Kumamoto Prefecture

we enjoyed our time inking a manga page. There were many options to choose from, and the staff were friendly. There was a practice sheet so you could get a feel for how to use the ink pen.

To Anyone going to Japan, this will most defnitely be the best and most interactive personal Samurai experience. It is the highlight of our entire Japan trip. You will have a wondeful English interpreter and an excelent master.

This was such an inyerestimg experience and it was really great to get to make something of our own.

We had a wonderful time on our trip to Takachiho George, despite the unfortunate cancellation of our boat ride due to the rising tide, which we had no control over. Apart from that, all the places we visited, starting with the majestic Mt. Aso, the serene Kamishikimi Shrine, and the breathtaking Takachiho George, were truly picturesque. Japan has truly blessed us with its stunning natural beauty. Our tour guide, Nicole Yang, was incredibly helpful and made our trip enjoyable. She speaks both English and Mandarin fluently, and her English is good, making it easy for us to understand her. The travel time from Hakata to Mt. Aso or Takachiho George is approximately 2.5 to 3.5 hours. Please remember to bring some food, as the journey can be quite long. However, the trip will stop on the expressway both ways to Hakata, so you’ll have a chance to use the restroom. We hope to book this trip again in the future and finally get to ride the boat! 😇

I do not speak Mandarin Chinese, only English. but the guide Kong was so helpful and she is friendly. she tries her best. I recommend the tour. there was not any other English tour I could find so I came here. It was amazing. we were unfortunately unable to ride the train as it was storming and with the rain, no one could ride the boat + cannot go on the mount aso as it is closed. despite this, it was a really good experience in the end. I highly recommend it.

I visited Kumamoto Castle for the second time! As expected of one of Japan's three most famous castles, it was large and magnificent! A few years ago, a major earthquake in Kumamoto destroyed parts of the castle, and restoration work is still ongoing, but from a tourist's perspective, there were no issues touring Kumamoto Castle! I highly recommend purchasing your admission tickets in advance through Klook! This is because at the entrance, there are separate lines for buying tickets and for those who pre-purchased tickets. If you show the staff your QR code, you can enter immediately, which significantly reduces your waiting time, making it a huge advantage!

Although it was a shame that Mount Aso was closed and we couldn't visit, Takachiho Gorge and Kusasenri were wonderful. We are truly grateful to our guide, Kong, who worked so hard despite the rainy weather. I was a little worried because the guide was Chinese, but they provided the tour information in English, so we were able to enjoy the itinerary without any inconvenience. They also enthusiastically took photos and helped us get great souvenir shots. 🤗 When Mount Aso reopens and I visit Kumamoto again, I would definitely like to go with Kong. You truly did a great job.

The Trip was fun and enjoyable will do it again. Seki our guide was so nice and helpful. Her english is fluent and the trip was unforgettable because of her! From Denver Elaijah Pineda. 10/10 will come back again for more.

We visited a lot of places during the tour and was able to have time to browse lots of souvenirs and food throughout. Mount Aso crater was unfortunately closed but we were still able to enjoy and take in the amazing views. Our guides especially Sun was so accommodating even when we me and my friend were the only 2 English speaking people in the trip. They were both really jolly and would give good infos about the places and also gave tips on food and where else to visit around Fukuoka. So thank you so much to them :)
