The tour guide Ada is fluent in Chinese, English and Japanese. She will send e-mails to inform you of precautions before the trip. She is a very careful, considerate, dedicated and beautiful female tour guide. The explanation is detailed and thorough. The scenery of the train in this season is not too amazing, but the scenery of the Takachiho Gorge is great. It is recommended to arrange a boating trip when traveling in Takachiho.

Few standard styles were available; female customers mostly opted for upgrades. Simple styles were acceptable for male customers. The upstairs shop isn't very spacious; more than two people will have to wait to change and get their hair styled. Overall, the experience was satisfactory. They are skilled at hairstyling and dressing, so it's worth a try.

A fulfilling tour, very suitable for travelers who come to Kyushu for free travel. This time I took my mother on a trip, and this itinerary was very good! ! Otherwise, it would take more time to go to Yufuin by yourself. There was a tour bus to take us there and a tour guide to introduce us, which was super great!
