What Is a Private Cruise Port Tour in Fukuoka Like? A Licensed Guide's Report

The guests were cruise ship passengers visiting from Europe. This time, the meeting point that the guests had specified was at the same port but not at the usual Hakata Port location, so it took some time to confirm the spot, which caused some concern; however, we met on time and it turned out to be an enjoyable tour. The guests were interested in the Daimyo district and enjoyed shopping at popular brand shops there. Due to the shopping, the tour ended up exceeding six hours, but I did not charge any additional fee.
