Reviews: A day trip to view autumn foliage at Kamishimi Kumanozha Shrine in Kumamoto, Japan, Takachiho Gorge in Miyazaki, and Ten'an Kawara.

This was a fantastic day trip with Gogoday! We departed from Hakata Station at 8 AM and arrived back at 6 PM. There was a rest stop at a highway service area. The itinerary included three attractions, and the time allotted was ample, allowing plenty of time to explore each one. Lunch was at Ama-Iwato Shrine, but time was a bit tight, so you could buy food at a nearby supermarket or beforehand at a Lawson convenience store near Hakata Station or at the highway service area. Finally, you could browse souvenir shops at Takachiho Gorge. The tour group consisted of both Chinese and Korean participants. Our guide, Mr. Zheng, first introduced the tour in Chinese and then in Korean. He was very kind and humorous, and there was absolutely no hard selling. He even gave us souvenirs! Thank you! 🙏

On the second day of the New Year, I took a day trip and was incredibly lucky to see snow. We were also very fortunate that the crater was open and the mountain roads along the Kurokawa River were safe to drive on! The day was packed; we left at 8 am and arrived at 6 pm. We checked out the location first, and will explore it more thoroughly on our next road trip! Our guide, Mr. Sun, was very friendly, funny, and witty. He shared many interesting stories about life in Japan and recommended delicious food in Kumamoto. Highly recommended! (՞ਊ՞)👍

Super fun! The Aso crater is incredibly cold, so be sure to wear lots and lots of layers! Otherwise, you won't be able to stand for even five minutes. Kusanagi Senri is great; you can get up close to horses, browse souvenir shops, and drink delicious yogurt. The ginkgo leaves at the shrine are beautiful, carpeted with fallen leaves. I initially thought Kurokawa Onsen would be boring since I didn't plan to stay overnight, and going into the baths alone felt a bit too sedentary. But I found it very enjoyable to explore. There's plenty of time. Don't rush to the first free foot bath. You can buy a hot spring egg for 10 yen, then walk further in; there's a foot bath for 100 yen per person that's less crowded and has some scenery. You can also buy towels from vendors. After your foot bath, explore further; there's a cream puff shop where you can buy many sweets—a very unique place. The whole trip was quite relaxing and not too rushed. Remember to bring some coins to buy eggs and foot baths at Kurokawa. You can also pray at the shrine!

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.

Tour guide Sun Nan was very professional and managed the time very well. He answered all the questions and explained each attraction clearly, giving us enough time to move around freely. The Aso dairy products recommended by Guide Sun were really delicious! I would recommend this day trip to friends who are going to Aso👍

Our tour guide, Ms. Zhuo, was incredibly genuine, with a wonderful personality and a straightforward nature. Unlike other tour guides who are often driven by self-interest, she genuinely shared the best local food and attractions with us. The entire trip was very relaxing and perfectly planned, making for a smooth day. We avoided traffic jams and didn't waste any time. It was the luckiest trip of our entire trip, and I'd love to see her again! The driver was also a wonderful presence, providing enthusiastic and engaging explanations that were especially entertaining.
