The tour guide was awesome (I forgot her name, she was a young lady from Northeast China). She was fluent in Mandarin and English and gave detailed introductions. Even though it was hot that day, she was still very patient in helping all the group members take photos (please give her a raise from the company). If you have free time when you come to Fukuoka, I suggest you arrange a day trip to go there.

Few standard styles were available; female customers mostly opted for upgrades. Simple styles were acceptable for male customers. The upstairs shop isn't very spacious; more than two people will have to wait to change and get their hair styled. Overall, the experience was satisfactory. They are skilled at hairstyling and dressing, so it's worth a try.

Our Chinese guide Yang is so kind, she offered to help us and all the tour members take photos. Also enjoy her sharing during the bus journey. The pace is good and I had a great time exploring the places. The weather did not do us justice that day but I still have a great time cos of this tour.

A fulfilling tour, very suitable for travelers who come to Kyushu for free travel. This time I took my mother on a trip, and this itinerary was very good! ! Otherwise, it would take more time to go to Yufuin by yourself. There was a tour bus to take us there and a tour guide to introduce us, which was super great!
