The tour guide Xiao Te explained a lot of history to us very seriously! He also shared with us many Hakata delicacies~ Although it is a new activity, it is very fulfilling overall. Because the weather is not very good, Xiao Te is also very considerate to move the outdoor Queen Boat activity to the morning, saying that it is less rainy~~~ It was really smooth to get on the boat and also smooth to get on the boat board to see the scenery! Recommend Xiao Te👍🏻

I went to five attractions in Saga today. The tour guide took good care of every tourist and assisted in taking photos, and introduced the history of the attractions. The cherry blossoms are in full bloom now, which is really beautiful.

The torii gate on the sea is very photogenic. The flowers at Mifuneyama Rakuen are different in March, April and May, which are very beautiful. There are cherry blossoms all over the area near Yutoku Inari Shrine, and the yokan (red bean cake) in the shopping street is surprisingly delicious. Thank you, tour guide Aiko
