Hirosaki Castle tours

although it was raining in the afternoon but I really enjoyed the tour. Erina was so helpful and always assisting us, she’s friendly and always smiling and of course…beautiful hehe. THANK YOU so much ERINA👍

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This was easily one of the highlights of our trip to Japan! If you’re a fan of JDM culture, Fast & Furious, or just love cars, this experience is absolutely worth it. It doesn’t feel like a typical tourist tour—you really become part of the local car community. Seeing legendary cars, meeting passionate owners, driving through Tokyo at night, and visiting Daikoku PA created memories we’ll never forget. A special thank you to our driver, Timi. She was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and professional from the very beginning. She made us feel comfortable, shared interesting stories, answered all our questions, and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Her passion for JDM culture really shows, and it made the night feel authentic and special. Thank you, Timi, and the whole Gaijin Tuned team for an unforgettable evening. We would definitely do it again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Tokyo!

Sun Peng, our guide, deserves a perfect score! He was incredibly knowledgeable about Kumamoto throughout the trip, explaining the unique features of each attraction. To be honest, the scenic train wasn't really worth it; 2300 yen per person just to see some mountains. It wasn't as beautiful as the Ghibli train I rode in Hakone, Tokyo. It was a shame we couldn't go boating in Takachiho Gorge today. The scenery was nice, though slightly less impressive than Hokkaido's Blue Pond. My only criticism for the guide is regarding Takachiho Shrine. Going there is fine, but the path is genuinely difficult, so be prepared. However, on the way back to the parking lot, the guide told us to follow Google Maps to the third parking lot, which would have been a disaster! You absolutely must return to the slope and head straight for the third parking lot. When you go to the shrine, there's a fork in the road on that slope; pay attention to the sign for the third parking lot. It's only 300m that way. Do NOT follow the map! Our large group followed the map, but luckily, I had seen the sign on the way in, otherwise, we would have been completely lost trying to go back the same way! The cheese buns the guide recommended were pretty good, and the cream puffs were also nice, filled with ice cream. I didn't get to try the summer iced tea special. The horse meat sashimi and barbecue were decent, but don't have high expectations; it's not as good as grilled beef. Next, regarding the guide's recommendations at Kusasenri: I didn't buy the keychains, nor the horse oil cream, but I did get a fridge magnet. The green house was a bit hard to find, so you need to look carefully. The beef burger was sold out. The only thing I think is worth recommending, which the guide didn't, is the ice cream. If you go, remember to try the ice cream at the museum! Oh, and I should mention that the time at Kusasenri is quite short. If you climb to the observation deck and then want to eat or shop, it might be a bit rushed. Be prepared to just have ice cream! The fridge magnet is cute and worth buying for 800 yen! Finally, the Ten Ga Ten ramen was a bit unappetizing; the firm noodles were very salty, not as good as Ippudo in Osaka, haha. Ippudo is also salty (apparently ramen is meant to be paired with sake). As for the Osmanthus fried rice: it tasted like something any Chinese restaurant could make, so there's no need to specifically try it in Japan, haha! Overall, this group tour was actually pretty good, just a bit rushed. Of course, that's because there were many places to visit, and it wasn't a self-guided tour, haha! I would definitely join a group tour again if I have the chance!

Explore a stunning hidden gem, a mythical one-day tour of Kyushu! This trip included visits to Kamishikimi Kumanoza Shrine, Takachiho Gorge, Amano Iwato Shrine, and Amano Yasukawara, and the overall experience was wonderful. Attraction Highlights: Kamishikimi Kumanoza Shrine has a very peaceful and sacred atmosphere, and the photos taken there have a spiritual quality; the scenery at Takachiho Gorge is even more spectacular, making the trip absolutely worthwhile. Tour Experience: Being able to visit so many classic Miyazaki and Takachiho attractions in one day is very convenient and effortless for independent travelers, as there's no need to worry about complicated transportation transfers. Special Note (for those with dietary restrictions): Although the tour includes a "Miyazaki Beef Special Lunch," since I personally don't eat beef, I recommend that friends with dietary needs confirm with the tour guide when booking or on the day of the tour. They are usually very accommodating. Summary: The itinerary was well-paced yet smooth, and the tour guide's service was very professional. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to visit these beautiful, mythical attractions all at once!

The tour guide Mr. 大橋 was so helpful and knowledgeable, who, helped to arrange the boat ride successfully to let us have wonderful and memorable experience from this trip. truly appreciate for his help for my family to get such great time as first timer of Kyushu.

I enjoyed this trip a lot. I saw plenty of cute and pretty things at Yufuin village. Just a little sad that the train ride was suspended during our time. However, we were able to spend longer time at other attractions. Our tour guide, Daisy, is such a kind person. She even made maps and food recommendations for us to try. Also, our bus driver drives carefully so I was able to rest between locations.

Having a small group tour is better than the big one (bus). There's always communication with everyone. Our guide, Lee, is kind & drives carefully. Even though it was raining, the Mr Lee still stops at every place listed on the itinerary. He tries to explain history or bit & pieces of the places we've been. Overall, it was a good experience. Just a bit sad because we haven't seen Mt Fuji coz it was raining 😞

This Itoshima day trip was one of the highlights of our stay in Fukuoka. Every stop had something unique to offer. The itinerary was well-paced, giving us enough time to explore, take photos, and simply enjoy the scenery without feeling rushed. A special thank you to our guide, Chen, for making the experience even better. The instructions were always clear, meeting points were easy to follow, and the tour stayed on schedule while still allowing us to enjoy every stop. What I appreciated most was Chen’s attentiveness and genuine care for the group. His professionalism and positive attitude made the trip smooth, relaxing, and enjoyable from start to finish. If you’re looking for an easy and memorable way to explore Itoshima, I highly recommend this tour. The beautiful destinations, seamless organization, and excellent service from Chen made it a five-star experience.
