Things to do in Kagoshima

I visited with anticipation and was surprised to see such a wonderfully stunning sight. I was surprised that I had to stand in line to buy tickets at the ticket booth kiosk, but with Klook, I was able to scan the QR code on the voucher and enter immediately, which saved time and was appealing as it allowed me to use it like a fast pass.

The staff at the ticket booth quickly guided us to pick up our tickets and explained the areas of the park we could access, as well as the locations for picking up the soju and mochi. The park is quite large, but the route is simple. Once inside, we first took a stroll and ate mochi, and then picked up the soju when we were about to leave. The mochi was pre-grilled and super delicious. There was a decent selection of soju to choose from, two rows worth. If you don't know what to pick, you can ask the staff, and they will kindly recommend something. The Akashihouse, where you pick up the soju, sells incredibly delicious treats!! Not too sweet!! I bought some on a whim and ended up loving it!! Unexpected surprises were the mochi, the Karukan manju (light sponge cake bun), and the very unique cat shrine. I recommend going in for a walk and a look around! 👍

Our guide, Aya was a lovely lady who was very knowledgeable and took us to amazing places. We loved the visit to the pottery shop. You were not rushed and everything went smoothly. Highly recommend.

Cameron was very knowledgeable and generous with sharing about Yakushima and patient as we took our time on walks while stopping for photographs. We felt very safe being driven around in his comfy vehicle, and had a lot of fun the entire day with awesome views and lots of animals sightings! Highly recommend :) I would love to engage Yakushima Experience again if I come back and continue the great conversations we had with Cameron.

The tour guide was very thoughtful in their arrangements and care. The English explanation was also very detailed. Not only can you enjoy the fun of hiking, but you can also increase your understanding of the natural environment of Yakushima. I would definitely recommend it to those with less hiking experience who want to enjoy the forest scenery of Yakushima in a short amount of time and in a safe environment.

We had greet time in Kagoshima. Private car that we’ve booked was really proffesional and full with responsibility. Mr. Nagayoshi was kind and very helpful. we’re enjoy kagoshima even though it’s only few hours.

The lunch was incredibly delicious, and I appreciated the staff's exceptional kindness. The view during the hot spring experience was simply amazing, especially with the good weather. However, upon entering the lobby, it was difficult to find the "Suiran" restaurant without help from the front desk. I am grateful that a staff member personally escorted me along the long route to the hot spring spa after lunch. But then, at the hot spring spa, my name wasn't listed through Klook, and I had to wait for almost 10 minutes without any assistance. I believe this could be a great product with improved tour descriptions and guidance, as well as better coordination with the hotel.
