Kitakyushu: Akiyoshido-grotten, Motonosumi Inari-helligdommen og Tsunoshima-broen – dagstur (fra Fukuoka)

Best day tour ever. Our tour guide Sun was so friendly and easy to talk. He explained everything about the places we visited even recommended other places around Fukuoka. He is such a fun and cheerful person. I’m so happy we met him. The places we visited were beautiful. Motonosumi Shrine was my dream to see it, and it didn’t disappoint. The other places were also amazing especially the Tsunoshima bridge. I highly recommend this day tour. It was perfectly organized.

The guide was helpful, cheerful and informative. Her explanation in both English and Mandarin were very clear. She even recommended us food to try at Hakata. The 92 red torri gates were beautiful. The bridge that runs above the sea was beautiful but too bad that we could only enjoy the view on the bus.

The cave was really impressive to see - the rock formations are all unique and you can hear little descriptions for some areas with machines they have in the cave. We took the descending path, so when you exit you can have some food and look at the trinkets they sell there. The view of the ocean at Motonosumi Inari shrine was really impressive. Unfortunately I went on the weekend so we were unable to go through. Tsunoshima is gorgeous - you really have to see it with your own eyes as the colour is quite hard to see on camera. This trip covers a very large area so there's a lot of transport time in between but the driver did a good job getting us to places quickly and smoothly. It would have been really difficult to get to these locations on my own. Our guide Cico was very knowledgeable and helped people take photos. Great experience!

the cave is something that you definitely have to experience in person for yourself! impressive sight. also, do try the burdock noodles right outside the cave! it was the best thing i ate on my trip. the view of the sea was more stunning than the torii gates imo, and the bridge wasnt too special. my guide was helpful and offered to help take photos, and seemed like a nice person, which i really do appreciate. however, it was hard to find the tour group at the gathering point and you have to ask around to find your guide. it also felt like the guide was overwhelmed by the large tour group size, especially when guide’s chinese is noticeably better than english. i could understand both languages, so it was clear when some info wasnt mentioned in english, and i felt bad for the english-only speakers on the tour.

As a solo traveller I am happy to join this tour as I was able to go to places that are difficult to reach if you don’t have a car. The van is spacious, tour guide speaks English and Chinese and follows time strictly. Our guide Ella explains each places that we went through. She also serves as photographer and making sure that all participants are accounted for.

Akiyoshidō Cave was fascinating, especially as it was my kids’ first cave visit — the formations inside are impressive. It drizzled at Motonosumi Inari Shrine, but the coastal views were still lovely. We were lucky to catch sunshine at Tsunoshima Bridge, with magnificent views and jade-coloured waters. The guide was friendly and made the day enjoyable. Do remember to check the weather forecast, as it can really affect the experience.

It’s not a common route, so there were less people on our tour. Perfect for people who want to get away from the over-crowded tourist spots near fukuoka (takachiho/beppu tours) and not sure where else to visit on a free day. Highly recommended tour, as our tour guide Edward was very professional and gave detailed explanation about the destinations’ - some fun facts, some historical knowledge, and some chemistry knowledge.

5/5 – Amazing Tour with Sun! My friends and I had such a great experience on this tour thanks to our guide, Sun. From the moment the tour started, he was friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly easy to follow. Sun explained the history and and facts about each destination on the itinerary in a way that was both interesting and fun, and he always made sure everyone felt comfortable and included. He also went above and beyond — giving great local recommendations, helping with photos, and answering all our random questions with patience. All of our good group photos were taken by him! If you’re visiting Japan and want a guide who’s kind, organized, and passionate, I highly recommend Sun. This tour was definitely a highlight of my trip!

I had a great time on this trip with people/tourists across different languages and countries. greatly appreciate our tour guide Jyo who had been very cheerful throughout and guided the group at every step. The timing was perfectly maintained and overall highly recommend this trip

awesome experience. some places are hard to get to, so with this tour it helps to lighten the load of my mind. Remember to bring a jacket for the cave experience. a lot of hills to climb, remember bring comfy shoes.
