Kumamoto Prefecture

Our experience with the Kumamoto Castle & Josaien Kimono and Yukata Experience was very enjoyable overall, with the Klook booking process being smooth and convenient, making the activity easy to access and manage. The pricing feels reasonable considering both the cultural experience and the beautiful historical surroundings included. The facilities were clean, organized, and tourist-friendly, with staff assisting properly during the kimono and yukata dressing process. Staff were polite, patient, and helpful, ensuring a comfortable experience throughout the activity. The highlight was walking around the Kumamoto Castle and Josaien area while wearing traditional Japanese attire, which created a very authentic and memorable atmosphere. The experience also offered great opportunities for photography and cultural immersion. Overall, it is a unique and worthwhile activity for travelers wanting to experience a traditional side of Japan.

Kumamoto Suizenji Kimono, a first-time experience. The owner and staff were very polite and courteous. In summer, they give out Kumamoto fans, and in winter, socks. They also provide a free photo and complimentary admission to Suizenji Park.

It was super fun ! the instructor was very nice and welcoming. The environment is quiet and relaxing. They also frame the artwork and lets you keep the pen. I also got a time lapse video and I really enjoyed inking.

At first, I was a bit nervous because I couldn't find any reviews or personal experiences online, but the Holiday platform created a group chat with me and the photographer so we could communicate in advance, which was very reassuring. The photographer I met was a fun and gentle woman! She was also very enthusiastic about introducing us to the history of Kumamoto Castle. Unfortunately, my English isn't very good and I only understood part of it, but communication during the photo shoot was completely fine. The turnaround time for receiving the photos was also super fast. This was a wonderful experience, and I'm so glad I got to meet her!

Klook har de billigste priser. Hvis du vil opleve Nordkyushus landskab, anbefaler jeg at tage JR. Jeg købte et tredages JR-pas og besøgte Kokura, Mojiko og Kumamoto. Jeg anbefaler at besøge Kokura Slot. Selvom det er et genopbygget slot, tilbyder det mange aktiviteter for besøgende, herunder gratis prøve af kimonoer til fotografering og bueskydning fra hesteryg – det er et besøg værd. Hvis du står af i Kokura, skal du prøve den historiske Tachikura kyllinge-udon på perronen ved Kitakyushu Station; den er billig og meget velsmagende 😋. Mojiko er en smuk havn med en europæisk atmosfære, hvor du kan udforske forskellige historiske bygninger og tage fantastiske billeder. Området er kendt for sin karry. Kumamoto Slot er et af Japans tre store slotte med flere hundrede års historie. Det er et restaureret slot med stor historisk værdi. Slottet er primært sort og ligner en samurai, hvilket giver det et imponerende udseende. Jeg anbefaler at tage sporvognen til Kumamoto Slot for at opleve den lokale livsstil og kultur.

Anbefaler et syvdages pas. Brugte det meget i Kyoto til Shinkansen-tog derogfra og tilbage til Kyoto, samt lokaltog, busser og en bådtur. Sæde reservation: Meget god og nem at bruge. Passets dækningsområde: Fantastisk dækning, kan bruges i Tokyo og Kyoto samt de omliggende områder. Pris: Prissætningen er fantastisk, hvis man udnytter den offentlige transport i Tokyo og Kyoto fuldt ud. Så tjek blot, om det kan betale sig for dine specifikke rejser.

Dette er første gang, vi udforsker Fukuoka, og vi har haft en fantastisk oplevelse med at besøge Mount Aso, Kusasenri og den smukke Takachiho-kløft. Vi vil også gerne takke vores meget erfarne rejseleder, Ada Wong, for at være så hjælpsom og professionel under hele dagsturen. Vi vil helt sikkert tjekke Klooks rejsetilbud ud på vores næste familieferie. Endnu en gang tak, Klook!!

Rejselederen, frk. Kong, var meget humoristisk og sjov og havde et stort kendskab til de lokale skikke og kulturer. Chaufføren var utrolig høflig og venlig og hilste på hver enkelt passager, hver gang vi stod af bussen! Efter jordskælvet i Kumamoto er alt nu vendt tilbage til det normale! Sightseeing og turisme er intet problem, og der er ikke mange turister, så det var meget behageligt at gå rundt ved seværdighederne. For rejsende, der rejser på egen hånd, er det en god mulighed at deltage i en dagstur for at besøge mange steder, der ellers er svære at komme til med offentlig transport! Rejseplanen var Aso Kusasenri -> Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu-helligdommen -> Takachiho-minitoget -> gåtur i Takachiho-kløften. Takachiho-minitoget kræver en ekstra betaling på 2300 yen pr. person! I slutningen af oktober er vejret stadig ret varmt, så alt er frodigt og grønt, men det var skønt at se det lokale landskab! Jeg holdt mest af Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu-helligdommen, som havde en helt fantastisk atmosfære!
