Things to do in Kinrin Lake

This day trip was really fun, and the entire itinerary was very well arranged! 😊 The first stop was Umi Jigoku (Sea Hell). The scenery was truly stunning, and seeing it in person was even more breathtaking than in the photos. Everywhere was great for taking pictures, and I easily got so many gorgeous shots! The second stop was the zoo, which turned out to be quite a pleasant surprise! Besides lions, tigers, giraffes, and camels, there were quite a few animals that are usually rarely seen. Some of them were even new to me, which felt very fresh and exciting. The animals were also very cute, and I had a great time watching them! Finally, we went to Yufuin. It is a really lively place with many unique little shops and all kinds of snacks. You can walk and eat along the way while slowly soaking in the atmosphere of a small Japanese town—so much fun! Additionally, I really have to give a special shout-out to our tour guide, Jimmy Ryu-san! He was enthusiastic, friendly, and attentive. He explained the whole itinerary very clearly, reminding us in advance about meeting times, boarding locations, and where the restrooms were, which gave us great peace of mind. Along the way, he also shared interesting stories about life in Japan, making it feel like chatting with a friend so we were never bored! All in all, this was truly a very pleasant trip with great sights, excellent arrangements, and a very dedicated tour guide. If I have the chance again next time, I will definitely join! Highly recommended with five stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had a wonderful experience on our day tour with Nicole as our tour guide! She was very friendly, knowledgeable and approachable throughout the trip. She shared lots of interesting information about the places we visited and was always happy to answer our questions.

This was a tour I took with my parents. I was worried the schedule might be a bit too tight, but we were able to take our time exploring at a relaxed pace, and my parents had no trouble at all. In particular, our guide, Lee Hyang-yong, was truly exceptionally kind and gave fantastic explanations, making the tour even more satisfying. Our driver was also skilled, so we were able to travel without any motion sickness. Thanks to everyone, we were able to create wonderful memories. Highly recommended!

Traveling with the tour was very convenient. The guide took good care of us and provided great recommendations, allowing us to visit a variety of places in just one day. For those who prefer not to rent a car and drive, having 2 hours at the Takachiho Gorge, including the round-trip walk, was more than enough time. In the afternoon, we visited Mt. Aso. Even though the crater was closed, we were able to see the views up close at two different spots. Kusasenri offered beautiful scenery, though 1 hour might be a bit tight for sightseeing, having a meal, and shopping for souvenirs. Overall, it was a very worthwhile and convenient experience with everything covered, including a stop at a service area along the way.

We had an amazing experience with our tour guide Lisa! She brought us to Dazaifu Shrine, Beppu Hell Hot Springs and Yufuin Village, making the entire journey enjoyable and memorable. Lisa was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and approachable. She shared interesting insights about each destination and made sure we had a wonderful experience throughout the trip. What impressed us even more was how she went the extra mile by recommending other places to visit and restaurants to try during our remaining days in Fukuoka. Highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a thoughtful tour guide in Fukuoka. Thank you, Lisa, for making our trip so memorable!

The tour did not feel rushed. Just the right pace for people who like to visit multiple spots. Our tour guide, Ms. Nicole, was also very warm and approachable. She even sent us files of recommended stores to visit and food to try both in Hakata and within the area where we had our tour. She also speaks good english. I am a solo traveler but I did not feel left out on this tour. Ms. Nicole even offered to take my photos but I'm shy so I refused. 😆 Overall, this tour is highly recommended. Arigato gozaimasu! 🇯🇵

The pacing of this tour is just right for me. Ample time per destination. I was initially worried we would be rushed at Yufuin Village but for me I was able to really roam around. Our tourguide is Nicole Yang and she was fluent in both English & Mandarin. Easy to understand and very helpful + friendly.

It was a truly impressive trip. I was the only English speaker, but the guide. Zhu Zhu, took good care of me, ensuring I fully understood everything about the tour. The experience far exceeded my expectations.

Our itinerary for this trip was: starting from Tenjin city center ➡️ Itoshima Hana Shio Pudding ➡️ Meoto Iwa (Wedded Rocks) at Futamigaura ➡️ Tsukamoto Fish Market ➡️ Miyajidake Shrine ➡️ Munakata Shrine. The driver was very thoughtful! His service attitude was incredibly friendly! He even recommended a delicious seafood restaurant, which my family also thoroughly enjoyed 👍🏽 The car was clean and tidy, and the entire journey went smoothly and perfectly 💯
