Thank you Lily for your thoughtful company. We had a great tour guide. Yufuin is really great to explore. Ito Chicken was delicious. Umi Jigoku (Sea Hell) was unique and you can even soak your feet in the hot spring.
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.
The drive from Hakata isn't short, but joining this day tour makes transportation arrangements incredibly convenient, no need to worry about anything. Yunotsubo has a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere, with a wide variety of unique shops and delicious snacks; the pudding, dorayaki, and fried chicken are must-try dishes and absolutely amazing. Our guide, Mr. Eiichi, was very friendly and humorous, providing detailed explanations of the sights. The itinerary was just right—not too rushed, yet still allowing us to see all the key attractions. Adding the Yufuin no Mori train ticket to the tour is also highly recommended.
This was my first time hiring a car in Fukuoka. The itinerary for the day was to visit Mount Aso to see the beautiful scenery, but unfortunately, the weather didn't cooperate and it rained heavily. The driver was very considerate and explained to us that the fog on the mountain was very thick and we might not be able to see the scenery we wanted. After carefully asking whether we wanted to shop, enjoy the scenery, or just have a quick look around, he provided us with the best itinerary. Since we were traveling with elderly people, the driver was very accommodating and made us get off at several points, ensuring that the elderly people were safely taken back to their hotel. It was a wonderful experience!
This trip to Fukuoka was a solo trip, and there were many attractions in northern Kyushu I wanted to visit. Taking the Shinkansen or JR trains seemed expensive, and I also felt it wouldn't be convenient to go to the Kyushu Zoo alone, so I booked a tour. I'm so glad I signed up for this one-day tour; we visited all the places I wanted to see, and the tour guide was incredibly talented and friendly. She answered all my questions carefully and thoroughly. Most of the group that day was comprised of several families, and I was the only one on a solo trip. However, the guide took excellent care of me. The tour guide was truly amazing! I highly recommend it! If you're like me and want to avoid hassle, I highly recommend this tour. You can visit many attractions. The guide's explanations were even more detailed than the information I found online! By the way, I thought Kyushu Natural Zoo was really cool. It's the kind of safari experience you can have without going to Africa. While it doesn't have the Great Migration like in Africa, it's safe and clean, definitely worth a visit! Yufuin is amazing for shopping; I went on a shopping spree! It's perfect for people who like artsy little shops. As for Yufuin no Mori, I don't think it's necessary to buy it. If you want to save money, you can skip it. Highly recommended! I'd give it a 1/10 rating!
Our tour guide, Xiao Liu, is incredibly helpful. He provides information about the attractions, delicious food, and clean restrooms. 🤣 The day trip offers ample time to buy food and eat on the bus (remember to take your trash with you!). There's also a customized Yufuin street map and food guide. The tour bus is clean and comfortable, and the seats aren't too cramped. Choosing this day trip with family avoids the hassle of transfers and is very convenient and fun!
