Review for: Kumamoto Mount Aso & Takachiho Gorge Full-Day Tour

The scenery was so breathtaking and had a mystical charm. I was worried at first because there were only two Koreans in our group, but our guide, Kong Yan, explained everything clearly in English even amidst the crowds and even sent translations via KakaoTalk, so everything went smoothly. We got to explore a variety of tourist spots in a well-organized itinerary, making it a truly fun and wonderful sightseeing experience!

Our tour guide, Kong Yan, was incredibly patient and shared many interesting facts about the culture and daily life in Kumamoto and Kyushu. She was also very attentive and responsible throughout the tour, even helping everyone take photos. The driver, Shintani, was an excellent driver; the bus ride was smooth the entire way, and I, who usually get motion sickness easily, didn't feel a thing. I hope to travel with them again someday!

Ms. Kong provided an excellent service. Very considerate to translate everything to English and made sure that I don’t feel left out from the group.

I was worried because they were a Chinese guide, but they explained the basics in Japanese and English. They are a lively guide. It was great to visit key places that I wanted to see but would have been awkward to go to alone. Hang in there, Toreiko-san!
