Fukuoka: Private Eat Like a Local Food Tour

2. Fukuoka: Private Eat Like a Local Food Tour

Within 24 hours after booking, receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. You'll be paired with a foodie local host who will be happy to give you suggestions for the best spots (and food!) in the city, according to your taste and requests. During the tour, sample 6-8 tastings of various Fukuoka's specialites, and wash it down with 2 drinks that have been carefully selected for you by your host. With so much to taste, your only limitation is your appetite. Try not to overdo it on too many chargrilled chicken yakitori – or pork belly, a Fukuoka specialty – at a riverside yatai food stall, and weave through the part of Nagahamasengyo Fish Market for the city’s favorite delicacy: uni (sea urchin). Inhale the rich aroma of your flannel drip coffee (locals say it’s extra smooth) at a trendy cafe, or slurp up umami noodles at your host’s best tonkotsu ramen spot. Motsunabe, a hearty stew made from offal, is a winter must-have (or, you could try its more docile sister, chicken mizutaki). Alternatively, allow your local host to take you to the nearest yatai - unique to Fukuoka. These tiny, movable street food carts open into little pop-up restaurants and are known to serve the best street eats around. Of course, Hakata ramen (silky pork bone broth and thin noodles) is a must to try. Important: As this is a private and personalised experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences.

Fukuoka: 8-Hour Private Walking Tour with Local Guide

3. Fukuoka: 8-Hour Private Walking Tour with Local Guide

Experience Fukuoka on this city walking tour with a local host. After booking, you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host who will suggest an itinerary to help you discover Fukuoka your way. From stately Tōchō-ji and its impressive great Buddha statue to 1200-year-old Kushida, see the temples and shrines that put the city on the map – and the sights you couldn’t even find on a map. Stroll serenely through a traditional Japanese garden, or explore the city’s up-and-coming otaku scene at Marble Choco, a store dedicated to impossibly intricate dollhouse furniture. Another option is to stop by historic sites like the Sumiyoshi-jinja Shrine, which is dedicated to protecting sailors, and the Shōfuku-ji Temple, known for being the oldest Zen temple in Japan. The choice is all yours. At dusk, as reflected city lights turn Naka River a thousand shades of neon, you might sample street food from the yatai (mobile stalls) popping up along Nakasu Island, or grab a vending machine ticket and cash it in for “umami” personified: Fukuoka’s famous tonkotsu ramen. Important: As this is a private and personalised experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences.
