Japanese tea art. At the well-known fishing market, take a look and you can also buy fresh catches. In addition, a shopping street was found across the street. The strawberries in a fruit and vegetable shop were really cheap! Friends who are interested can really try walking on the ground!
The tour guide Mr. Nagafuchi was really enthusiastic. Fortunately for the day, only Mr. and my two participants, who moderated our pace, chat easily and explained carefully. People who like to take a cultural walk and visit the local itinerary will like it. Tea lounge in Leshuiyuan tea room is very relaxing. Although the market is closing fast, seeing the common local food is very interesting for our tourists. It is good to chat with the boss through the guide and I like Liu Qiao very much. The joy of the last bread and fruit shop in the market. Because a question asked by the tour guide did not confirm on the spot, we actually wrote a reply in the evening after the event, which made us feel moved. It is a very comfortable and easy journey. I feel that the next time I arrange this journey, I can participate on the first day of arrival. I believe that I will have more different expectations and ways of playing in Fukuoka. Don't worry about language inconvenience, any way of writing, photos, English, etc. is very interesting communication! !!
The tour guide was very kind and gave a detailed introduction to the attractions. After the tour, he also shared a lot of information about surrounding attractions. Thank you very much
the tour is well organized. mr nagafuchi is very nice and kind. he is also knowledgeable about history & culture so you will learn a lot from the tour.
Thank you to the tour guide for your detailed explanation, which helped me better understand the background and history of Fugang. It is worth participating! At the end of the tour, there was a bus back to Hakata. I rushed to get on the bus and forgot to tip. I was really embarrassed😅
The tour guide explained a lot of history and culture, and I learned a lot! I would like to join this kind of hiking group next time.
Very good local humanities introduction, you can walk through the daily life of all local people to integrate into the lives of local people, and have a broader vision.
Nice relaxing tour but became warmer close to lunch time. Tour guides were very friendly and accommodating. Nice tour to do bec the guides would share part of history. Nice to walk when weather is cool.
It's a great experience to learn from the locals. The place that Nagafuchi took is impressive. By taking good care of
