Things to do in Mine

It was a great experience. We easily found the meeting point at Hakata Station. Our guide, Nanami, was incredibly friendly and effortlessly switched between Chinese, Japanese, and English, explaining the itinerary and providing brief details about the attractions. The mini-bus was also very comfortable, and the driver was skilled. If you have luggage, you need to contact them via email in advance. We were lucky today; although it was cloudy with scattered showers, it didn't rain during our visits to the attractions, even though it rained heavily on the road. The turbulent sea and the vibrant red torii gate offered a wonderful experience. Akiyoshido Cave was quite cool inside, so bringing a jacket is recommended; it felt like a cave exploration. The crepes at the ice cream shop by the cave entrance were mediocre and not cheap.

Lisa was our tour guide, and she was phenomenal in guiding us through the spots our bus took us too. She was happy to tell us the location for good photos and to help us take photos, too. She spoke English and Mandarin well to everyone in the bus. This tour specifically is worth it!

My experience on the Kyushu Yamaguchi Secret Tour (Akiyoshido Cave) was incredible from start to finish. Akiyoshido Cave is an absolute masterpiece of nature—massive, surreal, and breathtakingly beautiful. What truly made the day exceptional, though, was our tour guide, Cico. She was exceptionally informative, guiding us through the history and formations of the cave with fascinating details. She also went above and beyond by sharing fantastic local food recommendations and tips on what to try next. To top it all off, Cico took some amazing candid photos of us throughout the trip that captured the moment perfectly. If you are taking this tour, I genuinely hope you get Cico as your guide. Highly recommend!

Even though the weather was cloudy and the photos weren't great, it was a pleasant and fun trip thanks to our guide, Lisha! Thank you very much.

Incredible experience. It's a must-visit if you're passing through Yamaguchi or nearby areas. I definitely recommend it.
