Kyushun wisteria-kukkakauden päiväretki: Akama-jingun pyhäkkö & Mojikon retroalue & Kokuran linna (lähtö Fukuokasta)

I really enjoyed the tour. Zhang is a great guide. He really wants the group to know more about Fukuoka and the area we visit. He shares the history of each place, the culture and the some trivia. At the end of the tour, he recommends what you need to eat in Fukuoka. Zhang made the trip amazing. We visited four places with enough time each spot. Wisteria Garden is really beautiful. be careful of the bees though. Mojiko Kokura Castle is big, i recommend to stroll around. Moji Retro is bustling with food and goods stalls. Then the shrine is beautiful as well, we even got time to feel the sea breeze and take a look ay the fish market nearby. Im glad I join this tour.

Great tour, many places to see in 1 day! Despite the rainy day we saw the main attraction nicely as our guide Jimmy changed the route order to go see wisterias first when there was almost no rain - great choice! Jimmy was very caring, organized everything quickly, had jokes ready and informed about most interesting facts, and very importantly - about restroom breaks and locations. Bus was very comfortable and schedule was on point!

Opas Xiao Wang esitteli huolellisesti eri nähtävyyksiä ja niiden historiaa, ja jakoi myös tietoa Fukuokan herkullisista ruoista ja hauskoista paikoista 👍. Kaikkiin kysymyksiin vastattiin välittömästi, ja hän auttoi myös ottamaan kauniita kuvia 🍁. Matkustimme pienellä bussilla, ja kaikki istuimet olivat täynnä. Istuimet olivat hieman pieniä ja ahtaita miehille tai pitkille ihmisille, eikä bussi sovellu matkatavaroiden kanssa matkustaville. Sää oli sinä päivänä melko hyvä (vaikka Yufuinissa satoi hieman, mutta vain hetken), taivas oli kaunis, ja joissakin kohteissa vaahteranlehdet 🍁 olivat vähitellen muuttumassa punaisiksi. Vaikka aikataulu oli tiukka, nautimme jokaisesta kohteesta ja otimme paljon kuvia. Tämä matka sopii ensikertalaisille tai perheille, jotka eivät halua ajaa itse 🚗. Kaiken kaikkiaan se oli hieno kokemus, suosittelen kaikille!

A well organised tour. Tour guide and driver were very polite and friendly. Tour guide Jimmy is excellent, not only good in leading the tour, he also shared about interesting Japanese culture and habits. We managed to visit places we wanted to go with a low fee and without have to worry about transportation. Great !

I was so impressed by how well-manged in everything MS.Wendy, our guide did! she always ask for our enjoyment and also treated us like family! miss Wendy can speak three languages so don’t be afraid if you don’t understand Japanese ! I think it will be better if only we can take more time in Yufuin😻 but overall, I was so satisfied and I got such good experiences traveling with Ms.Wendy👍🏻❤️

One crucial thing about a one day trip is always the weather. Unfortunately ours was a rainy day. Jimmy 柳-san was able to apply his 20 yrs of guiding expertise and suggested that we changed the sequence and went to the Fujien first to see the wisterias. 1) rain was small to none; 2) to avoid the Golden Week crowds; 3) everyone still looked sharp and Genki; 4) pictures of us would look exceptionally good. He was right! Our time at the wisteria garden was marvellous and usage of umbrella was minimal. Once we got on the bus to leave, down came the pouring rain. Then we proceeded to the indoor Kokura Castle, Mojiko Port when the rain was very big. No one was soaking wet because of the arrangement. Last stop was the Akama Shrine, also part indoor. The whole journey was well planned, well thought and well executed thanks to Jimmy! Only one small suggestion: please fill us in more juicy details of the Japanese history, we are thirsty for it! Thanks to the driver too who drove us from 9 to 6.

Jimmy was so entertaining and a good communicator. His strategy to first to Wisteria to avoid the crowd is one of the best decision.

非常幸運看到滿滿的紫藤花，感謝專業導遊吳霞，也感謝當天團友準時

this trip was so good, reasonable price and there is a lot of place that I think buying a tour is more easier than go by themselves. our guide (Wendy) also really friendly and always take care of us. it’s worth our money so much.

this was a fantastic day trip to kitakyushu. Jimmy was an excellent guide offering both information and humor to the tour. he even reversed the itinerary so that we would be able to view the wisterias with less people than originally planned. this trip is best for a sunny day and comfy shoes on!
