Super valuable trip!! I get to see Mt Aso and very fortunately made it to the crater. It was a refreshing experience as we get to choose to dip in a local onsen or just walk around Kurokawa Onsen for our last agenda. Thanks to our enthusiastic and efficient tour guide Jimmy for keeping us entertained with loads of information throughout the bus ride. Althought the time at each attraction is a little short, I still think the arrangement is well crafted and everyone’s needs was well taken care of 🤗
We couldn’t visit the crater, but we appreciated the extra time to explore Kunanseri. Our guide, Daisy, took us to see the cherry blossoms and gave us snacks and small gifts. Thank you—we really enjoyed the trip.
Great tour! Very convenient to get around to these multiple sites in a timely manner. The bus driver was great, and the tour guide Daisy was very friendly and answered any of my questions promptly through Whatsapp. She was very knowledgeable of the sites and presented in both English and Chinese. You need to be mindful of time, but the stops were long enough to relax, just be efficient.
Due to a short stay in Fukuoka and a desire to visit other areas of Kyushu, I chose to join a one-day tour. The itinerary was packed, but the overall flow was clear. Our guide, Nicole, was attentive to the group throughout the day and provided clear and organized explanations of each attraction in both Chinese and English, making the tour run very smoothly. One-day tours inevitably have time constraints, making it impossible to linger at each location, but this was anticipated before booking. Overall, it was an efficient and worthwhile trip. If I visit Kyushu again in the future, I will still consider booking a one-day tour through Klook.
This was an unforgettable trip, even though we were stuck in traffic on the highway for almost two hours at the beginning. But our tour guide, Xiao Yang, Yang Meng, worked hard to continue arranging the itinerary without any gaps. She also made stable arrangements and introduced each attraction on the bus. The Kusasenri Plateau and Mount Aso were both wonderful. Thank you for her work!
Nicole Yang Meng is very friendly and approachable guide. She explained well n keep us posted. bilingual in Englush n Chinese. We are group of four elderly friends, this itinerary is suitable n friendly to us. Thanks for an enjoyable trip
Our trip was wonderful, and our guide Kevin was very professional. He gave us an in-depth understanding of the magnificent views of Mount Aso and the charm of Kurokawa Onsen. Every spot was refreshing, and the comfort of the hot springs was especially relaxing. We highly recommend this trip and look forward to coming back!
Even though the drive is long, it's worth it to catch a glimpse of the mysterious Mount Aso active volcano. It feels like it's constantly changing. The atmosphere at Kurokawa Onsen is wonderful, and those who enjoy hot springs can have a great experience.

He vividly shared many of his experiences living in Kumamoto for years, and his introductions to local cultural attractions were rich and interesting. All the arrangements were also very thoughtful.
