Itoshima

The trip was relaxing, the scenery was beautiful, the seafood was fresh, and the whole trip was chill. Our tour guide, Xiao Zhou, took photos for everyone, which was really great.

Following KK Day was so convenient; I didn't have to take any transportation myself. 😌 The itinerary was great! 👍 Shiraishi Waterfall is small, but nice for taking photos. Itoshima is beautiful! 🤩 The white bird area is very special and definitely worth visiting. The last stop was Dazaifu and Tenmangu Shrine. A perfect day.

Our tour guide, Eric, meticulously explained the surrounding attractions and took care of each member's needs. Before the tour ended, he even recommended local restaurants. Joining this tour was more comfortable than a self-driving tour, as we could visit many attractions and even sleep in the car. This was during the off-season; the scenery would be absolutely stunning during the autumn foliage season.

This trip, conducted during a heavy rain, happened to involve mostly water activities. The scenery at the Itoshima attractions was quite different from what I usually see (a yellowish-blue hue)... We ate at the Ichiran Ramen factory, a must-try ramen experience. Our guide, Mr. Yang, had made a reservation in advance, which caused a minor hiccup, but everything went smoothly, and we ate ramen before noon. The most regrettable thing was that it took over three hours to reach Yanagawa. We were originally supposed to catch the boat as planned, but the water level rose so high that the trip was canceled. We got a refund for the boat ticket, and could only use the restroom and buy some souvenirs... The good thing is that the next stop is Dazaifu, so we have more time to leisurely stroll around and buy snacks, such as ume-ga mochi... We arrived back at Hakata Station an hour early.

Our tour leader, Xiao Cui, provided excellent service! However, due to the bad weather and the fact that many attractions involved walking, the itinerary wasn't suitable for older travelers. There were also many mosquitoes and slippery areas; some of the attractions could have been replaced.

Thanks to the customer service team and Mr. Liu for their hard work. The customer service team responded quickly and confirmed the itinerary several times before departure. The all-inclusive price was very clear. Even though the weather was bad on the day and we had to change the itinerary, Mr. Liu was very cooperative. He not only introduced the attractions along the way, but also drove very smoothly and comfortably. The overall service made us feel at ease. It will be our first choice for car rental in Kyushu next time!

This time, I joined a KKday tour mainly to save time on transportation. The one-day tour included a convenient bus service throughout the trip, and the bus was comfortable and easy to ride. The morning meeting time wasn't too early, and there were several rest stops along the way, so the journeys weren't too long. The weather was great this time, making the whole trip very comfortable. Our guide, Nicky, was also very nice and attentive, taking photos for everyone and looking after solo travelers. Besides enjoying some natural scenery, we also visited ancient temples and gardens. Finally, if the weather is good, we went up to Fukuoka Tower for a nice view.

The itinerary was well-planned, with ample time, making it a very enjoyable trip. All attractions had comfortable restrooms, and the tour guide provided clear and detailed explanations. Thank you to the Fukuoka government for the buy-one-get-one-free tourism subsidy!
