What do I take away from the walk?

Practical know-how for the rest of your trip: how to find your way around the city, which yatai food stands are worth coming back to, and the local tips your host shares along the way.

Which places could the route include?

Sample stops are Hakata Station, Kushida Shrine, Ohori Park, and the Fukuoka Castle ruins, with Dazaifu Tenmangu as an option outside the center. Your host makes the final choice based on your form.

How does the personalization form work?

After booking, you receive a short online form about your interests, pace, and preferred meeting point. City Unscripted uses your answers to pick a suitable host, and that host then gets in touch to plan the route together.

What if the weather turns bad?

Rain does not stop the walk. Your host reworks the plan for the weather on the day, with indoor options in mind.

A Bite of the Big Apple! WTFuk?

I followed many of Luis recommendations and came away feeling that he understood exactly the types of experiences I was seeking. If you are good he will get you a Brooklyn Burger if you are missing the taste of home.

ARIF is a guide to recommend in Fukuoka!

Wonderful guide who gave us history and cultural information. ARIF even helped us accomplish tasks like going to a bank, that would have been far more difficult without him. His world vision also was important for perspective and context. Would definitely recommend him!
