My husband, who was also our guide and driver, was amazing; he managed the time perfectly! This strawberry farm is popular with Japanese families, highly recommended!! The eel rice in Yanagawa was also absolutely perfect!!
The package ticket is convenient, but finding the boarding point is a bit far, about a 5-minute walk, as different companies offer boarding services right outside the station. Both locations are worth visiting. The boatmen are polite and friendly, and the scenery along the way is beautiful. It's best to go on a clear day; late March when the cherry blossoms are in bloom is particularly beautiful. However, for those who don't eat eel, the selection might be a bit limited. Dazaifu is a rare lively spot in Fukuoka. Right outside the Nishitetsu station, there are many street food stalls to explore. The package ticket also includes a plum cake. Different stalls will tempt you to eat, drink, and shop. It's recommended to visit Yanagawa first, then go to Dazaifu in the afternoon. Don't forget to try the delicious shrimp cakes as a souvenir!
When I inquired about the charter car price, the customer service responded very quickly, and the communication process was very smooth. I was able to clearly understand the itinerary and details, and the overall service made me feel at ease.
It wasn't peak tourist season this time, so there weren't many tourists at each attraction, but it was a bit windy on Itoshima, and the Yanagawa cruise was quite unique.
Our boatman was very lively, sang beautifully, and chatted enthusiastically. The Liuchuan River was beautiful, and the price for the whole boat was reasonable – excellent value for money! The 40-minute ride felt just right – a fantastic experience.
Helen, our tour guide, was very enthusiastic and attentive. She explained the background of the attractions, which strawberry varieties were the best, and suggested lunch options like eel rice or a Western restaurant. Strawberry picking was really fun! The strawberry farm was so clean and tidy, and there were many varieties of strawberries—and of course, they were very sweet! 🤤 The boating experience was unique and fun. Besides hearing the boatmen sing, now that the water level has risen, you can see them performing bridge jumping! So exciting! 😚 The driver was very safe and stable—a perfect 100! 🚗
