Loved my day and adored my guide Lina/Lyna/Leanna (sorry didn't see her name tag). Our always smiling guide was enthusiastic when showing us around. Providing us with the locations for the best photos and playing photographer. I had the chance to do horseriding but declined trying the famed horse croquettes. The onset that Lina took us to was fantastic. Unfortunately I couldn't take photos. It was outdoor onsen, where I could hear and see a waterfall.
Mount Aso crater and Kusasenri. Aso Shrine and Kurokawa Onsen tours were such precious times. Especially, the guide, Tak Yeon-ji, explained everything so well that I enjoyed the tour. She also took pictures at great photo spots and explained Japanese culture in an easy-to-understand way, which was great. I would like to join the next bus tour with Tak Yeon-ji. Travelers who meet Tak Yeon-ji are lucky. Thank you again to Tak Yeon-ji for making this a wonderful trip.
Our guide for the day was Nana, who provided enthusiastic service, detailed explanations, and seamlessly switched between Chinese, Japanese, and English. She was also very thoughtful and helped us communicate with the hotel we booked in Kurokawa. We thoroughly enjoyed the scenery along the way, which helped us better understand Aso ❤️ The entire travel itinerary was perfectly arranged. The schedule was well-balanced without being too rushed. Every destination we visited impressed me greatly. I really enjoyed this wonderful trip and would highly recommend our tour guide, Nana.
The tour guide was very professional and friendly, and the itinerary was well-focused, mainly on the major attractions of Aso, making it suitable for first-time visitors.
Our scheduled tour, led by NANA, departed on time, and she provided detailed explanations throughout. We saw beautiful scenery, and our guide also shared hidden gems along the way, demonstrating her keen observation skills and genuine appreciation for local culture. I’m totally satisfied with this travel plan. The arrangement is thoughtful and reasonable. Plenty of time was reserved for sightseeing and relaxation. It turned out to be an unforgettable journey.
Although I was initially flustered by the guide change, I met a wonderful guide who put all my worries at ease, and we had an enjoyable tour.
Our tour guide, Ms. Li (Sister Li), was incredibly enthusiastic in her explanations and very attentive to the group members! We needed to leave the tour at Kurokawa Onsen, and she proactively contacted the local onsen hotel to arrange our pickup. She even helped us push our luggage up a slope on a hot summer day, which we felt very bad about. 🙏🏻 Ms. Li's service attitude made us re-evaluate the professionalism and dedication of tour guides. Honestly, many tour guides in Southeast Asia can't compare. ❤️
wonderful trip, fun in the snow, onsen
