Japan's Dazaifu,Nanzoin and Mountaintop Full Day Private Tour





Description
In Fukuoka, where locals may not be familiar with English, a translator is essential. As your guide, I am a dedicated local YouTuber, focused on capturing the latest events and tasting the newest and most delicious restaurants in Fukuoka. The tours I provide not only ensure punctual and precise arrival at your destinations but also allow visitors to experience the most genuine and considerate service that Japan has to offer. With flexible chauffeur services, adjustments can be made in real-time based on the preferences of the visitors. For instance, during holidays, I can take guests to special locations such as Christmas markets, festivals, and more.

Itinerary
In Kyushu, Japan, one of the most renowned shrines is the Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine. It's a prominent destination for students seeking divine assistance for academic success. Consequently, you'll find numerous high school students visiting the shrine to pray for their studies. During our guided tour in Dazaifu, I'll share insights into the shrine's various elements and background stories. I'll delve into the narrative of Sugawara no Michizane, the deity associated with academic achievement, and explain why locals touch the ox-shaped decorations. If you're interested, you can even request to rent a traditional Japanese kimono from a local shop through our guide. The cost for this would depend on the prevailing rates at the rental stores. Feel free to ask any questions or express your preferences during our tour. We're here to make your experience in Dazaifu memorable and enriching!
Situated in the central part of Kyushu, this gem may be a bit off the beaten path for non-self-driving tourists. However, it's well worth the visit! Here, at the foothills of Mt. Tenpai, natural hot springs offer a panoramic view of Dazaifu and Mt. Hōman. Beyond a relaxing soak, you can indulge in a rejuvenating massage or spa treatment. For those seeking a more private experience, family baths can be reserved in advance. In this haven of Tenpai, you can relish a delightful buffet for both lunch and dinner. The buffet is reasonably priced, offering over 50 dishes, including a variety of Japanese cuisine with different cooking styles. It's undoubtedly a fantastic dining option with great value for money. As your guide, I can assist in making reservations for the buffet, ensuring you get to savor the best of what Tenpai has to offer. Don't miss out on this culinary and relaxation haven tucked away in the heart of Kyushu!

This was the best day in Fukuoka! Our guide Kong was perfect for the job. He was kind, willing and professional. We amended the plans a bit and he gladly obliged. I can’t imagine a better way to see this area. The highlight of my day was the local onsen he took us to. It was a true cultural immersion. Please don’t miss this opportunity to experience Japan in a local and organic way.
This tour was average. Our driver Leo was very friendly and very helpful but he was not really a tour guide. He was more of a driver. He did not know a lot of history about the places we visited because he only moved to Fukuoka a couple of years ago and is not from Japan.
