Yohei was prompt with answering my email messages. Communication was very good. He showcased a variety of places. The pretty sakura at Ohori Park, a museum, provided some history, took us to a beautiful Japanese garden, and ended with an interesting shrine. He took pictures of us and pointed out good photo stops. There were 4 of us on the tour and he evenly conversed with us all.Yohei was prompt with answering my email messages.

We had the honour of being the first tour of Yohei. It was a pleasant trip! We talked about the park and the castle, but also about life in Japan and the differences in our cultures. It was nice to talk and walk with a local. Just what we needed to make the trip to Fukuoka more memorable!We had the honour of being the first tour of Yohei.
