I was lucky enough to get the Kyushu Rail Pass at a discounted price. It's convenient and lasts for a week. My family of three used it to redeem a 1500 AMU restaurant voucher for food and drinks in the Hakata Station shopping area, a Sarakurayama Ropeway ticket for the million-dollar night view, a Joyint bicycle ride around Moji and Shimonoseki, a Kokura Castle ticket for the castle garden, and a Kumamoto Metro Bus One-Day Pass for Kumamoto Castle, Jojuen Garden, Glover Garden, the Catholic Church, and the Megane Bridge. It's great value for money, and getting it at a discounted price saved us a lot on travel expenses. The Kumamoto Transportation Pass is a new facility introduced after August 6th. When redeeming it on August 13th, the Sakuramachi Bus counter on the 2nd floor didn't see the Rail Pass voucher, and it took a long time to confirm before we successfully exchanged it for a one-day pass, allowing us to make the most of it. I recommend checking the Rail Pass website before your trip to confirm the available facilities and maximize the value of the pass according to your itinerary! Highly recommended!
After purchasing at KKDAY, you can scan the QR code from your email at the self-service machine for entry. Staff will assist you if you encounter any problems. Although some say Kogura City is modernized, the elevators to different floors are convenient for elderly people and children. The interactive area on the first floor is also quite attractive to first-time visitors. Afterwards, you can relax in the café on the fifth floor.
