Hakata

Fukuoka's food was delicious, and the staff were happy to help. Overall, it was good value for money, and the city was vibrant. The attractions I visited were very conveniently located and quite interesting. I hope to have a holiday at the end of the year to visit Fukuoka and other prefectures.

The flight from Osaka to Hakata is direct, takes just over two hours, has comfortable seats, affordable fares, and frequent departures. If you have large luggage, it's easy to reserve a seat at the counter or at the airport on the same day; just follow the signs.

I highly recommend this tour. Our guide, Xiao Li, is fluent in English, Japanese, and Mandarin. The tour involves many ups and downs of stairs, so please assess your physical condition accordingly. Especially the second stop, Takachiho; I booked a tour including lunch, and the restaurant arranged transportation back. Otherwise, group members would have to walk up the mountain back to the starting point, which I imagine would be very tiring.

There were 16 people on this trip. Everyone gathered on time and even set off early. We were lucky to have a tour guide, Xiao Liu, who explained the itinerary on the bus and took photos for us after we got off. The only regret was that we couldn't drive into the gate of the Kukuya Hotel because the waves were a bit too big.

This day trip to Moji Port, Motonosumi Shrine, and the Sarakurayama Ropeway in Kyushu was quite convenient overall, especially when the attractions are far apart and transportation is difficult to plan independently. It's perfect for joining a day tour. You can nap on the bus and take photos when you get off, without worrying about driving, transferring, or parking – very easy for travelers. Moji Port retains its century-old Taisho-era romantic atmosphere, making it a charming old-world port town. The architecture and street scenes are very photogenic and definitely worth a stop. Motonosumi Shrine wasn't as breathtaking as the photos suggest, but on a clear day, the seaside view is still great for photos and strolls. The Sarakurayama Ropeway was a bit of a disappointment. Transportation was inconvenient, the ride and waiting time were long, and the scenery at the top was rather ordinary, making it not very cost-effective overall. If there's room for future itinerary adjustments, I would suggest replacing Sarakurayama with other more unique and enriching attractions. The downside of a day tour is the shorter time spent at each attraction, requiring more punctuality and precise time management. Sometimes, it can feel like there's not enough time for taking photos or shopping. I recommend buying lunch in advance at a convenience store and having a quick bite during the journey or in between, saving time spent searching for restaurants and waiting for food, thus allowing more time for sightseeing. Special thanks to our guide, Hedy, who was incredibly kind and patient. Her attentive guidance and friendly demeanor made the entire trip more comfortable and enjoyable. I hope to have the opportunity to participate in other tours led by her in the future!

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.

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!

It was a very unique experience; booking tickets using KKDay was very convenient.

The travel time was quite long, probably 6-7 hours in total, but I slept most of the time, so I didn't feel it much. The longest stretch was the last leg from Ten'yangu Temple back to Fukuoka, about 3 hours one way, with only one rest stop. People with bladder problems might want to consider this (a little tip: eat some mochi, bean daifuku, or honey cake before the journey; they're sold at Lawson convenience stores at the departure point, and it can effectively relieve the urge to urinate). Our tour leader, Koishi, was very friendly and dedicated, providing explanations and translations in Chinese, English, and Japanese. He also helped take photos along the way. Overall, I was very satisfied. Although we didn't spend too much time at each attraction, honestly, there's not much to see if you stay too long in those places anyway—the trees, water, and rocks are all the same. The first five minutes after arrival are beautiful, but afterwards they all look the same. Still, it's quite worth the trip.

I would definitely repurchase this; the experience was extremely smooth! It's cheap and convenient.
