This itinerary included a trip to Yufuin, with a short ride on the Yufuin no Mori train, which I found quite fun. Women never have enough time to shop, and I also ate a lot of delicious food. Dazaifu is also a great place to explore. This trip is definitely worth visiting again. Our local Japanese guide, Eiichi, added us to a social media group the night before and provided us with information to prepare for the trip. The day's activities were well-planned, and he thoughtfully recommended local restaurants. He managed the time well, ensuring we returned to Hakata on time.
I felt it was a great deal because you can recoup the cost just by making a round trip within Kyushu. The payment method is also simple, making it very convenient to use.
This building, which recreates a Showa-era town, is located along Yunotsubo Street on the way to Kinrin Lake. I was truly amazed by the high level of accuracy in the recreation. People of that generation will definitely enjoy it. Yunotsubo Street is usually crowded with foreigners everywhere, but this place was empty.
We were lucky with the great weather; there was a bit of traffic, but it didn't delay our trip. Our guide, Xiao Liu, was very dedicated and responsible. The bus was packed, indicating it's a popular tour. The only downside was that the air conditioning wasn't quite enough, but with autumn approaching, this shouldn't be a problem.
Actually, these attractions are all very beautiful, comfortable, classic, and energizing places, worth spending half a day or a full day visiting. However, my friend and I were short on time this time, so we signed up for a one-day tour to get a quick look, and we felt a little disappointed. Don't worry about anything else; solo travelers or groups of three can easily find suitable companions for a great experience! We got off at Hakata Station around dinner time, which was perfect for finding food and buying souvenirs.
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!
Our tour guide, Lily, was very enthusiastic and provided thoughtful service. The only downside was the weather today; although it was raining, the itinerary remained unchanged.
Animal lovers must visit Kyushu Zoo, where you can observe animals up close. Our guide, Mr. He, arranged the time very well, allowing you to fully explore all the attractions. Yufuin is also a great place for shopping and eating, and the croquettes are cheap and delicious.
