Tekemistä paikassa Kumamoto Prefecture

Tämä on ensimmäinen kerta, kun tutkimme Fukuokaamme, ja meillä on mahtava kokemus Mount Ason, Kusasenrin ja upean Takachiho-rotkon vierailusta. Haluamme myös kiittää erittäin kokenutta matkaopastamme, Ada Wongia, siitä, että hän oli niin avulias ja ammattitaitoinen koko päivän kestäneen kiertueen ajan. Tarkistamme ehkä Klookin matkatarjoukset seuraavalla perhelomamatkallamme. Kiitos vielä kerran Klook!

Tour guide Ms. Kong was humorous, engaging, and very knowledgeable about local customs and traditions. The driver was extremely polite and friendly, and greeted every passenger each time we got off the bus! Everything has returned to normal following the Kumamoto earthquakes! Sightseeing and tourism are completely fine, there aren't many tourists, and the attractions are very pleasant to walk around. Joining a day tour when traveling independently allows you to visit many places that are inconvenient to reach by public transportation! The itinerary was Aso Kusasenri -> Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu Shrine -> Takachiho Torokko Train -> Takachiho Gorge stroll. The Takachiho Torokko Train requires an additional payment of 2,300 yen per person! The weather was still quite hot in late October, so everything was lush and green, but the local scenery was great to see! Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu Shrine was my absolute favorite—it has such an amazing atmosphere!

Saavuimme etuajassa Kumamoton aseman Shinkansen-länsisisäänkäynnille. Matkaoppaamme Sun Peng tuli paikalle kokoamaan ryhmän. Koska meillä oli matkatavarat mukana ja tarkoituksena jäädä pois ryhmästä Kurokawassa, opas kysyi oma-aloitteisesti, olemmeko sopineet kuljetuksesta hotellin kanssa. Vaikka olisimme voineet hoitaa asian itse, opas auttoi meitä ottamaan yhteyttä hotelliin. Koska Kurokawassa on useita pysäköintialueita, meidän turistien olisi luultavasti ollut vaikea sopia noutopaikasta selkeästi hotellin kanssa. Iso kiitos oppaan tarkkaavaisuudesta! Päivä oli täysin aurinkoinen ja jokaisesta nähtävyydestä sai upeita valokuvia. Turistin näkökulmasta kokemus oli todella hyvä. Opas Sun auttoi myös valokuvaamisessa, selitti nähtävyyksiä hauskasti ja humoristisesti, piti meistä hyvää huolta ja muistutti etukäteen kaikista tärkeistä asioista. Tämä retki on loistava valinta päiväretkeksi, paljon helpompi kuin oman matkan suunnittelu ja toteutus. Voin sumpitella lämpimästi!

It was a wonderful schedule, but the weather~ ㅠㅠ It rained a lot. Still, it was okay to enjoy the scenery. It's a shame that the fog was so dense we couldn't see the grasslands of Kusasenri or the smoke from the Aso crater at all. The stairway leading up to Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu Shrine had a mystical atmosphere, and the scenery seen from the Amaterasu mini-train while wearing raincoats in the rain was nice, but... considering the high price, it was just so-so~~ Finally, Takachiho Gorge was truly wonderful. The scenery is breathtaking enough to make you exclaim. The forest path beside the gorge was great, and the espresso coffee at the cafe at the end of the path was also lovely. Our lovely Chinese guide explained things very diligently.. but since I couldn't understand Chinese, I managed to get the gist of it through Google simultaneous interpretation. She told us the meeting places and times in English and Chinese. It would have been nice if she spoke a little Korean, too. Still, thank you for guiding us so diligently~ I highly recommend the tour. (It would be even better to skip the train and give us more time at the shrine.)

A perfect nature tour of Kyushu, thanks to our guide, Nanami! I just finished my trip to Kumamoto and Miyazaki and couldn't wait to write this glowing review. The itinerary for this tour group was exceptionally well-designed, perfectly blending natural wonders with cultural experiences. In Aso, we witnessed one of the world's largest active volcanoes, an unforgettable experience of the Earth's pulse. We strolled across the vast grasslands of Kusasenri, feeling a unique sense of openness and tranquility. The boat ride through Takachiho Gorge was the highlight of the entire trip, making us feel as if we had stepped into a mythical world. The 'soul' of all these wonderful experiences was undoubtedly our guide, Nanami. She is incredibly professional and passionate: 1. Knowledgeable: She knows Kyushu's history, culture, geological formations, and local specialties like the back of her hand. Her explanations were vivid and engaging, allowing us not just to see the scenery but to understand the stories behind it. 2. Bilingual Communication: Our group had many international friends, and she served everyone throughout the trip with fluent Chinese and English, ensuring seamless communication and taking care of every member. It was very thoughtful. 3. Warm and Attentive: She always had a radiant smile, carefully looked after the elderly and children in the group, and helped everyone solve various problems, just like a reliable older sister. Thanks to Nanami, this journey was filled with warmth and cherished memories. I highly recommend it to anyone planning a trip to Kyushu! I hope to meet her again on my next trip.

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!

The guide could only speak Japanese and English, but we were able to talk to be each other via translation apps. He also had updates and messages for the English speakers ready in every stop (for timeline, return times per location, and info). we rode a bus, and it was comfy. each location was really nice! although we couldn't really stay too long, which is too bad, but understandable since it's so far away. I was still so happy to be able to visit all these places, and I knew being able to go here on my own (without the tour) would've been very diffifuclt if 8 didn't have a car). All of the places we went to were great, and also wanted to note we had bathroom breaks both going to and from the locations.

This experience was wonderful, we were able to catch dolphins diving and the captain of the boat would drive around until we’d find dolphins. Great for wildlife photography and a new experience!

Kävin Kumamoton linnassa toisen kerran! Kuten odotettua, se oli suuri ja upea, kuten yksi Japanin kolmesta kuuluisimmasta linnasta! Muutama vuosi sitten Kumamotossa tapahtuneen suuren maanjäristyksen vuoksi osa linnasta tuhoutui, ja korjaustyöt ovat edelleen käynnissä, mutta turistina linnan kiertämisessä ei ollut mitään ongelmia! Suosittelen ehdottomasti ostamaan pääsyliput etukäteen Klookista! Sisäänkäynnillä on erilliset jonot lippujen ostajille ja ennakkoon ostetuille lipuille. Kun näytät QR-koodin henkilökunnalle, pääset sisään heti, mikä lyhentää odotusaikaa huomattavasti!
