Things to do in Takachiho Gorge

Very nice tour, unfortunately, the Mount Aso crater was closed and will remain so for the foreseeable future. It would be great to extend the tour by, for example, 30-45 minutes and include Kumamoto Castle. Thank you for a wonderful day.

The guide's attentiveness, kindness, and tour explanations in Japanese, English, and Chinese meant that even as a Japanese participant, I had no worries or concerns. The driver's safe driving and the comprehensive tour content were excellent. For this price, the value is incredible! I'd want to use this service every month! It was a fun day! Thank you!

I participated in the March 9th tour, and it was a very fulfilling journey. Although we couldn't go up to the Aso crater due to an incident, our guide, Mr. Kong, added an extra stop at the Kamishikimi Kumanoza Shrine, which was a pleasant surprise. The overall itinerary was well-timed, with plenty of time for boating at Takachiho, and even time to browse the surrounding stalls afterward. The scenic train ride was wonderful, and the shrine, nestled among tranquil trees in the mountains, was definitely worth visiting. The scenery at Kusasenri was stunning, with the distant volcanic smoke creating a magnificent view. The Aso ice cream is a must-try, and the merchandise for sale is also worth purchasing. This was the best tour I've ever taken. Thank you, Mr. Kong, for your thoughtful arrangements and explanations!

This tour was an absolute dream come true! These spots have been on my wishlist for the longest time, and I’m so happy I finally got to see them. Starting the trip from Kumamoto made everything so convenient, and I was impressed that we could cover Takachiho Gorge, Kusasenri, Kamishikimi Shrine, and Takachiho Shrine all in a single day without feeling overly rushed. ​A special shoutout to our tour guide! Even though the primary language of the tour was Chinese, the guide was incredibly kind and went out of their way to explain everything in English for me. It made the experience so much more inclusive and enjoyable. If you're looking for an efficient and fun way to see the best of Kyushu, I highly recommend this trip!

Our tour guide Sun Peng was doing his job very well! He taught us many knowledge about Japan & Kumamoto, also sharing many jokes and stories with us hence the whole trip was very relaxing and enjoyable. We’re satisfied with the trip itinerary as many activities were slot in within a day and he tried to make it on time. Although we were late for going back to the meet up point, he came personally to pick us up even though our location was very very far from meet up point. He gave everyone of us the Kumamoto limited keychain as small gift as well! Thumbs up for Sun Peng 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great trip with tour guide Kevin!

Very good! The guide was lovely and we visited all the places. We even received souvenirs, like a keychain.

We had a wonderful day trip! Our driver, Mr. Liu, was very considerate of the elderly in our group, ensuring they didn't have to walk much to see many beautiful sights. His driving skills were excellent, and everyone had a great time. We'll definitely arrange another private car tour next time.
