Privat vandretur i Fukuoka: Hjertet og tradisjonen i Hakata

Denne turen er høydepunktet på turen vår til Fukuoka. Det er virkelig hyggelig å gå og besøke historiske steder med en engelsktalende guide. Turen ble avsluttet med et besøk på den eldste sakefabrikken. Anbefaler denne avslappende og enkle turen på det sterkeste for par.

Vår turguide heter Yoko Tateno. Hvis det var én ting jeg kunne si om henne, var det at hun var en åpen, høflig og hensynsfull person. Vi likte virkelig selskapet hennes, og jeg ga henne en 5 av 5 stjerner. Hennes engelskkunnskaper er gode. Her er mine grundige observasjoner. Hun var alltid 30 minutter i forkant. Vi bruker vanligvis T-bane eller buss for å komme oss rundt i byen, avhengig av timeplanen din. Billett og dagskort er inkludert. Fru Tateno er godt kjent med Fukuokas historie. Vennligst bruk joggesko eller komfortable sko. Høydepunktet på turen var å gå inn i Tochoji-tempelets mørke rom, hvor hun ledet oss, og å ha en utenomjordisk opplevelse. Jeg vil ikke anbefale det hvis du er klaustrofobisk. Vi ble forbløffet over det forseggjorte skulpturdesignet, skapt av håndverkere som brukte bare fire år på å fullføre det, og som var omhyggelige i sin oppmerksomhet på detaljer. Deretter gikk vi tvers over byen til et annet tempel for å diskutere de ulike religionene som former Japans filosofi i dag. Hakata Machiya Folk Museum har en kort filmpresentasjon av Fukuokas berømte festival. Deretter dro vi til det gamle og nye shoppingområdet og spiste lunsj med henne. Så tok vi T-banen til en annen destinasjon, Ohori Park, og satte pris på alvoret i Ohori Parks menneskeskapte japanske hage. Siste stopp var sakebryggeriet, hvor vi fikk muligheten til å smake på en rekke sake. Drikk rikelig med vann for å skylle ut saken, ellers blir du beruset. For å oppsummere var turen vår morsom, underholdende og hyggelig. Jeg beundrer virkelig fru Yoko Tatenos dype kjennskap til Fukuoka. Hun fortjener en 5-stjerners anmeldelse.

My boyfriend and I experienced a remarkable day exploring Hakata and Fukuoka, greatly enhanced by Yoko's incredible warmth, generosity, and the essence of Japanese hospitality. The tour offered a perfect introduction to the region, which was invaluable given our limited time in Fukuoka. Yoko also guided us to Kitsutei for lunch, a hidden gem we would have never found on our own. The ease of communication with the tour company and Yoko meeting us at our hotel in the morning added to the convenience. I wholeheartedly endorse this tour and Yoko's exceptional guidance.

We had Tateno Yoko as our guide for the 1 day Hakata Tour on 27 Feb ’24. Yoko-san had prepared notes and photos on lunch options - we selected Ramen eventually and had a good lunch at Tenjin (we should have gotten bigger bowls!)

The tour involved walking, using public transport (subway) and we clocked perhaps close to 20K steps at the end of the 7.5hrs tour! 

Places covered include Jotenji Temple > Tochoji Temple > Kushida Shrine > Hakatamachiya Furusatokan > Kawabata Shopping Arcade > Ramen lunch at Tenjin > scenic & peaceful Ohori Park with yummy matcha & red bean dessert at Ohori Terrace > Japanese garden > Fukuoka Castle ruins (we skipped the Ishikura Sake Brewery in the planned itinerary as we were not keen for sake). 
 This is a private tour (need min. 1 person) using public transport on Fukuoka City subway line. I will suggest that perhaps Designer Inc (Omakase Tour) could consider purchasing 1-day subway pass for tourists instead of having the guide queue up at each station to purchase ticket? 

We appreciate Yoko-san’s patience and accommodating us for tea-break, allowing us to return to Kawabata Shopping Arcade near end of tour to purchase souvenirs & tea. she also recommended juicy strawberries to buy and took nice photos for us! Our trip to Fukuoka was made more memorable with Yoko-san.

we Highly recommend first time travellers to Fukuoka to consider signing up for this 1 day tour to learn more about Fukuoka and Hakata!

it was our first time in fukuoka... and we had ZERO knowledge how to get around, so we booked a tour on our first day to familiarize ourselves. we got MORE than what we expected, and we absolutely LOVE our tour guide Miyuki Yoshida-san, Yuki for short. Aside from the tour, She helped us also plan and prepare for the rest of our 5 day event, over and above what we expected. Yuki, you are a gem and a blessing! the tour was lovely, but our guide Yuki was lovelier. :)

연락이 잘 안되는 크루즈여행중 후쿠오카기창지투어로 신체가 불편해 단독투어로 신청햇는데 차분히 터미널에서 기다려줘서 반갑게 맞이해 서로 일정을 조율하면서 투어햇습니다 차분히 걸어가면서 신사와 절. 박물관 , 하타카 유래등 구석구석 자세히 설명해 줄려고 노력하는 모습이 좋아습니다. 맛있는 튀김도 먹고. 쇼핑도 아주 잘햇습니다. 매우 친절하십니다. 추천합니다

Our tour guide, Miyuki Yoshida is professional and very knowledgeable. The tour was very well planned. We learned about the Yamasaka Festival and had the best sushi lunch prepared by the chef in front of us. Our tour was capped by the sake tasting at the only Sake Brewery in Fukuoka. We appreciate all the little tidbits of information that made our tour very personal. Thank you Miyuki!

Great day with Kenny (Kinuyo Koikawa). She was very knowledgeable about the sights. Greatful for her and the company's flexibility. We had an unplanned trip to see the Reclined Buddha in lieu of a couple of original stops. Unplanned always the best!

very nice tour if you want to see some of the highlights of Fukuoka at an easy pace. Yoko, our guide, was very knowledgeable and gave a wonderful tour. Lunch is based on your taste. highly recommend.

We had so much fun during our tour. We visited alot of places even though it was raining. Our guide, Yoko, was very informative, helpful and very patient. Thank you so much, Yoko!
