A private walking tour of Fukuoka with Radim! - We booked this private tour around Fukuoka with the chance to get a very good overview of the city. Radim, our guide, was an excellent and informed guide. For a bit more than three hours he provided us with detailed information about each Buddhist temple we visited and any Shinto Shrine. Equally about other parts of the city, Including the a visit to the terrace in the Hakata station where we could see the whole city. He was very kind and entertaining and told us about his plans to make Fukuoka more visible to Jason visitors. We wish him all the luck in that endeavour as it is true that Fukuoka is a very interesting city. He even showed us where to eat the most traditional and reasonably priced Ramen in the city! Thanks Radim and good luck!

Great way to explore the city - We visited Fukuoka for the very first time and booked a tour with Remakr Japan—it was honestly the highlight of our trip! As a couple traveling here with no idea where to start, this experience made everything so easy and enjoyable. We learned so much about the city’s history and culture, but what we loved most was the personal touch—it felt less like a tour and more like spending the day with a friend who really knows and loves Fukuoka.

Personal tour with passionate guide with less touristic options - We had asked Radim for a tour less touristic and instead to feel and see the local neighborhood. We got an excellent tour full of sights and tips for Fukuoka and the rest of our trip in Kyushu. If your are looking for a personal tour with a passionate guide than go on a tour with Radim.

Fantastic Day - We spent a fabulous day with Radim as our guide! He was funny, lively and knew a lot about Fukuoka even though he was a transplant. His English was excellent and the sites we toured with our party of 14 using public transportation gave us a very good understanding of the city.
Most importantly, Radim left enough time for our group to return in time for our departure to our next destination.
I highly recommend using him as a guide when you visit this City!
Radim, on behalf of our party, we thank you and wish you well!

Tour through Fukuoka - This was the perfect start to our tour of Japan. Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful on our tour throughout Fukuoka. He also gave us plenty of recommendations for our day and the rest of our trip. He helped us with our train cards and setting up our phones. He was also really good with our young son and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great day

Must visit Fukuoka. - We spent 2 days with Radim. He was wonderful. He was attentive, helpful and fun to be with. We did a day tour in Fukuoka and visited Nagasaki. We had so much fun. We love Fukuoka. The sights and food were incredible plus the shopping. It’s complete. The best part, it’s less crowded. Radim gave us excellent food recommendations. We wish we had more time to explore other nearby towns. We will definitely go back and contact him again to visit other places.

🗺️ Fukuoka Comes Alive with Radim’s Guided Tour - From the moment we met Radim, we knew we were in for a special experience. He’s the perfect blend of laid-back and incredibly knowledgeable—fluent in English, easy to understand, and always ready with fascinating facts.
Our tour began with a walk through downtown Fukuoka, where Radim pointed out cultural highlights and local quirks we would’ve completely missed on our own. But the real magic happened when he took us to Nanzoin Temple. Standing before the breathtaking Reclining Buddha was truly a moment of awe—and Radim’s insights into the site’s history and symbolism made it even more meaningful.
A standout moment was crossing a bridge where Radim showed us how the railings could be played like a xylophone—something we never would have noticed without him! It’s these small, joyful surprises that made the day feel personal and unforgettable.
If you’re visiting Fukuoka and want to see more than just the surface, book a tour with Radim. We can’t recommend him highly enough!
