Things to do in Kitakyushu

the cave is something that you definitely have to experience in person for yourself! impressive sight. also, do try the burdock noodles right outside the cave! it was the best thing i ate on my trip. the view of the sea was more stunning than the torii gates imo, and the bridge wasnt too special. my guide was helpful and offered to help take photos, and seemed like a nice person, which i really do appreciate. however, it was hard to find the tour group at the gathering point and you have to ask around to find your guide. it also felt like the guide was overwhelmed by the large tour group size, especially when guide’s chinese is noticeably better than english. i could understand both languages, so it was clear when some info wasnt mentioned in english, and i felt bad for the english-only speakers on the tour.

The tour guide is very understanding. we missed the bus & we took the public bus to go there and he met us there and automatically helped us i getting the ticket/gears all ready and we able to board the tour bus back. Thank you so much!

This trip to Kitakyushu's Mojiko and Tsunoshima was very smooth and full of unique experiences. The tour guide not only knew the opening time of the Blue Wing Mojiko drawbridge, saving us a long wait, but also thoughtfully arranged visits to the Mojiko Retro area and Karato Market, allowing us to eat and explore. The meal choices were a big plus, whether it was the unique baked curry from Curry Honpo or the pufferfish dishes at Karato Market, both were very memorable. The timing for visiting the Tsunoshima Bridge and Motonosumi Shrine was also perfect, with weather and lighting ideal for taking photos. Overall, the tour guide was friendly and attentive, with clear explanations, making the trip both relaxing and fulfilling. It was a very enjoyable experience.

This trip was with family and one child, departing from Fukuoka. Our tour guide, LINA, was very considerate, arranging our seats in the front row (because we had a child) and caring for all the tour members. She diligently introduced the attractions and shared about life in Japan 🇯🇵 along the way, allowing tour members to gain a deeper understanding. The itinerary was packed, starting from Mojiko (architecture with a retro style), a 5-minute boat ride to the lively Karato Market (eating tempura 🍤 and sashimi), Kokura Castle (magnificent architecture, moat, and beautiful red maple leaves along the way), Miyajidake Shrine ⛩️ (the seasonal Path of Light is very beautiful). It was a very fulfilling trip, and my family was very satisfied. I would definitely join again if I have the opportunity. It was fantastic! 👏👏👏

I am so grateful that you guided me through the bottled water service one by one with a translator, and you were such a kind guide~^^ If you want to experience Shimonoseki, a wonderful shrine, and even the night view, I recommend it~

This is the kind of one-day trip you would want to take when you’re not driving and want to visit places with stunning views. The tour guide is friendly and knowledgeable. She shared recommendations on arrival at each location and simply lets you enjoy the time (around an hour at each spot). As a solo female traveller, I can safely take a nap while transferring to the next location, without fear of missing a bus or train back to the city.

This tour is a great way to spend a day outside Fukuoka. The itinerary was nice it covered places in Itoshima and Yanagawa. Our guide Owen is nice. Despite being a Chinese group tour, explained to us everything in English very well. He's also very patient and he takes our photos very well too. If I could give 10 stars I would. Plus he's very good looking. Overall I really enjoyed this trip. Thank you!

Good trip with good itinerary and guide! At first I didnt even realized we were going to Honshu. Glad we did. Wonderful places otherwise I wouldnt have seen. Maybe since it was a long drive up north of Kyushu I would have added a stop on one of the north cities of Kyushu like Kitakyushu sites. Our tour Cary was very nice and attentive and gave a lot of information. It was a wonderful day.

Thanks to Ada, our guide, her kindness and consideration made what I thought would be a difficult trip today, so happy and enjoyable. I was worried about the sudden rain and cold, but I had much more fun than I thought. Thank you so much for always being smiling and taking good care of us so that we were not uncomfortable. And thank you to the driver who helped with the driving for dropping us off safely until the end.
