Mga bagay na dapat gawin sa Yufu

Highly recommended tour! It is not one of those rushed bus tours where you just breeze through; it actually leaves you with free time to explore on your own (about two hours of free time in Yufuin, though it is so rich in things to do that it is actually worth staying three to four hours. On the other hand, the Umi Jigoku [Sea Hell] was just ordinary, so I docked a few points for the itinerary arrangement). Our tour guide, Eiichi, was very professional and struck just the right balance with the pacing of the commentary. Whenever he noticed people were getting tired, he would pause appropriately, and whenever he saw everyone was interested, he would share a bit more background story. There happened to be a mobility-impaired member in our group, and aside from proactively helping to load and unload the wheelchair, he managed the timing and group gathering very well, so we never felt like we were waiting too long for settling in. The fried chicken, Mentaiko bread, and matcha soft-serve ice cream he recommended were truly delicious!

An absolutely wonderful tour! The first stop was Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, with an 80-minute stay. It takes about half an hour to walk through the shrine grounds, where you can pray for good fortune or buy some lucky charms. The small street in front of the shrine has many great little shops; whether it's local snacks, souvenirs, the Sumikkogurashi specialty store, or the unique Starbucks, everything is very interesting and well worth spending some time exploring. Next was the Beppu Ropeway, with a 60-minute stop. The cable car ride up the mountain takes about 10 minutes, offering beautiful scenery along the way. It's a bit cooler at the top, so you should keep that in mind. When we went up, it happened to be foggy, so we couldn't see the view below, but walking along the mountain trails in the fog was still a lot of fun. We had nearly two hours in Yufuin. Starting from Lake Kinrin and slowly walking back, there are so many small shops to browse and shop at, as well as plenty of interesting snacks. Even though no lunch time was scheduled, eating and browsing our way through Yufuin turned out to be a fantastic experience. On the way back, we rode the Yufuin no Mori train. Although you can't see much of the scenery at night, it gives you more leisure time, and the seats on the train are more spacious, making it easy to use the restroom and much more comfortable to rest. It's a great choice.

Ito ay isang kasiya-siyang paglalakbay. Bagama't umuulan nang bahagya, hindi nito naapektuhan ang pangkalahatang ruta ng paglilibot. Napakalinaw ng paliwanag ng aming tour guide na si Yang Liu, at gumamit siya ng malaking karatula para sa oras ng pagtitipon, na napakalinaw. Sapat naman ang oras namin sa Yufuin, at nakabisita kami sa Owl Museum. Hindi ko inakala na napakaraming kuwago doon, at puwede pa naming hawakan ang mga ito at kumuha ng maraming litrato. Ito ay isang napakagandang karanasan. Pagkatapos, pumunta kami sa Beppu Kamado Jigoku, kung saan bawat isa sa amin ay nakakuha ng isang hot spring egg. Sumunod ay ang Dazaifu Tenmangu. Medyo masikip ang iskedyul, ngunit ang makapunta sa tatlong lugar sa loob ng isang araw ay nakakatugon sa kagustuhan ng mga turista na makakita ng maraming atraksyon sa limitadong oras. Sa pangkalahatan, mataas ang halaga nito at lubos na inirerekomenda.

we had a great time during this tour. Li was a great guide, making sure that everyone was involved and seemlessly switched languages for the guests. we had enough time to explore the areas. The lunch was also really good! Will love to go back to this area next time!

Sumama ako sa tour para makita ang Takachiho Gorge at Aso Kusasenri, at napakasarap ng aking karanasan. Napakahusay ng pagkakaplano ng tour. Ang aming gabay, si Sun, ay may sapat na kaalaman at propesyonal; binigyan niya kami ng magandang konteksto tungkol sa lugar at mahusay kaming ginabayan sa buong araw. Napakaganda ng bangin, at napakasaya ng karanasan sa bangka. Idinagdag ko rin ang lunch package sa huling minuto at natuwa ako na ginawa ko ito, dahil napakasarap ng pagkain. Nakakita pa kami ng mga kabayo sa Kusasenri, na napakaganda. Sa kabuuan, lubos kong inirerekomenda ang tour na ito!

We spotted tour guide Nana's flag first thing in the morning. She was sweet and extremely dedicated, and she didn't waste any time talking when it was time for us to rest and catch up on sleep! Her Mandarin and English were both fluent, so there were zero communication barriers. Since I easily get motion sick, I had added a note requesting a front-seat before joining the tour, and they saved a seat for me. The scenery along the entire way was truly gorgeous, and everywhere we went had a wonderful, comfortable energy. Because we joined the Takachiho Gorge boating activity, our schedule required precise timing. As soon as we arrived at Takachiho Gorge, Nana gave instructions on the meeting time and place for those not boating, and then rushed forward with the nine of us who were participating in the boating activity! It turns out that boating time is limited, and failing to return within the designated time results in extra fees charged by the boat rental shop! The boats are not the easiest to steer, but it is a lot of fun. I highly recommend trying it out if you aren't traveling with very young children or elderly family members—since you're already there, you might as well! I highly recommend this tour and am very grateful to our guide, Nana, for giving us such a wonderful day! By the way, the mango shaved ice has very poor value for the money, so skip it! The soft-serve ice cream should be worth a try, though!

Ang aming day tour sa Dazaifu, Yufuin, Kamado Jigoku, at Umi Jigoku ay isa sa mga highlight ng aming biyahe sa Japan. Ang itineraryo ay maayos ang pagkakaplano, binibigyan kami ng sapat na oras upang mag-explore, kumuha ng litrato, mamili, at lubos na mag-enjoy sa bawat hinto. Espesyal na pasasalamat sa aming tour guide, si Vivian, sa paggawa ng karanasan na mas di malilimutan. Nagbahagi siya ng mga kawili-wiling kuwento at makasaysayang impormasyon tungkol sa bawat lugar na aming binisita, na nagpahalaga sa amin sa bawat destinasyon sa mas malalim na antas. Ang kanyang mga tagubilin ay palaging malinaw, at mahusay niyang pinamahalaan ang iskedyul, tinitiyak na mayroon kaming sapat na libreng oras habang pinapanatili ang maayos na takbo ng tour. Si Vivian ay nagbigay din ng dagdag na pagsisikap sa pamamagitan ng pagrerekomenda ng mga lokal na specialty at mga pagkaing dapat subukan, na tumulong sa amin na masulit ang aming pagbisita. Ang kanyang pagiging palakaibigan, propesyonalismo, at tunay na pagmamalasakit sa bawat isa sa grupo ay nagpaganda at nagpagaan sa buong biyahe. Lubos na inirerekomenda para sa sinumang bumibisita sa Fukuoka at Beppu. Kung si Vivian ang inyong maging gabay, nasa mahusay kayong mga kamay!

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.
