Čo robiť v THE OUTLETS KITAKYUSHU

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.

Náš sprievodca Sun Nan bol veľmi zdvorilý a milý, keď nás vzal na náš denný výlet do Mojiko, kde nám dal dobrý tip, kde si môžeme kúpiť dobré sashimi na rybom trhu. Užívali sme si aj našu malú plavbu loďou cez rieku, aby sme navštívili rybí trh. Jedlo bolo čerstvé a chutné. Následne sme boli odvezení do outletovej štvrte, kde sa nám podarilo získať mnoho dobrých japonských značiek za dobrú cenu a navyše bonus vidieť výstavu Ultramana, ktorá je momentálne vystavená. Nakoniec sme išli do Sakakurayama na našu úžasnú nočnú prehliadku lanovkou, ktorá skutočne zakončila náš deň krásnym záverom výletu.

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.

Xiao Cai Mao vynakladá veľké úsilie na starostlivosť o svojich zverencov. Robí všetko pre to, aby jej hostia mali dobré zážitky. Komunikuje so svojimi hosťami. Itinerár nemá dlhé cestovné vzdialenosti medzi pamiatkami, približne hodinu medzi nimi. Outletové nákupy sú dobré, možno by sa im dalo venovať trochu viac času.

this tour is probably one of my favorite. the observatory deck, the cave, the bridge! it’s full of itineraries! highly recommended! thank you to our tour guide Seki! She’s the best! Very entertaining, Seki explained everything in all languages!

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!

Deň plný zaujímavých miest, pripravte sa však na dlhú jazdu... a ak môžete, prineste si so sebou jedlo, veľa jedla... Svätyňa je pekná, ale ja som si zamiloval pobyt v prístave Moriko. Je to dobrá hodnota za peniaze, ďakujem Nicole za dobre zorganizovaný výlet... vaša angličtina je dobrá!

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.

Aké úžasné strávenie popoludnia! Skvele som sa s týmito dámami zabavil/a a dozvedel/a som sa niečo o japonskom jedle. Nemohli byť ústretovejšie a milšie. Veľmi pekne vám ďakujem za nezabudnuteľný a príjemný zážitok. Bol to jeden z vrcholov mojej cesty do Japonska!
