Highly recommended! A wonderful introduction to Kyushu’s beauty, nature, history, culture, and scenery all in one trip. Thanks to Kevin, it was smooth, informative, and really enjoyable. If you’re in Fukuoka and want to see the best of Kyushu without planning it all yourself, this tour is a winner! ✅ Kevin was excellent from start to finish. Friendly, organized, and very knowledgeable, he explained history, culture, and little travel tips that made the day smoother. Speaking English, Chinese and Nihongo. He kept everyone on time without rushing, checked that we were comfortable, and was happy to answer every question. Truly made the trip more enjoyable! Thank you Kevin.

This was a tour I took with my parents. I was worried the schedule might be a bit too tight, but we were able to take our time exploring at a relaxed pace, and my parents had no trouble at all. In particular, our guide, Lee Hyang-yong, was truly exceptionally kind and gave fantastic explanations, making the tour even more satisfying. Our driver was also skilled, so we were able to travel without any motion sickness. Thanks to everyone, we were able to create wonderful memories. Highly recommended!

This day trip was really fun, and the entire itinerary was very well arranged! 😊 The first stop was Umi Jigoku (Sea Hell). The scenery was truly stunning, and seeing it in person was even more breathtaking than in the photos. Everywhere was great for taking pictures, and I easily got so many gorgeous shots! The second stop was the zoo, which turned out to be quite a pleasant surprise! Besides lions, tigers, giraffes, and camels, there were quite a few animals that are usually rarely seen. Some of them were even new to me, which felt very fresh and exciting. The animals were also very cute, and I had a great time watching them! Finally, we went to Yufuin. It is a really lively place with many unique little shops and all kinds of snacks. You can walk and eat along the way while slowly soaking in the atmosphere of a small Japanese town—so much fun! Additionally, I really have to give a special shout-out to our tour guide, Jimmy Ryu-san! He was enthusiastic, friendly, and attentive. He explained the whole itinerary very clearly, reminding us in advance about meeting times, boarding locations, and where the restrooms were, which gave us great peace of mind. Along the way, he also shared interesting stories about life in Japan, making it feel like chatting with a friend so we were never bored! All in all, this was truly a very pleasant trip with great sights, excellent arrangements, and a very dedicated tour guide. If I have the chance again next time, I will definitely join! Highly recommended with five stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The tour guide was professional, smiling, and provided great service. Even though the tour was fully booked, the guide remained dedicated and tried their best to help everyone. The driver drove very smoothly. Initially, I thought visiting three locations in a day trip would be exhausting and rushed, but thankfully, three hours in Yufuin was enough. The parking spot was a short walk from Lake Kinrin, which saved a lot of time and legwork compared to walking from the station like most people do. I didn't get to finish walking down Yunotsubo Street—I probably only walked about halfway, but it was enough. I visited the Showa Museum and Floral Village that I wanted to see, took a photo with that white dog outside the art museum, and also had some snacks. I skipped many places with long lines for fear of running out of time. I thought the grilled shiitake mushrooms were quite delicious. The Kamado Jigoku (Boiling Hell) show was also good; they had hot spring eggs and ramune soda, and you could also soak your feet. Dazaifu was nice too; the buildings were beautiful, the courtyard was lovely, and there were many very tall trees.

We had an amazing experience with our tour guide Lisa! She brought us to Dazaifu Shrine, Beppu Hell Hot Springs and Yufuin Village, making the entire journey enjoyable and memorable. Lisa was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and approachable. She shared interesting insights about each destination and made sure we had a wonderful experience throughout the trip. What impressed us even more was how she went the extra mile by recommending other places to visit and restaurants to try during our remaining days in Fukuoka. Highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a thoughtful tour guide in Fukuoka. Thank you, Lisa, for making our trip so memorable!

The pacing of this tour is just right for me. Ample time per destination. I was initially worried we would be rushed at Yufuin Village but for me I was able to really roam around. Our tourguide is Nicole Yang and she was fluent in both English & Mandarin. Easy to understand and very helpful + friendly.

Traveling with the tour was very convenient. The guide took good care of us and provided great recommendations, allowing us to visit a variety of places in just one day. For those who prefer not to rent a car and drive, having 2 hours at the Takachiho Gorge, including the round-trip walk, was more than enough time. In the afternoon, we visited Mt. Aso. Even though the crater was closed, we were able to see the views up close at two different spots. Kusasenri offered beautiful scenery, though 1 hour might be a bit tight for sightseeing, having a meal, and shopping for souvenirs. Overall, it was a very worthwhile and convenient experience with everything covered, including a stop at a service area along the way.

It was a truly impressive trip. I was the only English speaker, but the guide. Zhu Zhu, took good care of me, ensuring I fully understood everything about the tour. The experience far exceeded my expectations.

Be ready to count your steps here! Nature vibes and a little bit of downhill/uphill walk. Still, the view was worth it ✨️❤️ Would recommend to book with lunch. We didn't expect it to have such quality meat for the price. It was really a surprise, glad we availed it 😊
