Passeios por Ohori-koen

This tour is the highlight of our trip to Fukuoka. It's truly enjoyable to walk and tour historical places with an English-speaking tour guide. The tour ended with a visit to the oldest sake factory. I highly recommend this relaxing and easy tour for couples.

I was deeply impressed by the professional performance of our tour guide, Kanesan Coco, during this one-day tour of Kyushu. The itinerary covered the Takachiho Railway, Takachiho Gorge, and Amano Iwato Shrine. Kanesan Coco introduced the characteristics of each attraction clearly and in depth, and supplemented them with local culture and mythological backgrounds, making the entire journey more informative and engaging. Her meticulousness in itinerary management, meeting reminders, and looking after the group members was also commendable. The arrangements were well-organized, ensuring everyone felt safe and at ease throughout the trip. Overall, this experience was smooth and enjoyable, and I fully felt her professionalism and passion for service. I sincerely recommend Kanesan Coco; she is a trustworthy and excellent tour guide.

Tour guide Kevin is very experienced and responsible. He goes above and beyond to satisfy the group members, is meticulous and reliable, making this a day tour absolutely worth joining!

Der Reiseleiter war freundlich und auf den Punkt gebracht. Die Burg Nijo war für mich überbewertet – sie hatte leere Räume im Inneren, was für mich keinen Sinn ergab. Kinkaku-ji ist ein Muss in Kyoto, die Gegend um Arashiyama und Fushimi Inari waren ebenfalls hervorragend. Meine Eltern gehen nicht viel, aber sie konnten dies bequem in der Zeit bewältigen, die wir an jedem Ort hatten. Wir sind nur zum Startpunkt für Fushimi Inari gegangen. Für Arashiyama nehmen Sie unbedingt den Bambusweg und betreten Sie dann den Tenryu-ji-Tempel durch den Hintereingang – das verkürzt den Fußweg und der Tempel hat einen wunderschönen Garten.

Our guide was amazing. She was knowledgeable and super sweet. There was just enough information and fun facts that she curated about each sumo wrestler. She highlighted some popular sumo wrestlers among viewers and reminded us of when they would be on stage. This has got to be one of the highlights of my trip. We got super lucky with the place and timing. My husband and I enjoyed every bit and learning about sumo wrestling. The meeting point may be a bit confusing, but we got there about 15 minutes early to leave wiggle room. ☺️

Masami meticulously introduced the characteristics and historical stories of each attraction, answering almost every question. Highly recommended to friends who are interested in the future.

Our tour guide's name is Yoko Tateno. If I could say one thing about her, it would be that she is an open, polite, and considerate individual. We truly enjoyed her company, and I gave her a 5 out of 5-star rating. Her English skills are competent. Here is my thorough observation: She always arrived 30 minutes in advance. We typically used the subway or buses to navigate the city, depending on your schedule constraints. Fares and day cards were provided. Ms. Tateno is well-versed in the history of Fukuoka. Please wear trainers or comfortable shoes. The highlight of the journey was entering Tochoji Temple, where she led us into a dark room for an out-of-this-world experience. I would not recommend it if you are claustrophobic. We were astounded by the elaborate sculpture design, created by artisans who took only four years to complete and were meticulous in their attention to detail. Then we walked across town to another temple to discuss the various religions that shape Japan's philosophy today. The Hakata Machiya Folk Museum has a brief film presentation about Fukuoka's famed festival. Next, we went to the old and new shopping district and had lunch with her. Afterward, we took the subway to Ohori Park and appreciated the seriousness of Ohori Park's man-made Japanese garden. The last stop was the Sake brewery, where we had the opportunity to sample a variety of sake. Drink plenty of water to flush the sake, or you'll become intoxicated. To summarize, our trip was fun, entertaining, and enjoyable. I truly admire Ms. Yoko Tateno's in-depth familiarity with Fukuoka. She deserves a 5-star review.

Kevin is the best guide! Super enthusiastic and accommodating, lovely and super funny! Also very sexy 😜This tour is super laid-back and all the destinations were carefully planned and thought of and not in a rush/cramped.
