Day trip from Fukuoka - The tour guide, Ella was great. The tour was fun and you got to spend a good amount of time at each location. The boats at the george was crazy, but fun. I would recommend this tour to others.

Great full day experience! - This was a really lovely trip that I would recommend anyone do while in the Fukuoka area. Our guide, Sun, was absolutely wonderful! He was so kind, had a very positive disposition, and full of information. I really appreciated the stories he told and his recommendations for food. I also really appreciated that he allowed us space to explore each destination on our own and at our own pace, when we saw the bus we were very worried that we were going to have to be staying with a pack of people the entire time.. but that wasn’t the experience at all! Really a great tour, thanks for everything Sun!

Great full day tour. I’m... - Great full day tour. I’m glad I added the gorge, boat ride and lunch to the tour. That was the memorable highlight of the adventure. The gorge was beautiful, riding the boat was fun and the lunch was delicious! The Aso volcano was hard to see that day, it was freezing cold and the greenery was brown due to winter- no fault to the tour. The guide tried his best but was really better with mandarin than English. All in all I’d recommend this tour, it was with it.

Fantastic tour with boat ride in the gorge - An excellent, very well planned and guided tour which exceeded my expectations. Emy was a fantastic guide fluent in English, Chinese and Japanese so the whole tour was seamless. The company also offers boat rides in the gorge which is a must and was the most magical part of my trip so far. I initially thought it would be all in Chinese but that was absolutely not the case with Emy as the guide.

A very pleasant nature trip - It's a good full day tour. It's a chance to see the wonderful natural landmarks near Fukuoka, but quite restful bec its amply planned as to their distances from one another. Also the prepared lunch was very unique and delicious.

A good day out - This is an experience in nature. Fortunately the weather was good. I did not do the boat trip, cause old & unsteady, so small rowing boat was a nono. The Wagyu lunch was good, but the restaurant looked like a canteen, no atmosphere; something more traditional would be more appropriate, but presumably not available. The guide Cico was good & amusing. A good day out.
