Having the Camellia cruise ship makes it so convenient to visit Japan and South Korea all at once. The boarding signs are very clear, and you can quickly exit the country and board the ship. The scenery at the departure port is also incredibly beautiful. It was a truly unforgettable trip.
The whole trip was enjoyable, though the rain was a bit of a disappointment. However, the tour guide was professional and enthusiastic, the tour bus was comfortable, Lake Kinrin was beautiful, and Kyushu Zoo is a great place to take children. Taking the park's shuttle bus would have made it even more fun. I would definitely go again next time.
We were 7 adults and 1 child with 8 luggages, and we got a very comfortable 20-seater minibus. The driver also kindly told us how to get to the waiting area after leaving the airport. We will call this airport shuttle again next time!
I bought it at a discount. Although the trip was a bit short (about 20 minutes), the boat crew was mostly Japanese, so the boatman's explanations were mostly in Japanese, with only a few simple Chinese words. It seems unavoidable, but if I were to go with a foreigner next time, I'd probably hear the English explanations and perhaps learn more about Yanagawa's history. There was a boat jumping show and singing, and it was like a ninja's heart. Bringing the elderly here might actually be a plus, as the shorter trip was a good option, so we could quickly explore the surrounding Yanagawa area afterward.
