Hakata

Taiwanese citizens entering Japan still need to fill out the Visit Japan website (also available on paper). The registration counter staff will provide them, and there are also information at the ship's counter. This time, the dormitory-style sleeping area wasn't full, and it was comfortable to sleep in. The ship's rocking wasn't too bad, perfect for sleeping XD

The itinerary included meals, and there was no need to retrace the route, as it didn't require much leg strength from the elderly. They simply needed to follow the guide's instructions. The time and shopping were well-managed. The only downside was the risk of slipping during heavy rain; otherwise, there was nothing to complain about. The guide was fluent in Japanese and Mandarin, took good care of all the tourists, was very friendly, provided excellent explanations, and thoughtfully included time on signs and music during breaks. He also recommended restaurants in Fukuoka. He mentioned he really longed to experience life in Fukuoka. This talent should be given more responsibility and his salary increased. ***************************** This Fukuoka day trip was a very satisfying experience. The itinerary was very well designed, avoiding backtracking. The time and pace of shopping were perfectly managed, greatly reducing the physical burden on the elderly and allowing them to easily keep up. Although the heavy rain made some roads slippery and posed a slight risk of slipping, the overall itinerary and meal arrangements were still handled meticulously and thoughtfully, almost flawlessly. The tour guide's professional performance was a highlight of the trip. He was fluent in both Japanese and Mandarin, attentively caring for travelers from diverse backgrounds, and maintained a cheerful demeanor throughout, providing lively and engaging explanations. He demonstrated exceptional professionalism in details, such as proactively writing down meeting times on signs, playing music to remind group members after breaks, and generously sharing local Fukuoka culinary gems and recommended attractions. He even shared his love and longing for life in Fukuoka, his enthusiasm for his work truly touching. In conclusion, such a talented individual, possessing both strong language skills and meticulous service, is invaluable. I strongly recommend that the travel agency give him more responsibility and a raise to recognize the exceptional travel experience he provided. Thank you so much for your kindness and smiles 😊😁

Easy to access. Nice view and 1 complimentary photo for each visitor. Although I bought 1 photo, it is a bit over price.

Our tour leader, Xiao Shi, has excellent language skills. He explained the itinerary and local scenery in Chinese, English, and Japanese, and even took turns taking photos for everyone at the attractions! Although each itinerary only lasted about 1-2 hours (depending on the size of the attraction), the fact that there was a tour bus to pick us up and drop us off meant we didn't have to drive ourselves, which was really great!

I think I’ve taken 2-3 package tours and 6-7 independent trips to Fukuoka, but this trip remains the most satisfying one. I believe the reason is the coexistence of leisurely relaxation and the intensity of completing a mission. The Itoshima half-day tour purchased from My Real Tour exceeded my expectations, and Guide Kang Hee-ju was truly excellent. Thank you. Also, purchasing the 5-day Northern Kyushu Rail Pass allowed me to enjoy the small town tours that are currently trending, which was a great experience. I highly recommend the JR Pass, which is available for purchase by foreigners only. I was amazed and envious of how every small town in Japan has such unique and distinctive food. I even rode the notoriously expensive Shinkansen to my heart's content... Anyway, for five days, I traveled all over Northern Kyushu comfortably by train to my heart's content. Just in case, I bought a one-day subway pass, but unfortunately, I couldn't use up all the money. It was a shame; I could have used it better if I knew the geography a bit better. It would have been very useful in Tokyo, but since walking a long distance to my destination after taking the subway was a burden, I ended up using the bus instead... It seems you can't hide your age. Still, I used it twice, so I have no regrets. Thank you~~

The experience was great, and the tour guide was very friendly! Yufuin is a wonderful place to explore, and the Yufuin no Mori train experience was fantastic! The Tiffany blue of Beppu's "Sea Hell" is beautiful, and the adorable cow statues and delicious plum-shaped rice cakes at Dazaifu Temple were delightful.

This tourist-friendly discount plan is very easy to redeem. The trip from Okura to Hakata, while seatless, only takes 20 minutes, and the price is even cheaper than the Kagoshima main line. Highly recommended!
