our tour guide 孙楠Sun is very polite and kind as he bring us to our day trip to Mojiko whereas he give us good tip where we could get our good sashimi at the fish market . we also enjoy our little boat ride across to visit the fish market too. food are fresh and delicious. Following after that we are being bought to a outlet district as we manage to get many good Japanese label at good price and plus a bonus to see Ultraman exhibition that is currently exhibiting . lastly we went to Sakakurayama for our stunning night view cable tour which really wrapped up our day with a beautiful end of tour

I had an absolutely wonderful experience with the tour guide Yoon! He was incredibly hospitable, friendly, and welcoming throughout the entire tour. His knowledge of the places we visited was impressive, and he shared so many interesting facts, stories, and insights that made the experience even more meaningful and enjoyable. What made him truly outstanding was how engaging and passionate he was. He went above and beyond his role as a tour guide, taking extra effort to ensure everyone felt comfortable, well taken care of, and had the best possible experience. He was attentive, patient, enthusiastic, and always happy to answer everyone's questions. It was clear that he genuinely cared about his customers and wanted everyone to have a memorable time. His exceptional hospitality, extensive knowledge, and dedication truly made this tour an unforgettable experience. I couldn't have asked for a better guide. Highly recommended, and I would definitely love to have him as my guide again!

We are lucky to find this tour very last minute. The tour company reached us very soon after we made the booking and confirmed it. Tour guide is so nice preparing candy for us. Bus equipped with strong A/C and the ride is comfortable. Time for each spot is good enough. The trip worths more than what we paid. Excellent service and experience. 我和男朋友是出发前一天晚上才决定参加这个团。下单以后,旅行公司很快就跟我们确定,然后发给我们出发的资料。见面的时候,导游张清给我们准备了糖果。非常贴心。 旅游车的冷气很足,旅程很舒适。停留每一个点的时间很足够。导游给我们的介绍很详细。晚上去看日落的地方,真的很美。这个旅程绝对值回票价。

Overall, the trip was good, but I wish we had more time to explore Mojiko. Since it was a weekend, Mount Sarakura was very crowded, with long queues. Unfortunately, we missed the sunset and reached the top when it was already dark, windy and freezing cold, so there wasn’t much to see. Our tour guide, Robin, was very nice and attentive and took good care of everyone throughout the trip.

We'd like to thank Mr. Kim for the excellent chartered car service. Not only did he provide great suggestions for our itinerary, but he also made timely adjustments based on our actual situation. We especially appreciate his thoughtful assistance with helping the elderly and children get in and out of the car, which allowed us to enjoy a pleasant day trip in Northern Kyushu.

Xiao Cai Mao puts in a lot of effort to take care of her charges. she goes out of her way to ensure her guests have good experiences. she interacts with her guests. The itinerary does not have long travel distances between sights, about a hour inbetween. outlet shopping is good, maybe can allocate a bit more time.
