Reviews: Kumamoto Castle & Aso Crater Exploration, Kusasenri Horseback Riding, Depart from Fukuoka/Kumamoto
Guest User2025-08-22
The meeting point was right by the Starbucks at the east-shiroku exit of Hakata Station, and we departed right on time. Some tourists overslept and didn't even wait. They were very punctual.
The bus was in excellent condition, with plenty of air conditioning. The guide was very welcoming.
Kumamoto Castle and Mount Aso were both great. Despite the heat, Kumamoto Castle was worth visiting; it's air-conditioned and offers a panoramic view from above. There were also many delicious dishes on the first floor. The horse meat fried cakes were delicious, and the limited-edition watermelon soda was very quenching.
Due to Mount Aso's active season, we couldn't get the bus to our nearest viewing location, which was a shame.
The ice cream on the mountain was delicious and worth trying. The set lunch menu was also good, though a bit pricey up there. The air was nice, and walking on the grass was much cooler than at the foot of the mountain.★

It was a very pleasant trip. Thanks to our guide, Miss Selina, for taking us on a day trip. She was very warm and gentle, and took very good care of us. We even drank Aso milk. Looking forward to our next trip to Kyushu!★

It was a great experience. We initially thought the conditions wouldn't allow us to see the volcano, but Director Wang, so as to leave no regrets, adjusted our itinerary even though we couldn't reach the crater. He still arranged for us to go as soon as we received the news that it was open. Thumbs up.★

Reviews: One-Day Trip from Fukuoka to Miyazaki: Takachiho Gorge + Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu Shrine (Kumamoto) + Amanoiwato Shrine
Guest User2025-09-21
Although the itinerary was rushed, our guide, Li, was incredibly kind and enthusiastic. I forgot to check my email when I arrived this morning, so he told me to look for the yellow flags. There are so many of them at Hakata Station, so it's important to remember to check your emails. Although we did a lot of walking, he called a taxi for me when we returned from Takachiho Gorge. Thank you.★

Guest User2025-09-07
The scenery along the way was worth the price of admission. It was so beautiful the whole way. I kept taking photos with my camera. The guide, Heather, was also very sweet and considerate. I even made some friends along the way. It was fun. Although it rained heavily and my shoes got soaked, Kitakyushu has a unique charm in the rain.★

Reviews: Explore the secrets of Kyushu: Kumamoto's Jūmi-ko Kumanoza Shrine & Amano-Iwato & Miyazaki Takachiho Gorge
Guest User2025-09-16
My tour guide for the day was Emy, she's very friendly and informative, but she also speaks very fast (too fast). The schedule was a little rough, around 40min to an hour per stop. Most of the stop require a lot of walking and hiking. I recommend this one day tour for people who like adventure. The tour doesn't provide drinking water or snacks, you need to bring your own.
