Passeios em Kumamoto Castle

I joined the tour on September 12th and want to thank our guide, Sun Peng. He is the best guide I've ever had on any KLOOK tour! He explained so much about Kumamoto to us with incredibly humorous, engaging, and clear communication. He also created a Line group, not only sharing pickup times and attraction information but also thoughtfully posting must-buy and must-eat recommendations. While we were exploring, we'd often see him moving among us, offering timely reminders and happily sharing stories about his past living in Kumamoto. There were Koreans, Japanese, and Westerners on the bus, and he diligently made sure everyone understood all the information. The driver's skills were also top-notch; even on mountain roads, we didn't feel dizzy. Although the weather was too good, preventing us from seeing the mysterious Kamishikimi Kumano-imasu Shrine, it truly felt like a perfect day. After returning, we ate at a ramen shop in Kumamoto Station that Sun, our guide, highly recommended. It made me love Kumamoto and Kumamon even more! Everything was fantastic, a huge thank you! ❤️🙏

Nosso guia turístico falava chinês, era muito simpático e profissional. Ela nos deu instruções claras e nos guiou durante toda a viagem, garantindo que chegássemos ao nosso passeio de barco a tempo. Eles também fizeram o possível para comprar os bilhetes do bonde ferroviário para nós, mas infelizmente, devido ao feriado público, não conseguiram. Apesar disso, foram incrivelmente atenciosos e até nos presentearam com um sachê de chá de cogumelo, alguns enfeites fofos e chocolates para levar para casa. 🥹❤️ Nosso guia também foi gentil o suficiente para recomendar algumas comidas locais para experimentarmos após o passeio, o que foi muito útil! No geral, estamos muito agradecidos pelo serviço maravilhoso e pelos gestos atenciosos. Isso tornou nossa experiência no desfiladeiro de Takachiho ainda mais memorável. ✨

Super convenient and great value! I took the Klook tour to 草千里, 阿蘇神社, and 黑川温泉, and it was super convenient with high CP value. For someone like me who wanted to leave the tour at 黑川温泉 for an overnight stay, the cost was similar to traveling independently — but I also got to visit 草千里 and 阿蘇神社. The guides Eva and 쭈쭈 were fantastic, taking care of English, Korean, and Chinese-speaking guests. Eva even helped call my ryokan to arrange luggage delivery before we arrived, making the trip comfortable and stress-free for my mum and me, she cannot walk long distances and we were carrying a 28-inch luggage. Highly recommended! p.s. don’t miss the beef skewer from the food stall nearby the 阿蘇神社, it tastes great!

Departing on September 9, 2026, our guide, Miyamoto, provided detailed explanations. Since Mount Aso was currently closed (due to a helicopter accident), our itinerary was changed to Aso Bousou Kugino Roadside Station, a rest stop with beautiful views of the Aso mountain range. Afterward, we visited Kamishikimi Kumanoza Shrine, which felt like being in a movie scene. We then arrived at Kusasenri for lunch, a vast grassland on the mountain with many horses and cows along the way, offering a very relaxing landscape. The final stop was Kurokawa Onsen, a charming and comfortable hot spring town, where we also enjoyed delicious cream puffs. The entire trip was well worth experiencing, and our guide welcomed everyone to Kumamoto. Most attractions have been open since the earthquake in July 2026, so visitors can come with peace of mind. God bless Kumamoto! Go Kumamoto!

This project is a highly valuable and worthwhile itinerary. I had originally read online that Kumamoto Castle might be closed for maintenance, but luckily, we were able to visit! The ginkgo and cherry trees were truly beautiful. The timing was just right; if you want to eat and shop, you need to move quickly and take fewer photos to have a chance to try everything. The tempura was incredibly delicious and a must-try; it was sold alongside the bear-shaped cakes, and both were tasty and adorable. Aso Volcano, however, was a shame... we couldn't visit due to a red alert, which was the only disappointment. Our tour guide mentioned that it's very rare for Aso Volcano to be on a green alert, and even they couldn't predict the timing. The scenery was truly beautiful. Oh, and definitely bring a windbreaker! We thought it wouldn't be cold, but we were absolutely freezing. You should also try the coffee, and if you want to experience buying a lucky bag in Japan, you can grab one. The lucky bags contain a selection of the store's key items, so if you don't want to pick out souvenirs, you can just buy a lucky bag; it has plenty of things to give as gifts! It's excellent value for money, though it did rain a few times and disrupted things. There's also a supermarket where you should definitely buy things if you can. The Aso Musume strawberries are very popular, but they are incredibly sweet and delicious, not sour at all, with a fragrant strawberry aroma. There are other varieties of strawberries too, and the prices are all fantastic!

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!

We joined the Miyazaki Takachiho Gorge exploration day tour from Fukuoka, and our guide, Summer, made it truly unforgettable. She was warm, knowledgeable, and kept everything running smoothly. Summer shared fascinating stories about the gorge’s legends and the local culture, plus great tips on where to take the best photos. The gorge itself is breathtaking – the emerald water, the waterfalls. Summer managed the timing perfectly, so we never felt rushed.

Our tour guide, Wang Qi, was excellent. He helped us find the best spots for photos and patiently took many pictures for each group. It was a shame that it rained on the day we went and Mount Aso was recently closed, but Takachiho and Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu Shrine were both wonderful.

O projeto arquitetônico do Castelo de Kumamoto é muito notável, tirei muitas fotos de diferentes ângulos, e cada um deles revela detalhes. Estava ansioso para ver a cratera do Monte Aso, mas infelizmente havia um alerta vermelho desta vez, então só pude observar o vulcão soltando fumaça preta de longe. Começou a chover em Kusasenri, que é um lugar muito agradável, com vastas áreas verdes que são muito terapêuticas. Os cavalos são muito robustos.
