Gosh - such a great time! It was just like we were in a byFood video. She took us through Harajuku explaining the sites, eats, and giving off those special Shizuka vibes the whole time! She was a spectacular host. Our group was small, so easy to make quick (drinking) friends. Food was fantastic, and the non-food activities were a blast. 10/10 would do again! :-)

Teruyuki was an exceptional guide and a very good ambassador to the Ayabe city. Not only did he take us to the washi paper workshop and mochi making activity, but he also showed us so much like the temple and de rose garden. A truly wonderful day!

Bruce was an outstanding food tour guide in Fukuoka! His passion for the city and it's food scene was clear from the start. He took us to a local yatai that he's been going to for decades that had a super friendly staff and great bites! The highlight was the ramen shop he introduced us to — it was hands down the best ramen we've ever had! Bruce shared interesting insights about the food, the culture, and the local specialties, making the experience even more enjoyable. He was friendly, informative, and made sure we had a great time. It felt like grabbing dinner with a friend who was showing you around. If you’re in Fukuoka and want to explore its food, Bruce is the guide to choose! Highly recommended!
