We really had a great time! Ms Mao our tour guide is so kind. Though we joined a chinese group, she really tried her best to communicate in English. We had fun during the Ametarasu train ride!

We mistakenly selected a day tour without an english speaking guide, but we still managed to communicate through WhatsApp. Locations are beautiful and luckily the weather is nice the whole trip.

I’m glad I chose this tour with Kkday. I love the itinerary and the alotted time with each destinations, we were not rushing. Miyazaki has a never ending beautiful sceneries. The Amaterasu Railway experience was the best. This tour is less hassle, enteance fees and train ride in amaterasu are already include in the package. Also, I was so lucky with my tour guide. She’s the best. I joined a Chinese Tour, but I can only speak English. My tour guide helped me so much and she’s good in speaking English. She explained everything really well, took care of me and made sure I wasn’t left out. I hope kkday will have an English Tour of this someday!

We joined Tour B with tour guide Ms Mao, a very friendly, approachable lady. All the places we visited were beautiful, would be nice if can stop each place for a little bit longer, but that's the downside when joining a tour cuz need to fit in all the places plus the long bus ride. There was no designated lunch time so you just buy food in food stall or small shops at the places we visited and we got Japanese hotdogs at a tour guide recommended places which was tasty. So overall my hubby and I enjoy it and I would definitely recommend this tour.

Very good experience and guide. Our guide 小雅 was able to adjust the itinerary so that we could catch the fun Amaterasu Railway with beautiful scenery. The small bus can be parked nearer to Takachiho Gorge & saved us some walking. The path to Amano Yasukawara cave is a highlight, very beautiful with gushing streams. 小雅 is very helpful and pleasant, able to provide useful info and recommended nice food to try at various stops.

I love everything in this tour! The itinerary was definite, always on time and enjoying. Our tour guide “Ms. Mao” is superb! She always guides and informs us the details of every stop, despite of limited English language, she makes an effort to translate and talk to us 👏🏼😄 We were able to go to every popular places jn Kumamoto and Miyazaki prefecture. I enjoyed a lot w/ my fellow tourists. 🙏🏼

Our guide - Thomas is very interesting, he is humorous as well and gave us sufficient info about the places we visited. Everything is nice about this itinerary, just too bad the sakura season got delayed slightly. And this is a small day-tour group which I like the most.
