Why this scores 62

Fukuoka Special Japanese Tea Ceremony with Maiko: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Fukuoka.
How much does Fukuoka Special Japanese Tea Ceremony with Maiko cost?
+
Prices start at $2700 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Fukuoka usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Fukuoka Special Japanese Tea Ceremony with Maiko take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Fukuoka is not rushed.
Is Fukuoka Special Japanese Tea Ceremony with Maiko worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Fukuoka, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Fukuoka Special Japanese Tea Ceremony with Maiko?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Fukuoka Special Japanese Tea Ceremony with Maiko suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 1-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Fukuoka Special Japanese Tea Ceremony with Maiko?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Fukuoka can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Fukuoka and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Fukuoka Special Japanese Tea Ceremony with Maiko start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Fukuoka within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Fukuoka?
+
On Outty we rank every Fukuoka experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Day trip from central Fukuoka.Rental cycle in Shikanoshima island, Fukuoka Private Tour with a Local: Highlights & Hidden Gems, In Fukuoka! Guide to an izakaya only 100% locals know/Bar Hopping. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Fukuoka?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Fukuoka?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
