[Japan Kyushu Cruise Shore Excursion] Fukuoka Port/Nagasaki Port/Kumamoto Port/Kagoshima Port Shore Excursion (Coaster Small Group) Green License Plate Chinese Driver
- Exquisite Small Group Configuration, Comfortable, Worry-Free, and Effortless We adopt a boutique team model of 9-40 people throughout the journey. Fukuoka, Nagasaki, and Kumamoto are paired with Toyota Coaster, Hiace commercial vehicles, or large buses, with exclusive experienced Chinese drivers; Kagoshima is paired with 20+ seater minibuses and professional Chinese tour guides throughout the journey, who are not only proficient in local road conditions to ensure a smooth trip, but also provide professional scenic spot explanations, cultural popularization, and shopping and dining recommendations. The space is spacious and comfortable, bidding farewell to crowded and noisy environments. From port pick-up to return boarding, we provide “one-stop service,” eliminating the need for self-planning transportation and routes, completely freeing your hands.
- In-depth Roaming, Full Coverage of Humanities and Nature Fukuoka, Nagasaki, Kumamoto, and Kagoshima are featured ports, with distinct and non-overlapping themes each day: Fukuoka balances cultural blessings and commercial district revelry, Nagasaki has both charming corporate museums and traditional cultural shrines, as well as characteristic food commercial districts. Kumamoto focuses on ancient gardens, famous cities, and cute surrounding merchandise, while Kagoshima integrates volcanic wonders and garden aesthetics. From millennium shrines and century-old gardens to active volcanoes and aquariums, from characteristic commercial streets to high-end department stores, Kyushu’s fun, food, and shopping are all covered.
- Genuine Pure Play with No Tricks, Flexible and Free Time We firmly reject forced shopping and hidden consumption, and the itinerary planning reserves ample free activity time—2 hours of casual shopping in Tenjin commercial district, 2 hours in Hamamachi shopping street, a commercial area combining food and souvenirs, and shopping for Kumamon limited editions at Tsuruya Department Store, meeting the personalized needs of different tourists. The time spent at scenic spots is scientifically reasonable, ensuring an in-depth touring experience without rushing, making every segment of the journey relaxed and enjoyable.
- Intensive Special Experiences, Creating Exclusive Memories The itinerary includes several “must-experience” items in Kyushu: touching the frog statue at Nyoirin-ji Temple for blessings of peace, seeking academic amulets at Dazaifu for good fortune; strolling through Kumamoto Castle to experience the grandeur of “Japan’s Three Famous Castles,” and purchasing exclusive Kumamon merchandise at Tsuruya Department Store; in Kagoshima, choosing to circumnavigate Sakurajima to see the active volcano erupt, or appreciating the Japanese aesthetics of “borrowing scenery from Sakurajima” at Sengan-en Garden, each place offers unique travel memories.
- Thoughtful and Detailed Service, Adapted for Cruise Travel Precisely aligning with cruise ship docking and departure times, the driver and guide will greet you at the port with a sign in advance, and sufficient time is reserved for the visa interview process to avoid delays. Daily returns ensure arrival at the port before the latest boarding time, allowing buffer time for boarding, completely eliminating cruise passengers’ “rush to the ship anxiety,” and seamlessly connecting the entire itinerary with the cruise schedule.

Reviews
Good to know
- Pre-Departure Preparation Guide:
- Document Preparation: Make sure to bring your original passport and photocopies (it's recommended to have 1-2 extra copies), as well as your cruise card. You may need to present them when disembarking, entering the country, and purchasing tickets for attractions to avoid loss.
- Expense Preparation: The itinerary does not include entrance fees for attractions, meals, or personal expenses. It is recommended to exchange an appropriate amount of Japanese Yen in cash in advance (some small shops and food stalls may not support credit card payments). Also, bring UnionPay cards or international credit cards for backup.
- Packing List: It is recommended to bring comfortable walking shoes, as some attractions (such as Dazaifu Omotesando and Kumamoto Castle) require long periods of walking. You can prepare portable rain gear to cope with possible light rain in winter in Japan.
- Useful Tools: Download Japanese translation software (such as Google Translate or Youdao Translate) and offline maps (such as Google Maps) in advance to facilitate communication and navigation during free activities. Activate international roaming on your mobile phone or purchase a local Japanese phone card to ensure smooth communication.
- Itinerary Safety and Discipline:
- Punctual Assembly: The daily assembly time and location are subject to the tour guide's notice. After the cruise ship docks, disembarkation requires orderly queuing. Be sure to arrive at the meeting point at the specified time to avoid affecting the entire group's itinerary due to personal lateness. Please wait at the designated location 15 minutes before returning to the ship. Do not leave the group without permission.
- Safety First: When visiting Sakurajima, you must comply with the scenic area's safety prompts and stay away from dangerous areas of volcanic activity. Please stand firm and hold tight when taking transportation facilities such as the Sakurajima ferry, and take good care of your personal belongings. Avoid going to remote areas during free activities, do not travel alone at night, and remember the tour guide's contact information and meeting point.
- Compliance with Regulations: Keep quiet in Japanese shrines, temples and other places. Photography is prohibited in some areas (which will be clearly marked). Please consciously abide by the rules. Garbage sorting is strictly required in Japan. Please carry the garbage generated during free activities with you and discard it in designated trash cans.
- Attractions and Consumption Tips:
Ticket Information: The ticket prices for each attraction have been clearly marked (such as Sengan-en Garden 1600 yen/person). You can purchase them yourself at the attraction's ticket office, and the tour guide can assist with communication. Kagoshima Sakurajima and the aquarium are two optional items, and you can plan in advance according to your interests.
Shopping Suggestions: Fukuoka Tenjin shopping district and Kumamoto Tsuruya Department Store are local official shopping areas. When purchasing cosmetics and souvenirs, please pay attention to the product shelf life and tax refund policy (some shopping malls can refund tax with a passport when the amount is full). Kumamon co-branded products are only available in some Tsuruya Department Store stores, and you can consult the tour guide in advance.
Dining Recommendations: Sufficient free dining time has been reserved during the itinerary. You can try local specialties - Fukuoka Dazaifu Ume Branch Cake, Kumamoto horse meat sashimi, and Kagoshima black wagyu yakiniku. The tour guide can recommend well-reputed shops according to your taste.
- Emergency and Contact: Emergency Contact: Save the tour guide’s mobile phone number, the Royal Caribbean Spectrum of the Seas cruise service phone number, and the Chinese Consulate General in Fukuoka’s phone number (092-751-9100) in advance. In case of emergencies such as lost documents or physical discomfort, contact the tour guide or cruise staff as soon as possible.
Itinerary Adjustment: If the itinerary changes due to force majeure factors such as weather or port policies, the tour guide will notify and negotiate adjustments in a timely manner. Please cooperate. If an individual needs to temporarily change the itinerary due to special circumstances, they need to communicate and confirm with the tour guide in advance.
Words of Warmth: I hope you can experience the profoundness of human history and culture, as well as the healing of nature and cuteness, and enjoy a comfortable and pleasant cruise shore excursion filled with good memories and special souvenirs during your one-day trip to Kyushu!
