Super Great time with Bruce, he ensured the evening stayed joyful, fun and engaging! It was not awkward and he was insightful, friendly and made us feel so welcomed! His warm and knowledgable approach made the food tour amazing for my family and I. Take note, I had 3 elderly and 5 adults! He managed it all with grace and poise and I thank you again for an evening to remember, SEE YOU AGAIN BRUCE! thank you

If you’re interested in checking out Yatai food stalls in Fukuoka, this is the way to do it! It’s also a great first-night adventure in the city because Bruce is extremely knowledgeable and shares generously. My partner and I spent 4+ hours with Bruce, and we’d do it again in a heartbeat. We walked all over the city and stopped in three different Yatai stalls, eating tapas/pintxos style. Every bite of food and each drink we tried was delicious. It was a great intro to Fukuoka/Hakata, and a perfect way to visit the Yatai stalls, which could be intimidating to navigate for the first time on your own.

This was a fun, accessible way to experience yatai in Fukuoka. Reasons to book this tour (in no particular order): 1. It takes the guess work out of choosing where and what to eat. Bruce takes you to the places he personally eats at, and orders the best items at each stall. 2. Variety. We must have sampled ten different dishes and everything was delicious. (You will leave full!) 3. Experiencing new foods with other travelers who enjoy food as much as you do is a lovely way to spend an evening. 4. Bruce is an attentive host, eager to share what Fukuoka's yatai scene has to offer. In short, great host, great food, great experience. Highly recommend!

The Yatai tour with Bruce was amazing! We saw how a Yatai build-up works and experienced a big variety of amazing food at two stalls - Bruce explained everything concerning the different dishes we tried and was even so generous to give us some restauratant advice for our next stop in Japan! Thank you so much, the evening made a lasting impression and Bruce‘s enthusiasm for Yatais is definitely contagious!

Bruce was very awesome and accommodating as I booked the wrong date but he introduced us to a great bar and Yatai run by a brother and sister that could accommodate 5 of us. Highly recommend!

We had the most enjoyable evening with Bruce! Due to the heavy rain, Bruce had already rearranged plans to visit some izakayas. These were truly hidden gems! We had authentic local food with great conversation! Thank you, Bruce, for such a great and unique experience!

Bruce is a great guide! We enjoyed not only the excellent choice of Yatai Food but also the conversation with such a knowledgeable person, living in Japan for so long.

Hakata yatais are WHERE IT'S AT and there isn't a better person to show you the best places to try out than Bruce. I came to know about Bruce through a Youtube video he did for Japan byFood, so I was fairly sure coming into the tour that we'd be well taken care of. And Bruce did not disappoint! The thing about yatais is that their operational hours and days can be very unpredictable, so you need a tour guide who really knows the yatai scene and is not wedded to following a specific plan or script. Our tour was set for a Sunday night, so when we met Bruce, he explained that, although he had a plan in mind, there was a good chance we'd need to improvise along the way because it was a Sunday night. He proved to be right, as we needed to pivot right from the start because the madam running the first yatai he wanted to introduce to us did not set up for the evening. We ended up hitting a total four yatais, which included Ultra C (great oden), "Riverside Restaurant" (cozy izakaya serving some righteous ramen), Tomochan (grilled skewer goodness), and finally Bar Ebi-chan (literally an awesome bar sitting in the middle of the street run by a very professional couple). We chatted, ate, drank and laughed throughout the evening. Before we knew it, we'd been touring for almost 4 hours. Time flew by so quickly. A sign of a great tour and a great tour guide. We'll see you again, Bruce!
