Things to do in Mine

What a fantastic day trip! The meeting point was easy to find right outside Hakata Station, and the staff proactively confirmed our destination. The seats on the bus were comfortable, and the driver was safe and steady. Our guide, Lisa, was incredibly kind and enthusiastic, always offering to help take photos. Her explanations of the attractions were very professional, and she was fluent in three languages, which made our journey very relaxed and enjoyable. All the places we visited were beautiful, and we were even luckier that the cloudy morning turned into a clear, sunny afternoon. The most incredible part was that we could easily visit several attractions that are difficult to access by public transport for less than the price of a one-way Shinkansen ticket to Kumamoto – the value for money was exceptional. Finally, the schedule was well-planned, allowing us ample time to enjoy the scenery and take photos at each attraction.

This is an easy, chill tour. You have time to see the sights, take good photos, eat or shop a bit. Akiyoshido Caves were beautiful. Our guide, Jyo, was very friendly and gave us good tips on where to take the best photos and eat some good local specialties.

Good trip with good itinerary and guide! At first I didnt even realized we were going to Honshu. Glad we did. Wonderful places otherwise I wouldnt have seen. Maybe since it was a long drive up north of Kyushu I would have added a stop on one of the north cities of Kyushu like Kitakyushu sites. Our tour Cary was very nice and attentive and gave a lot of information. It was a wonderful day.

Weather was great so the locations were very good for photos. Time at the cave was a bit rushed due to long travel times of this itinerary. Guide managed to arrange lunch for us due to limited food options at the cave.
