[Kyushu ︱ Almoço de barco em Miyazaki com carne bovina] Excursão de um dia pelas gargantas de Takachiho, vulcão Aso e Kusasenri (partida de Fukuoka)

A perfect nature trip to Kyushu, thanks to our guide Nanami! We just finished our trip to Kumamoto and Miyazaki, and I can't wait to write this glowing review. The itinerary for this tour group was wonderfully designed, perfectly combining natural wonders with cultural experiences. In Aso, we saw one of the world's largest active volcanoes, and the feeling of the Earth's pulse was unforgettable; we walked on the vast grasslands of Kusasenri, experiencing a completely different sense of openness and tranquility; and the boat ride through Takachiho Gorge was the highlight of the entire trip, as if we had entered a mythical world. The "soul" of all these wonderful experiences was none other than our guide, Nanami. She is a very professional and passionate person: 1. Knowledgeable: She knows the history and culture of Kyushu, its geological formations, and local specialties like the back of her hand, explaining everything in a lively and interesting way. She helped us not only see the scenery but also understand the stories behind it. 2. Bilingual Communication: There were many foreign friends in the group, and she served everyone throughout the trip in fluent Chinese and English, taking care of every member. Communication was completely barrier-free, which was very thoughtful. 3. Warm and Attentive: She always had a bright smile, carefully looked after the elderly and children in the group, and helped everyone solve various problems, just like a reliable older sister. Because of Nanami, this trip was full of warmth and memories. I highly recommend it to friends planning a trip to Kyushu! I look forward to meeting her again on our next trip.

We had a wonderful time on this tour! Everything was well organized, and we really enjoyed the experience from start to finish. Our guide, Ella, was very helpful and friendly. She made sure everyone was comfortable, shared interesting information throughout the trip, and was always happy to answer our questions. Lunch was great. Although it took a lot of time to reach each destination, it was totally worth it.

The trip was good, but unfortunately it was raining. However, the itinerary was well planned, but a little short of places to visit besides the gorge and Mt Aso. Minna, our tour guide, was good at explaining the locations in both languages. Thanks, Minna, for the guidance and our driver for a safe journey.

We thoroughly enjoyed the Klook day tour to Takachiho Gorge & Mt. Aso. Despite the crowded 8:00 AM meeting point, clear instructions helped us find our excellent guide, Sun Nan, who shared great local insights. Takachiho Gorge was stunning, enhanced by the remaining autumn leaves, and the 30-minute self-rowing boat ride was a fun highlight. While the included beef lunch was standard, we were lucky to have access to the impressive Mt. Aso volcano crater for photos. Kusasenri was mainly a relaxing stop for souvenirs and trying the excellent ice cream, as the grassland was off-season. Note: Due to the distance from Hakata station, the journey is long, resulting in a late return around 6:45 PM. Highly recommend this tour for its amazing natural sights, but be prepared for a full day of travel.

I was the only Thai person on this trip. Our guide, Emily, took great care of me, so I wasn't worried at all about my first solo tour. Luckily, it was sunny. Takachiho Gorge and the waterfall were beautiful, and the area around Mount Aso was stunning, with an atmosphere like something out of a movie. Highly recommended! 💛 P.S. In December, you should bring the warmest winter gear possible!

¡Vale la pena el viaje en autobús de 3 horas de ida! Hermosas vistas y un recorrido fluido y bien organizado. El desfiladero de Takachiho era impresionante, la llanura de Kusasenri era serena y poder ver de cerca el cráter del monte Nakadake fue realmente memorable. La experiencia fue relajante y especial. Un agradecimiento especial a Emily, nuestra guía, cuyo trato amable, explicaciones claras y genuino interés hicieron el viaje aún mejor. ¡Altamente recomendado!

Takachiho Gorge is truly beautiful! Taking a boat into the gorge is definitely worth it, though it means less time for taking photos from the shore. Every spot along the walk to the restaurant offers stunning photo opportunities; you can snap pictures that look just like those found on Google. It's especially worthwhile during the autumn foliage season. Lunch was also delicious and great value for money! I'd love to visit again next time and spend a whole day leisurely at Takachiho Gorge. The chance of Aso Volcano being fully open is 50%, and we were lucky enough to visit the closest viewpoint to the crater that day, which made me feel very happy and fortunate. But remember to bring windproof warm clothing; I almost froze in those ten minutes! Our guide, Ella, worked very hard to take care of every one of us in the group. Thank you for your hard work all day!

Highly recommended to take this one-day tour, for the good location pick. Special thanks to the tour guide, Mrs. Ella, even though her English speaking isn't that good, she tried her best. This one-day tour is highly recommended; the scenery is incredibly beautiful. The scenery alone made waking up at 5:45 AM feel worth it. Special thanks to tour guide Ms. Duan.

Our trip was simply fantastic! Right from the start, we quickly got to know our travel group and our wonderful companions, Helen and Elli. Both were super dedicated, friendly, and always there for us – they showed us a lot, explained everything, and made the trip a real experience. We saw and experienced so much: The boat trip was dreamy, the excursion to the volcano unforgettable with a great view, and lunch was really delicious. Everything was perfectly organized, smooth, and planned with great attention to detail. We can truly recommend this tour to everyone – everything was perfect, and we're taking many beautiful memories with us. Many thanks to Helen, Elli, and the entire team for this all-around successful trip!

Excellent tour guide & rich itinerary, it was a satisfying experience. The itinerary with only 3 attractions was already very rich. Our guide, Xiao Shuai, not only explained things very clearly and helped with taking photos, but also shared a lot of information about Takachiho Gorge and Mount Aso. This allowed travelers to better understand the journey, not just take pictures and check in. I recommend signing up for the boat ride to admire Takachiho Gorge up close; the scenery is superb when the sun is out. Mount Aso happened to be fully open today, and with the great weather, we could clearly see the crater. Kusasenri has a large grassland where you can take photos with cows and horses. We saw many families having a wonderful time. There's an Aso Volcano Museum nearby, but unfortunately, we didn't have enough time to visit. Finally, we went to a coffee shop for coffee, ice cream, and to buy small souvenirs. Although it wasn't autumn foliage season yet, the scenery along the way was beautiful, making it well worth the trip! Transportation arrangement: Convenient meeting point, safe and smooth journey throughout. Tour guide: Clear Mandarin explanation, rich information, and thoughtful care. Meal arrangement: The taste wasn't the best, but the environment and cleanliness were satisfactory. Itinerary arrangement: Excellent attractions, all arrangements were very smooth. Very suitable for different people, especially solo travelers. This price includes transportation, meals, and a boat ride – great value!
