Det var meget fornøjeligt at rejse med Kaku som guide. Han sørgede for, at vi blev godt passet på, delte gode tips med os om, hvad vi skulle spise/lave ved hvert stop, og delte også personlige tips om, hvad vi skulle spise i Fukuoka. Her er også et godt tip til Fukuoka Tower; der er et gratis mini-foto/deltagerbevis, som er værd at få, hvis du tager op i tårnet, det slutter kl. 18.00.

Dette var første gang, vi bookede en professionel fotograferingsoplevelse. Vi var rigtig glade under fotograferingen på 1 time. Fotografen er meget sød og giver os gode råd til, hvordan vi skal posere. Da vi fik billederne, var de rigtig dejlige. Det værdsætter vi i den grad.

Magnificent tour, the waterfall was stunning, and the experience at the Buddhist temple was unique. The final destination on the beach was breathtaking. The driver was very skilled on the mountain roads, and our guide Nanami was very professional and friendly.

Dagen før turen sender vi en e-mail med information om mødestedet. Vi mødtes tidligt om morgenen ved udgang 2 fra Nihonbashi, hvor rejselederen Momo ventede på turisterne med et skilt. Før vi ankom til seværdighederne, gav rejselederen en flersproget introduktion. Ved Amanohashidate (svævebane) var vandet omkring sandbanken meget klart, roligt og smukt at gå langs. Ine no Funaya (bådtur med fodring af måger og ørne) var en særlig oplevelse, der passede godt til både voksne og børn, men desværre kunne bådhusene kun ses på afstand fra båden. I Miyama-cho, i landsbyen med stråtagshusene, var der ikke meget andet end den lokale atmosfære at nyde. Denne tur havde en længere køretid, så programmet var lidt stramt, men der var mulighed for at hvile undervejs. At arrangere en dagstur med bus under et frit ophold i Osaka var virkelig en klog beslutning!

I haven't shown them Anpanman yet, but I'm so glad the little one likes cats haha. They did the event where if you say "BOO!" to the staff, you get a sticker, so it was fun walking around saying "Boo! Boo!"~~ I think kids up to preschool age will really love it~

Amazing, I fell asleep. The staff is so kind, I'm shocked! I'll come back here as many times as I can 😍 I highly recommend it!

Selvom man skulle trække lod to uger i forvejen for at reservere, hvilket fik en til at tro, at her ville være proppet med mennesker, opdagede vi ved ankomsten, at menneskemængden var utroligt godt kontrolleret. Der var ingen trængsel eller køer, og oplevelsen var yderst behagelig. Selvom Fukuoka Tower ikke er den højeste bygning, vi har besteget, er udsigten fra dette glastårn absolut lige så imponerende som fra ethvert andet kendt vartegn. Solen skinnede på havet i det fjerne, bygningerne, viadukterne, og tættere på var der grønne træer. Sammen med de smukke cumulonimbusskyer var hele Fukuokas bybillede en fryd for øjet og utroligt forfriskende. Når vi besøger en ny by, er det en tradition for mig og min søn at bestige den højeste bygning. Denne gang, da jeg så ham spændt gå rundt foran de store panoramavinduer i Fukuoka Tower, følte jeg, at denne vane havde tilføjet endnu et smukt minde til vores fælles oplevelser. Hvis du planlægger en tur til Fukuoka, kan jeg varmt anbefale at inkludere Fukuoka Tower i din rejseplan. Husk at reservere online i god tid (det er et lodtrækningssystem). En god udsigt er værd at vente på og endnu mere værd at opleve personligt.

I wasn’t sure what to expect, but teamLab Forest exceeded my expectations. The interactive displays made me feel like I was part of the artwork, and every area had its own unique charm. The visual effects were incredible, and it was easy to lose track of time while exploring. It’s a great mix of entertainment, art, and technology. One of the most memorable attractions I visited in Fukuoka!

During my 3-night, 4-day trip to Fukuoka with my mom, I was looking for activities on our third day, which was entirely dedicated to Tenjin. I found a yukata/kimono experience and decided to sign up! I initially considered a kimono, but since it was June 1st, they switched to yukatas. It's definitely hot in Japan, so I think the slightly thinner yukata was a better choice. I booked the first slot at 9 AM and arrived a little early, about five minutes before, but they said the doors wouldn't open until exactly 9 AM, haha. So, while waiting, I saw a sign on the door advising to use the restroom beforehand, which I did. We then entered a little after 9 AM when they opened. I chose the Premium Deluxe Plan, and for the yukata, I picked from the Premium and 'One Star' options. Surprisingly, the 'One Star' ones seemed a bit prettier, so my mom and I each chose one from there. For hair, as per blog reviews, 'Two Star' options were available. I had already looked at some styles, so I went with 'Two Star' option #1. Since we were among the first three groups, we quickly put on the white inner garment, and then they did our hair. It was a braided style pulled to the side, and they asked which side I preferred, so I asked for the left. My hair turned out so incredibly beautiful that I was extremely satisfied. After the hair was done, we could choose hair ornaments. There were some free, round, candy-like ones, and then some prettier flower ones that cost an additional 500 yen. I just went with the free round one, haha. Still, I was satisfied! They also fitted the yukata well to my height, and for bags, the free options weren't particularly pretty, just plain, so I didn't pay extra. For shoes, I would have worn wooden clogs if they had been a bit softer, but they were completely hard wood, so we just wore our sneakers and walked around, making sure our feet weren't visible in photos. Also, it was so hot that we were going to use our own parasols, but then we thought, 'Since we're doing this, let's use theirs!' so we rented one for 500 yen, and I'm satisfied with it, haha. It matched the outfit so well and looked great in photos! We started at 9 AM, and after everything, we finished around 10 AM. We didn't plan on wearing it for too long, so we returned it before 12 PM. The photos turned out so pretty, and it was such a unique experience! I highly recommend it! 👍🏻
