Fukuoka Prefecture Päiväretket

We were hosted by tour guide Eiichi (conversant with English, mandarin and of cos Japanese). He was very friendly and started off the tour by introducing about some Japanese history and culture and also gave us some background about the places we were going to visit. He also gave some personal food recommendations at some of the stopover points. Despite not being able to visit the Mt Aso crater (due to local govt restrictions) the shrine visit was made in place of that. Overall a great tour experience coupled with Eiichi's knowledge as a guide and also kudos to the driver Shimizu who drove us safely and timely to all the places of attraction. Definitely a value for money package! Look no further. Note : Visited on 17 Oct 2026. weather on the warmer side but beautiful nonetheless

Really enjoyed this day trip to Takachiho Gorge and Mount Aso! 😊 Our tour guide, Li Hong, was wonderful! She was cheerful, friendly and shared lots of interesting stories throughout the journey, making the long drives enjoyable. She also took very good care of everyone and made sure we were comfortable throughout the trip. Highly recommend this tour as getting around these attractions on your own can be quite troublesome, as they involve a lot of driving mountainous and windy roads. Having everything arranged made the experience so much more relaxing. We also ended our trip with a delicious Akaushi beef meal at Kusasenri, which was a lovely bonus! 🥩 Overall, a very enjoyable and well-organised experience. Would definitely recommend!

Retki oli erittäin hyvin järjestetty. Kohdelistaus oli mukava eikä lainkaan uuvuttava. Koko päivä oli ohjelman täyttämä, mutta ehti kuitenkin nauttia kaikesta rauhassa. Daisy (oppaamme) on lisäksi paras mahdollinen matkaopas! Olimme nähtävästi varanneet retken kahdeksi päiväksi hänen kanssaan, ja hän on todella mahtava! Hän puhuu sujuvasti sekä mandariinikiinaa että englantia. Hän oli todella omistautunut ja lähetti meille viestejä ravintola- ja nähtävyyssuosituksistaan. Hän antoi meille myös pienen lahjan läksiäislahjaksi. Hän on todella mukava ja iloinen. 😊 Haluaisimme ehdottomasti varata retken hänen kanssaan uudelleen ensi kerralla.

Guide Cloud (小雲) was really very patient, helpful and informative. Was worried that the tour might be rushed but we do have sufficient time at each stop. She will give us tips at different stops on how to take photos & her food recommendations were all solid. I really appreciate that she spent time to talk to all group members to get to know us better. One of the best day tour we had! Also have to thank Mr Teng (our driver) who ensures that we are all safe and on time for our schedule!

A wonderful day trip! Mount Aso is overwhelmingly beautiful—truly fitting as Misae Nohara's hometown. Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu Shrine is extremely photogenic. Having visited many hot spring towns, Kurokawa Onsen also has its own unique charm. By the river, there are 200-yen self-service open-air baths for men and women, where you can enjoy river views and the gentle sound of flowing water. Special shout-out to our tour guide, Mr. Sun Peng, who was incredibly entertaining and kept us laughing the whole way. Also, kudos to every member of the group for being well-mannered and punctual—we were the first to depart and the first to arrive at every attraction, making for a truly fantastic experience. Finally, wishing Mr. Sun good luck in guiding Stefanie Sun someday, hahaha! Ramble: The Adult Pudding in South Aso is seriously amazing! Now I finally know why it's called Adult Pudding—it's made with rum, giving it a very unique and wonderfully surprising texture.

it’s a very good experience and easy to get into the place with lots of fun knowledge. the tour guide arranged the timing well and didn’t waste any of the time waiting anything. so I will highly recommend to join the tour if you don’t want to drive yourself from other places.

Minulla oli kaunis ja upea päivä vieraillessani Yufuinissa, Beppussa, Kinrin-järvellä ja Dazaifussa! Olin ainoa englanninkielinen vieras kiertueella, kun taas suurin osa muista vieraista kuului kiinankieliseen ryhmään. Mutta upean matkaoppaamme Nanan ansiosta en koskaan tuntenut itseäni ulkopuoliseksi tai yksinäiseksi. Nana-san käänsi kaiken minulle englanniksi, otti puhelinnumeroni siltä varalta, että eksyisin tai kadottaisin jotain, varmisti, että minulla oli mukava istuin, ja tarkisti jatkuvasti, että olin kunnossa. Hän oli niin lämmin, hauska ja aidosti huomaavainen. Hän jopa suositteli minulle loistavaa jäätelöpaikkaa Honeybeesissä! Rehellisesti sanottuna tuntui siltä, että minulla oli oma pieni matkakumppani koko päivän. Suosikkiosuuteni matkasta oli Kinrin-järvi. Olin rehellisesti hämmästynyt sen kauneudesta. Beppu oli myös uskomaton. Emme päässeet Beppu Ropeway -köysiradalle sään vuoksi, ja Dazaifu oli rakennustöiden alla vierailuni aikana. Yufuin oli minulle luultavasti vähiten nautinnollinen osa, koska se tuntui melko turistikkaalta ja ruuhkaiselta. Loppujen lopuksi minulla oli kuitenkin aivan ihana aika.

hedi was one of the best guide we ever travelled with. she explains things well and even tried to explain in English to a Chinese family despite being a native from China. she is also very helpful, even helped us to make dinner reservations. highly recommended. however, I think Yufuin and the hot spring can skip. nothing fanciful. the zoo is the highlight.

I did the tour to see Takachiho Gorge and Aso Kusasenri, and I had a fantastic time. The tour was incredibly well-organized. Our guide, Sun, was knowledgeable and professional; he gave us great context about the area and guided us exceptionally well throughout the day. The gorge was beautiful, and the boat experience was so much fun. I also added the lunch package at the last minute and was really glad I did, because the food was delicious. We even got to see horses at Kusasenri, which was very cool. Overall, I highly recommend this tour!
