Fantastic experience. Both guides were highly qualified and extremely knowledgeable on all things Japan. They brought us to locations that would not have been easy to find on our own. We had a very pleasant experience and a great conversation enjoying wonderful dining and drinking options.

Our time with Bruce was one of the highlights of Fukuoka, and helped us fall in love with the city! Bruce has serious Anthony Bourdain vibes. We were joined by guides Tony and Toki, and together had a fantastic evening of food, history, conversation, and basking in Bruce’s clear love for the city and its people. I’m vegetarian, my spouce is not, and at each stop Bruce made sure we were both happy and taken care of. Mochi kinchaku oden, freshly stir fried vegetables, yakisoba, so many options!! Our tour was a Sunday evening, so certain stalls were closed and our plans flexed and flowed beautifully throughout the evening. It led us to a couple of unplanned yatai that were so delicious, we used the skills Bruce taught us to go back again and again on other nights. Toki even taught us the local phase for delicious, “ばりうま!” which thrilled everyone we used it on. The food was ridiculously good, and all the stalls we visited were filled with locals. Afterwards we went to Bruce’s favorite most scenic 7-Eleven in the city for the best ice cream bars to round out a phenomenal evening. We’ll treasure our memories of Fukuoka.

This tour was the highlight of our time in Kyoto! Akari was a great and knowledgeable guide and the maiko, Mi-chan, was quite friendly and a great performer. She was also a good sport, answering all 1,000 of our questions. The food was also delicious. 10/10, would definitely recommend this experience!

This was a very good tour to understand the Gion district and the Gei-ko or Geisha community. Our guide brought us around various points of interest and explained the relevance of each one as well as providing a valuable insight into the history and purpose of the Geiko. She also guided us through the dinner and understanding of the two dances performed by the Maiko (trainee Gei-ko). What was special was the opportunity to ask the Maiko questions and hear her answers. Our guide did an excellent job of interpretation for us to make this happen. It was really valuable to meet the Maiko as a person and hear about her motivation and what is important for her. A very enjoyable and educational evening.

Bruce was an exceptional tour guide—easy going, knowledgeable, and deeply connected to the heart of Fukuoka’s yatai culture. His rapport with the yatai operators was immediately evident; it felt like we were being welcomed not just by vendors, but by friends. Some of the regulars greeted him with genuine joy, a testament to the relationships he’s built up at these establishments. Fellow travelers were impressed by his effortless Japanese, which comes as no surprise given his 40 years of living in Fukuoka. With Bruce leading the way, the experience felt less like a tour and more like an insider’s night out in the city, experiencing the original and less touristy yatai scene as well as some of the super popular spots. Just be warned, (4) yatai stalls is a lot of food!
