The location is really great and the view is amazing! The accommodation is located at the station, making it very convenient to get around, and it is also optimized for taking the limousine bus to the airport. The rooms are clean and the staff are friendly.

The hotel rate was excellent. I loved spening time in the lobby since they provide free drinks and food like 8-9 kinds of bread, udon and curry. Room was spacious. Its indeed a great value accommodation.

We were late for the trip, and met up the tour guide at the dazaifu metro station. It was really nice to have our tour guide, Lina as our guide on this trip. She communicated well, waited for us at the station and guide us to the bas. Along the journey, explanation will be given by the tour guide as well so you get some info and know what to do next. It was absolutely a great trip, we went to beppu and yufuin floral village, saw some nice scenery and have some food. It was tsuyu season so expect some rain during the journey. For the time schedule, it was on time and everyone also get on time. Overall, thumbs up to this trip! 🙌👍👍

We visited a lot of places during the tour and was able to have time to browse lots of souvenirs and food throughout. Mount Aso crater was unfortunately closed but we were still able to enjoy and take in the amazing views. Our guides especially Sun was so accommodating even when we me and my friend were the only 2 English speaking people in the trip. They were both really jolly and would give good infos about the places and also gave tips on food and where else to visit around Fukuoka. So thank you so much to them :)

this tour was really good if you love animals and want to see them up close. I enjoyed the guide Zhu Zhu was so sweet and even she spoke little English she was so great and made sure I was able to follow along with rest of the group. She was so delightful and kindhearted, helped me order all the foods form all the shops and stores and offered me her umbrella and even the sweet apples. I highly recommend this route you get to see lots in one day!

This activity was definitely worth it! Since we were traveling independently and wanted to visit Motonosumi Shrine, joining this one-day tour made things much more convenient. We were very lucky to have Jimmy as our guide on this trip. His initial self-introduction on the bus immediately livened up the atmosphere and had everyone laughing heartily. Since there were also foreigners on the tour, he spoke both Mandarin and English, which was excellent and easy to understand. I'd also like to commend the driver's excellent skills; although the journey was a bit long, we rested very comfortably. The only slight disappointment on this trip was that when we reached the mountain, the fog was too thick, so we couldn't really see the scenery. I look forward to coming back next time to see the beautiful views!

Best day tour ever. Our tour guide Sun was so friendly and easy to talk. He explained everything about the places we visited even recommended other places around Fukuoka. He is such a fun and cheerful person. I’m so happy we met him. The places we visited were beautiful. Motonosumi Shrine was my dream to see it, and it didn’t disappoint. The other places were also amazing especially the Tsunoshima bridge. I highly recommend this day tour. It was perfectly organized.
