● What our Guests have to sayNumber of traveller : 9 persons Schedule : June 9 to 17, 2024 Transportation : Chartered bus with 25seats Tour guide : English speaking guide Where to visit : Fukuoka, Yufuin, Aso, Miyazaki, Kumamoto, Takachiho, Fukuoka Beppu, Yufuin, Yanagawa, Fukuoka What our Customer have to say Thank you Takako san. We had a great time in Kyushu! Our family is glad the services from Shuji san in general and he is also very helpful to arrange reservation with restaurants. Only 2 minor suggestion that Bottle of water can be prepared and ready for daily consumption for the next big family tour group. It will be easier and save time to have sufficient water for the tour group. Some place may close early. It will be great to have the tour guide to “control” the timing to ensure the tour can reach the spot before it closes or enough time to enjoy the food. For example, we only had 5 -10 mins on the fish market on day 1 (we couldn’t really had a good seafood meal there.) and the marine center – dolphins show was missed on day 2.
