Excursão de dia inteiro ao Zoológico Natural de Kyushu e Yufuin

The overall schedule was smooth and unhurried. 30 minutes for Umi Jigoku was fine, 2 hours was enough for the zoo, and only 15 minutes for Mount Yufu, just a quick stop for photos. Finally, 2 hours for Yufuin/Kinrinko Lake was perfect for photos and shopping. Luckily, we didn't take the zoo feeding car because seating is limited, you can't stand, not every animal can be fed, and photos don't turn out well; it would be more difficult in hot weather. We arrived a little after 12 PM, and the tour guide helped some group members buy a few feeding car tickets. It was better for us to tour by bus. I recommend sitting on the side behind the driver, as almost all the animals are on one side. Afterwards, we had free time to explore, where we could pet guinea pigs and see horses, monkeys, etc. Our tour guide, Xiao Wang, was very attentive, offering reminders, recommendations, and helping with photos. Thumbs up!

I am Korean. I chose this option because I wanted to spend more time at the safari. Choosing the 2-hour option was an excellent decision. Although I don't speak English well, our guide, ADA, kindly explained everything in English, so I didn't experience any inconvenience throughout the trip. There were quite a few Chinese visitors, but everyone was well-mannered and punctual, which made for a pleasant trip. If you come to Fukuoka, I highly recommend dedicating a day to visit the safari, Hell Onsen, and Yufuin.

The trip was so good. We went to the zoo in the morning and then to Umi Jigoku, seeing Mount Yufu on the way to Yufuin. Our guide Nicole Yang was very good at explaining and very helpful. She helped me take pictures since I am a solo traveler.

Yufuin is truly beautiful! We had the most amazing pork katsu udon, all thanks to our guide Jing's recommendation. Just get a queue number from the restaurant and use that time to explore Yufuin. We purposely chose a weekday in mid-December (strangely, almost all shops were closed) to go to the safari. Unfortunately, they had fewer jungle buses in operation, so we toured the safari in our coach. Remember to visit the petting zoo at the safari; they let you hold a guinea pig on your lap!

This is my first time leaving a review on Klook. I would like to thank Driver Chu for the pickup, drop-off, and wonderful explanations today. The entire trip was extremely comfortable and smooth. The allocated time for each attraction was just right: we had a relaxing stroll at the Sea Hell, and at the zoo, he guided us to the best photo spots for every single animal. The time spent in the small animal interaction zone was also very generous. Since Mount Yufu wasn't at its best due to the season, skipping through it quickly made complete sense. The time saved from Mount Yufu was instead allocated to shopping and buying souvenirs at Yufuin. To get such a high-quality experience at this price is truly value for money, and I highly recommend it!

30 minutes at Umi Jigoku was just right, not too rushed. The 2 hours at the zoo were excellent, with plenty of animal interaction time. The 1-hour safari on the tour bus was much better than a Jungle Car, and offered clearer views! We had 1 hour of free time in the petting zoo area, where we could feed the animals! 2 hours was perfect; other tour groups only get 90 minutes, so I specifically looked for this 2-hour tour, and it didn't disappoint! Finally, we went up to the Yufuin trailhead for photos, which was beautiful! We had 2 hours of free time in Yufuin. Since I was staying overnight at a Yufuin onsen hotel, I left my suitcase on the tour bus and picked it up at the last stop. This was quite perfect, except for the tour bus parking location. It was near Snoopy, and we weren't informed in advance, so I walked for 15 minutes to the hotel, which was very tiring.

Highly recommended! Tour guide Carson is warm and friendly, and actively helps take photos, as well as recommending attractions and food. He can also speak English, Cantonese, and Mandarin, making communication very easy! Carson arranged the schedule very well, and all group members were punctual without being late, which made the trip extremely smooth! Kyushu Safari Park... being able to view animals from the comfort of the tour bus with air conditioning is a true blessing for parents... haha! Yufuin is definitely worth visiting. The eel rice and croquettes recommended by Carson were delicious—a must-eat! It's a pity there were only 2 hours... not quite enough time to explore the entire Yunotsubo Street... I hope the itinerary can be arranged for 3 hours next time! I will join again next time!

Today's tour was truly enjoyable. I was worried when the weather was cloudy in the morning, but it gradually cleared up, allowing me to take many wonderful photos. We first visited Umi Jigoku (Sea Hell), then the safari, and finally Yufuincho Kawakami. Kodama Rikuto's explanations were perfect, and the English explanations were also very clear and easy to understand. He gave detailed explanations of Umi Jigoku, and at the safari, we even saw a cheetah, which he said usually stays mostly inside its enclosure. I was also very grateful that he sent separate KakaoTalk messages with detailed Korean explanations about the origins of Yufuincho Kawakami for Korean speakers. He was a truly wonderful guide. Thank you. Thank you for sending me a KakaoTalk message with your secret restaurant recommendation at the end. I won't tell anyone! 😆😆😆😆

The tour guide was excellent, and their explanations were very detailed. The time spent at each location was just right. The zoo itinerary, in particular, exceeded expectations. We didn't miss any large animals and even got better photos than from inside the cage car. Feeding the ponies was also delightful; their greedy expressions were absolutely charming. The cat house was quite wonderful too. The souvenir shop had many cute photos and plush toys for sale. It's just a pity that the autumn leaves at Kinrin Lake had already fallen, otherwise, it would have been even more perfect. As for the Yufuin itinerary, without the guide's explanations, we might have missed the entrance to the side streets and lost out on a great experience. The guide truly helped a lot. The only suggestion is that if we don't need to pre-purchase attraction tickets, it should be stated when booking. If Kinrin Lake had autumn leaves, an extra half an hour could be added to the Yufuin itinerary.

Participating in the 9/15 tour, tour guide Lily was very attentive all the way, explaining various facts about Fukuoka to us. She even drove the whole bus into the zoo to view large African animals. Having air conditioning and not having to rush for tickets early in the morning was fantastic! 🥰 I am a slower stroller, and overall, except for Yufuin at the end being too huge to finish exploring, the time for everything else was plenty. On the way there and back, because the drives were longer, we could recharge properly on the bus. It didn't feel too tiring after a whole day, making it very suitable for families with adults and children! 👍
