Ting å gjøre i Mojiko port

Vår turguide, Sun Nan, er veldig høflig og snill. Han tok oss med på dagsturen til Mojiko, og ga oss gode tips om hvor vi kunne få tak i god sashimi på fiskemarkedet. Vi nøt også en liten båttur over for å besøke fiskemarkedet. Maten var fersk og deilig. Etterpå ble vi tatt med til et outlet-område hvor vi klarte å finne mange gode japanske merker til en god pris, pluss en bonus i form av en Ultraman-utstilling som for tiden vises. Til slutt dro vi til Sakakurayama for en fantastisk kveldsutsikt med taubane, noe som virkelig avsluttet dagen vår på en vakker måte.

This tour includes a total of 3 attractions. The distances between them are quite far, making for a long drive and a slightly tiring experience. The seafood at the Karato Market was fresh and reasonably priced, and we really enjoyed the meal. Each piece of sushi cost around 200 to 600 Japanese yen, and seafood rice bowls with mixed seafood or salmon roe were available for 1,000 to 2,000 yen. The indoor dining area on the second floor requires a fee of 300 yen per person. Finally, regarding the night view from Mount Sarakura, the weather was not very good; it was very foggy and we couldn't see anything. Fortunately, the fog cleared up a bit when we took the cable car back down, providing a perfect ending with the night view. There is a panoramic restaurant on the second floor of the mountain, but seating is limited. As soon as the cable car arrives, you need to hurry and place your order; otherwise, once the seats are full, they stop taking orders. The restaurant only has about 12 tables, and due to a shortage of staff, the food is served very slowly, so you need to keep an eye on your return transportation time. Our tour leader, Ms. Yang Meng, was very friendly and shared a lot of useful information.

This was a relaxing and happy trip for me and my family. Throughout the journey, we used the mobile app's descriptions and guided assistance, eliminating the need for a live tour guide. The tour bus driver reminded us to check in using our mobile phones, safely guided us to each attraction, and welcomed us politely. We could use the mobile app to record meeting locations and times, as well as view introductions to each attraction, including local food, shopping, and entertainment highlights. The mobile app also notified us of gathering times and provided clear map directions, ensuring we smoothly returned to the tour bus every time. There was no need to rent a car for Northern Kyushu; this time, the timing and itinerary arrangement with memo trip were excellent. Furthermore, the travel times were not too long, allowing us to rest on the tour bus between attractions, so we didn't feel exhausted even when touring into the evening. Back at the hotel at night, we could use the mobile app again to review the tour highlights, which deepened my understanding of the shrines. I experienced how a guide-free tour could create a sense of novelty while being completely safe and secure.

En dag full av interessante steder, forbered deg på en lang kjøretur... og ta med mat hvis du kan, massevis av det... Helligdommen er pen, men jeg elsker oppholdet ved Moriko Port. Dette er god valuta for pengene, takk Nicole for en godt organisert tur... engelsken din er god!

This is my first time join local tour. I have good experience on that. Because tour guides very nice, explain very clearly and detail on our tour. And always update and remind us important information through what app, pay attention on her customer service. I’m appreciate on her guide in this trip, I’m very enjoyable and very happy! This tour was very interesting and nice place for me to visit. I will recommend to everyone:)

Although this day tour only has 3 attractions, each of them has its own unique features and is well worth a visit. The sushi at Karato Market was fresh and delicious; we didn't go to the most famous shop because the queue was simply too long, but just randomly picked a nearby one and were already very satisfied, especially the fatty tuna, which melted in your mouth! We tried the pufferfish sashimi, which wasn't anything special. The rows of red torii gates at Motonosumi Shrine, paired with the blue sky, white clouds, and the endless sea, made me subconsciously take dozens of photos! Mount Sarakura at dusk and as the night lights begin to glow is truly enchanting! It's very suitable for photography enthusiasts, just make sure to reserve enough time for the round-trip cable car. The tour guide, Mr. Cheung, was very attentive; he always clearly stated the meeting times and reminded everyone when it was a good time to use the restroom. Explaining the itinerary and background information of the attractions along the way in English, Mandarin, and Japanese was effortless for him, definitely deserving of praise!

Vi ønsket virkelig å se Motonosumi-helligdommen. Den opprinnelige turen vi ønsket å bli med på, var imidlertid allerede full den dagen som var tilgjengelig for oss, så vi bestemte oss for å bestille denne turen. Lite visste vi at vi hadde bestilt en tur med en "kinesisk/japansk-talende turguide" selv om vi ikke snakker noen av de to språkene. Til tross for dette gjorde turguiden vår, Mr. Wang, sitt beste for å veilede oss ved hjelp av en oversettelsesapp. Den opprinnelige planen for turen var at vi skulle utforske Mojiko på egen hånd, deretter ta fergen til Karato fiskemarked, og turguiden ville møte oss der. Mr. Wang tilbød seg imidlertid å kjøre oss til fiskemarkedet med varebilen i stedet for fergen, slik at vi ikke skulle gå oss vill. Vi takket høflig nei til tilbudet hans fordi vi ønsket å oppleve å ta fergen. Vi følte virkelig hans oppriktige bekymring for oss. Vi er veldig fornøyde med denne turen. Takk, Mr. Wang!

Overall, the trip was good, but I wish we had more time to explore Mojiko. Since it was a weekend, Mount Sarakura was very crowded, with long queues. Unfortunately, we missed the sunset and reached the top when it was already dark, windy and freezing cold, so there wasn’t much to see. Our tour guide, Robin, was very nice and attentive and took good care of everyone throughout the trip.

We'd like to thank Mr. Kim for the excellent chartered car service. Not only did he provide great suggestions for our itinerary, but he also made timely adjustments based on our actual situation. We especially appreciate his thoughtful assistance with helping the elderly and children get in and out of the car, which allowed us to enjoy a pleasant day trip in Northern Kyushu.
