Κιτακιούσου: Σπήλαιο Ακιγιόσι, Ναός Μοτονόσουμι Ινάρι & Γέφυρα Τσουνόσιμα, ημερήσια εκδρομή (αναχώρηση από Φουκουόκα)

this is definitely one of our favourite cave experiences as we are double happy to have our second time tour trip with our tour guide , Thomas . he is very kind , informative and helpful as usual to provide us in depth knowledge about the cave and the rest of our activity as well. the cave is definitely worth visiting even though it took us about an hour and half to finish the whole cave walk. the lime stone and the natural transformation is definitely not to be missed as Mother Nature indeed are very beautiful to fondly admired. definitely would like to come by the cave again for a second visit

동생이랑 후쿠오카 여행 가서 새로운곳으로 가보고 싶어서 찾아보다가 예약했어요. 중국회사 상품이라 중국인과 외국인 그리고 한국인은 저희뿐이었지만 영어로 친절하게 설명해주셔서 무리없이 다녔습니다. 슈호도동굴은 꼭 한번 가보라고 추천하고 싶어요. 자연동굴이라 정말 멋지더라고요. 다만, 저희팀은 엘리베이터 타고 동굴 밖 전망대로 안보고 넘어오시던데, 2번째 모토노스미 이나리신사는 사원에 못들어가게 해놔서 바다만 보고 왔어요. 개인적인 생각으로는 동굴에서 시간을 더 보내면서 전망대까지 보고 왔으면 더 알찼을것 같아요. 이동시간 대비 신사는 별로였어요. 동굴은 다음에 가족들과 또 가고파요. 가이드님 친절하시고, 덕분에 즐겁게 여행할 수 있었어요.

非常棒的一日游！从博多站出来就能看到集合地点，工作人员会主动和你确认目的地。车上座椅舒服，司机开车安全平稳，导游Lisa非常亲切热情，一直主动帮忙拍照，对景点的介绍也很专业，并且精通三国语言，让我们的旅途非常轻松愉快。去的几个景点都非常漂亮，更幸运的是当天上午看起来还是多云，下午竟然放晴了。最不可思议的是，单程到熊本的新干线不到的价格就能轻松游玩交通不便的几个景区，性价比拉满了。最后时间安排也比较合理，游玩景点有充足的时间欣赏风景和拍照。

Best day tour ever. Our tour guide Sun was so friendly and easy to talk. He explained everything about the places we visited even recommended other places around Fukuoka. He is such a fun and cheerful person. I’m so happy we met him. The places we visited were beautiful. Motonosumi Shrine was my dream to see it, and it didn’t disappoint. The other places were also amazing especially the Tsunoshima bridge. I highly recommend this day tour. It was perfectly organized.

The guide was helpful, cheerful and informative. Her explanation in both English and Mandarin were very clear. She even recommended us food to try at Hakata. The 92 red torri gates were beautiful. The bridge that runs above the sea was beautiful but too bad that we could only enjoy the view on the bus.

Το σπήλαιο ήταν πραγματικά εντυπωσιακό – οι βραχώδεις σχηματισμοί είναι όλοι μοναδικοί και μπορείτε να ακούσετε μικρές περιγραφές για ορισμένες περιοχές με μηχανήματα που διαθέτουν στο σπήλαιο. Ακολουθήσαμε την κατηφορική διαδρομή, οπότε όταν βγαίνετε μπορείτε να φάτε κάτι και να δείτε τα μικροαντικείμενα που πωλούν εκεί. Η θέα του ωκεανού στο ιερό Motonosumi Inari ήταν πραγματικά εντυπωσιακή. Δυστυχώς πήγα το Σαββατοκύριακο, οπότε δεν μπορέσαμε να περάσουμε. Η Tsunoshima είναι πανέμορφη – πρέπει πραγματικά να τη δείτε με τα μάτια σας, καθώς το χρώμα είναι αρκετά δύσκολο να αποτυπωθεί στην κάμερα. Αυτό το ταξίδι καλύπτει μια πολύ μεγάλη περιοχή, οπότε υπάρχει πολύς χρόνος μεταφοράς ενδιάμεσα, αλλά ο οδηγός έκανε καλή δουλειά μεταφέροντάς μας στα μέρη γρήγορα και ομαλά. Θα ήταν πραγματικά δύσκολο να φτάσω σε αυτές τις τοποθεσίες μόνος μου. Ο ξεναγός μας, ο Cico, ήταν πολύ ενημερωμένος και βοήθησε τους ανθρώπους να βγάλουν φωτογραφίες. Υπέροχη εμπειρία!

the cave is something that you definitely have to experience in person for yourself! impressive sight. also, do try the burdock noodles right outside the cave! it was the best thing i ate on my trip. the view of the sea was more stunning than the torii gates imo, and the bridge wasnt too special. my guide was helpful and offered to help take photos, and seemed like a nice person, which i really do appreciate. however, it was hard to find the tour group at the gathering point and you have to ask around to find your guide. it also felt like the guide was overwhelmed by the large tour group size, especially when guide’s chinese is noticeably better than english. i could understand both languages, so it was clear when some info wasnt mentioned in english, and i felt bad for the english-only speakers on the tour.

As a solo traveller I am happy to join this tour as I was able to go to places that are difficult to reach if you don’t have a car. The van is spacious, tour guide speaks English and Chinese and follows time strictly. Our guide Ella explains each places that we went through. She also serves as photographer and making sure that all participants are accounted for.

Akiyoshidō Cave was fascinating, especially as it was my kids’ first cave visit — the formations inside are impressive. It drizzled at Motonosumi Inari Shrine, but the coastal views were still lovely. We were lucky to catch sunshine at Tsunoshima Bridge, with magnificent views and jade-coloured waters. The guide was friendly and made the day enjoyable. Do remember to check the weather forecast, as it can really affect the experience.

It’s not a common route, so there were less people on our tour. Perfect for people who want to get away from the over-crowded tourist spots near fukuoka (takachiho/beppu tours) and not sure where else to visit on a free day. Highly recommended tour, as our tour guide Edward was very professional and gave detailed explanation about the destinations’ - some fun facts, some historical knowledge, and some chemistry knowledge.
