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.
Today's itinerary was truly enjoyable.
Yufuin was a wonderful place to explore and take photos, and we also enjoyed delicious Ito-ya fried chicken. The Umi Jigoku Onsen (Sea Hell Hot Spring) was unique and worth a visit. Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine is a must-see in Fukuoka, where you can feel the sacred atmosphere of the ancient shrine, sacred cows, and flying plum blossoms. My family was very satisfied with the entire trip.
A huge thank you to our tour leader, Lily Zheng, for her very detailed explanations and introductions. My father, being older, had trouble finding restrooms throughout the trip, and I'm very grateful to Lily for helping and comforting him. On the return trip, she also introduced many delicious foods in Fukuoka and provided a lot of information. She is the most responsible and excellent tour leader I have ever encountered; my satisfaction level is 100!
Yesterday's day trip was wonderful! A special thank you to our guide, Huahua, who was so responsible and attentive, sharing her experiences and telling us where to buy things and what to eat, giving us a clearer direction for our visit. She's fluent in Mandarin, Japanese, and Korean—truly impressive! 👏
Yufuin is a place I'd love to visit again. We were still wanting more after this trip, and I definitely want to come back to fully enjoy the town's relaxed atmosphere. Taking the "Yufuin no Mori" sightseeing train back was also fantastic, enjoying the scenery along the way and creating wonderful memories for the trip. I'm so glad my family and I joined this trip together, and thank you Huahua for her thoughtful guidance! ❤️
A great experience! Although it drizzled a bit halfway through, there was no free shuttle bus, so I had to take a taxi back to the station. Dazaifu wasn't bad at all! The plum blossom rice cakes were delicious.
At each attraction, the driver will hold up a sign to remind you of the meeting time. The Japanese garden at Senju-ji Temple is very beautiful. I recommend paying 500 yen to enter and visit the garden and main hall. The aroma of wood from the building combined with the garden is very comfortable and quiet.
This trip, conducted during a heavy rain, happened to involve mostly water activities. The scenery at the Itoshima attractions was quite different from what I usually see (a yellowish-blue hue)... We ate at the Ichiran Ramen factory, a must-try ramen experience. Our guide, Mr. Yang, had made a reservation in advance, which caused a minor hiccup, but everything went smoothly, and we ate ramen before noon. The most regrettable thing was that it took over three hours to reach Yanagawa. We were originally supposed to catch the boat as planned, but the water level rose so high that the trip was canceled. We got a refund for the boat ticket, and could only use the restroom and buy some souvenirs... The good thing is that the next stop is Dazaifu, so we have more time to leisurely stroll around and buy snacks, such as ume-ga mochi... We arrived back at Hakata Station an hour early.
Nishitetsu (West Railroad) - clockwise and counter-clockwise. Convenient both ways.
Yanagawa boatman. Works hard!
Japanese introductions along the way. Really hard to understand.
Dazaifu Omotesando (Dazaifu Grand Shrine) - Lots of monkeys.
Gohonden (Grand Hall) - Newly opened. The best part!
Inari Shrine on the back mountain. Great atmosphere.
Overall, not quite a 1/2 rating. 🤘
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!
