Mga bagay na dapat gawin sa Yufuin Floral Village

had a beautiful and amazing day visiting Yufuin, Beppu, Kinrin Lake, and Dazaifu! was the only English-speaking guest on the tour, while most of the other guests were part of the Chinese-speaking group. But thanks to our wonderful tour guide, Nana, I never felt left out or like I was on my own. Nana-san translated everything for me in English, took my phone number just in case I got or lost, made sure I had a comfy seat, and constantly checked that I was okay. She was so warm, funny, and genuinely thoughtful. She even reco a great place for ice cream at Honeybees! It honestly felt like I had my own little travel buddy for the day My fave part of the trip was Kinrin Lake. I was honestly amazed by how beautiful it was Beppu was also incredible. we couldn’t go on the Beppu Ropeway because of the weather, Dazaifu was under construction during my visit. Yufuin was probably the least enjoyable part for me because it felt quite touristy and crowded ended up having such a wonderful time.

Sa tingin ko, napakaganda ng pagsali sa one-day tour na ito. Bukod sa napakasulit ng buy-one-take-one, binigyan pa kami ng pasalubong sa huli. Sa totoo lang, ang pinakamahalaga para sa akin ay ang hindi na kailangang mag-alala sa transportasyon. Bukod pa rito, napakapropesyonal ng tour guide. Napakahusay niya sa Ingles. Mayroon din kaming mga dayuhang turista sa aming grupo, at ang tour guide ay mabilis na nakakapagpalit mula Chinese patungong Ingles. Bukod pa rito, napakasarap pakinggan ng kanyang Ingles. Ang tanging ikinalulungkot ko ay noong panahong iyon, dahil sa lindol o kung ano pa man, sarado ang buong lugar ng nagpapalutang na noodles kaya hindi kami nakakain doon. Mayroon ding mga miyembro ng grupo na nag-kayak, at dahil sa kakulangan sa oras, nahuli sila. Pero hinintay pa rin sila ng tour guide.

Napakaganda! May mga gabay na marunong mag-Korean, Japanese, Chinese, at English, at sila ay mabait at paulit-ulit sa pagbibigay ng impormasyon at paliwanag! Kapag may tanong ka, agad nilang sinasagot at detalyado sila! Nag-alala ako na kung hindi kasama ang tanghalian, hindi rin ako makakasakay sa libreng shuttle at kailangan kong kumain ng onigiri sa bus, ngunit maganda na may taxi shuttle (300 yen bawat tao) at puwede ring kumain sa mga restaurant malapit sa volcanic museum! Ngunit ang presyo ng pagkain sa restaurant ay halos pareho lang sa bulgogi na kasama sa tanghalian, kaya sa susunod ay kukunin ko na ang tanghalian.. hehe. Sa kabilang banda, sa restaurant sa tabi ng museo, maraming pagpipilian ng menu! Masarap din ang pagkain! Sikat daw ang karne ng kabayo at pulang baka, at masarap din daw ang kanin, kaya kumain kami ng wagyu donburi, horse meat yukhoe bibim, at ramen. Mahal ang wagyu donburi pero napakasarap! Hindi ko irerekomenda ang horse meat yukhoe bibimbap.. Masarap naman pero kapag pinaghalo ang kanin, sarsa, yukhoe, at hilaw na itlog, medyo nagiging malabnaw..? Kaya, masarap din ang ramen at ang kanin mismo! Mas maganda pa dahil unlimited ang miso soup at kanin! At masarap din ang milk soft serve ice cream at volcanic ash coffee sa ibaba... Nakakalungkot na halos hindi makita ang Kusasenri dahil sa fog, ngunit masarap na naamoy ko ang sulfur at napakasaya ng boat experience! Highly recommended ang boat! Sa kabuuan, marami akong inalala ngunit mahusay ang paggabay ng aming tour guide, walang aberya, at saktong-sakto ang oras kaya nagustuhan ko! Gagamitin ko ulit ito sa susunod! Gogotrip? Gogogo? Anyway.. masaya rin dahil ipinaliwanag nila ang kasaysayan at mga alamat!

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!

Very relaxed free and easy trip! Personally recommend to skip Beppu ropeway when it’s rainy weather because the scenery would be too foggy. Be mindful if you love taking photos because time might be insufficient for lunch. Our female tour guide “Zhang Qin” is very helpful, enthusiastic and friendly. She had provided us a lot of information and guidances in the trip and also food recommendations for us to explore in the upcoming days!

Ang tanawin ay napakaganda 😍 sumakay sa mini train, medyo masaya. Sa iyong pagbalik, tandaan na bigyang-pansin ang isang maliit na bulkan, mukha itong pudding 🍮 si Ning Ning ay naging napakabait at masigasig na tour guide. Mahal na mahal namin siya ❤️ siya ang nagpaganda sa aming paglalakbay.

We were very lucky to have good weather. Our tour leader, Ms. Liu Zhihong (Cico), contacted us via email the day before because we were joining the tour at the second stop, Kumamoto Castle, and confirmed she would help us get seats closer to the front. Today, both guides used all four languages (English, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) and explained everything very diligently. In addition, even though we had purchased our own Aso Boy train tickets for the return trip from Aso to Kumamoto, Guide Liu was very thoughtful. During a break in our free time, she first took us to confirm our train schedule before leading the rest of the group back. It was truly a wonderful trip, and we will definitely join again next time.

Maraming salamat sa aming tour guide na si 卓燕志 at sa aming driver na si 李. Napakahusay ng kanilang pagpaplano at koordinasyon sa buong road trip. Sa kabila ng masamang panahon at matinding trapiko, propesyonal nilang pinamahalaan ang iskedyul at tiniyak na nakarating kami sa lahat ng destinasyon sa tamang oras habang iniiwasan ang matinding pagsisikip ng trapiko hangga't maaari. Ito ay tunay na isang kamangha-mangha at kasiya-siyang karanasan sa paglilibot mula simula hanggang matapos. Lubos naming pinahahalagahan ang kanilang dedikasyon, karanasan, at natatanging serbisyo sa buong paglalakbay. 👏

Sumali kami sa Miyazaki Takachiho Gorge exploration day tour mula sa Fukuoka, at ang aming gabay na si Summer ay ginawa itong hindi malilimutan. Siya ay palakaibigan, maraming alam, at pinanatili ang maayos na takbo ng lahat. Nagbahagi si Summer ng mga kamangha-manghang kuwento tungkol sa mga alamat ng bangin at lokal na kultura, pati na rin ng magagandang tip kung saan kukuha ng pinakamagandang litrato. Napakaganda ng bangin mismo – ang kulay-emerald na tubig, ang mga talon. Perpektong pinamahalaan ni Summer ang oras, kaya hindi namin naramdaman na nagmamadali kami.
