Experience the best of
Fukuoka with Withlocals

"Jessica was an absolutely amazing guide around all of the best spots to eat and drink around Fukuoka. Every spot we went felt authentic and didn't feel touristy at all. We tried local favorites, stopping in both restaurants and food stalls along the river. It was an absolutely unforgettable evening and I would highly recommend touring with Jessica if you stop in Fukuoka. "

"Not only was Jessica knowledgeable about Japan and been living in Fukuoka for over 21 years from her native country of Bolivia. She provided so much unique information about the culture of Japan, the history of the community and things that people want by on a daily basis intake for granted. She provided one of the best Tour experiences that I’ve had in many many years."

"We had such a great morning in Fukuoka with Jessica! She was so friendly and easy to talk to, and really made the city come alive with her stories and local insights."

"Jessica took Yvonne and I on a local bar/izakaya/yakitori tour. Because it was raining steadily, we focused on indoor establishments within a short walking distance. Jessica is very familiar with local specialties and introduced us unique items that we were unlikely to discover on our own. She also tailored the menu to our tastes, accomodating my desire to try different types of sake and shochu, as well as Yvonne's desire for various types of seafood and preparations. The establishments themselves catered primarily to local residents, and we did not envounter other tourists. Jessica is fun, a good conversationalist, very knowledgeable about anime and local culture in general, with excellent people skills."

"The two of us had a super morning with Josh, exploring the coast and countryside nearby Fukuoka. He loves this area and so did we. After two weeks travelling around Shikoku and Kyushu it was amazing, really cool beaches/coast/cafes on the Itoshima peninsula. Josh can take all the photos for you too, he’s a pro! "

"We had a wonderful experience with Joshua. He took us to unique restaurants that we could never have found on our own. He was fun and an informative. I highly recommend him."

"Had a great morning with Jessica who provided a participant-observer account of life in Fukuoka and life in contemporary Japan. Jessica was quick to determine what kind of stuff we wanted to see, do and know in the time we had and within minutes it felt like a long time friend was showing us around-all the while maintaining a professional and respectful and good humoured manner. Definitely the best way to see a new city-on foot and with someone like Jessica. "
