Today's tour guide was Kong, and we were very satisfied with the itinerary. Guide Kong shared a lot of knowledge and cultural stories about Kumamoto, carefully introducing local specialties, recommended foods, and souvenirs at every destination, which saved us a lot of time searching on our own. During the tour, he also pointed out the best photo spots. The overall itinerary was arranged very reasonably—not too rushed, yet with plenty of time for photos—and he specifically warned us about tourist traps and unnecessary expenses. A special thanks to our driver, Mr. Ueda, for the smooth driving. He even intentionally slowed down when passing scenic views so we could take pictures, spoke with an extremely gentle voice, and kept the vehicle clean and comfortable. Highly recommend choosing this tour when visiting Kyushu!

one of the best tours I have ever been to! the tour goes to all of the must see spots in Miyazaki! the Gorge was absolutely beautiful! i also really loved the Aso Grass land. it was very foggy which created a ghibli vibe right out of the Howls Moving Castle movie. our guide was absolutely amazing! she pointed us to all of the best spots and photo opportunities. the tour ended with the opportunity to try horse meat at an absolutely delicious shop- and local secret.

The tour guide Mr. Cho is an amazing person. He is so happy-go-lucky and always ready to help everyone. He waits for you if everybody is rushing and you are left behind. He takes care of the group very well, and we had an amazing day. The tour is organized very well, and all the points are worth visiting.

I think this one-day tour was fantastic. Not only was the buy-one-get-one-free deal incredibly good value, but they also gave us souvenirs at the end. What I really appreciated most was not having to worry about transportation. Our tour guide was also very professional, and his English was excellent. We had foreign tourists in our group, and the guide could switch from Chinese to English instantly. His English was very pleasant to listen to. The only downside was that the flowing noodle area was closed due to an earthquake or something similar, so we didn't get to try the flowing noodles, which was a bit of a shame. Also, some group members went boating and were late, but the guide waited for them.

The overall experience of this trip was fantastic! Tour guide Fan is extremely fluent in Chinese, Japanese, and English, so communication was a breeze. Furthermore, he is very kind and attentively cared for every traveler along the way.
The itinerary was well-organized, the introductions to each attraction were very detailed, and departure times were always announced in advance, allowing everyone to follow the schedule with peace of mind. The driver was also very dedicated, making the entire bus ride comfortable.
All the sights this time were beautiful, and I especially loved Takachiho Gorge. The natural scenery, shrines, and outdoor activities along the way were truly relaxing, and the lunch was delicious as well. The overall pace did not feel rushed at all, making it a very comfortable journey.
If you join this kind of outdoor tour, since there are quite a few sections that require walking, I recommend wearing a good pair of comfortable walking shoes to make it much easier! I highly recommend this experience to anyone who loves natural scenery and shrines.

I had booked this tour led by guide Nana, but since I was staying overnight in Kumamoto that evening, I realized right before departure that it didn't quite fit my schedule. Guide Nana immediately helped me switch to a more suitable tour led by guide Zhou. It poured rain on the day of the tour, but guide Zhou thoughtfully looked after all the team members the entire way. She was enthusiastic and cheerful, bringing laughter wherever we went. When an American joined the group as we left Kumamoto Castle, guide Zhou took turns explaining everything in both Chinese and English all the way. Listening to her native-sounding English introduction was also a treat. Finally, when we were about to leave, guide Zhou asked the driver to drop us off right at the station entrance so we wouldn't get soaked in the rain while pulling our luggage. In short, I am very grateful to the two enthusiastic guides I met this time. Even though it was a rainy day, my heart was filled with sunshine the whole way.

Due to the earthquake in the Kyushu region, we changed the tour to Miyazaki for safety reasons. I am Korean, and the guide was fluent in English, Japanese, and Chinese, so if you know a little of any of those three languages, you'll have a comfortable trip. Also, it seems like the guides are assigned randomly, but the guide I had was very kind! Oh, and since you'll be walking quite a bit, I recommend wearing comfortable shoes. For dining, it's a good idea to research restaurants in advance or consider bringing a packed lunch.

Quick facts about Nishiusuki County
General info
What to know before visiting Nishiusuki County
A quick snapshot of Nishiusuki County
Nishiusuki County is a calm getaway where Tours and Cruises drive most visitor activity, with guided outings and boat-based experiences leading bookings. Demand has a strong seasonal swing, peaking in April and dipping sharply around August and September, so the rhythm of the year is very pronounced.
When to visit and how prices move
According to Klook booking data, the busiest month is April while the quietest months are in August and September. Prices are highest around July and August and then drift down through autumn, with October typically the cheapest month for activities. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for October through December; if you prefer peak-season atmosphere and the liveliest tour options, plan for April or May. Note that demand and prices diverge slightly: demand peaks earlier in spring while prices stay high into midsummer.
Tips for travellers from the United States
Most visitors from the United States typically book about eleven days ahead, so planning a bit in advance helps—especially for travel in April and July when demand rises. For flexible or shorter trips you can still book at the last minute (around two days out) for many Tours, but for popular dates consider reserving early or during the early booking window. Use Klook to lock in tours and cruises ahead of travel so you have more choices during busy periods.
