I boarded from Hakata, but it was too far. The shrine, which is a tourist spot, lacked impact. The guide's explanations were polite and pleasant, but I couldn't understand much about the gods and such.博多から乗車したが、遠すぎる。
観光地の神社もインパクトが低かった。ガイドの説明は丁寧で好感でしたが、神様等の説明があまり理解出来なかった、

I wanted to hike a bit longer at Takachiho Gorge. I knew it would be a long travel time for the tour, but I still wished I could have walked more to refresh myself and burn some calories.高千穂峡はもう少し長めにハイキングしたかった。
分かってはいたけど、やはり移動時間が長いツアーなので、もっとたくさん歩いてリフレッシュ＆カロリー消費　したかったな、と思いました。

We participated as a pair.

Everyone else was from overseas, and the guidance was provided in the order of Korean → English → Japanese.

Both the guide and the driver were kind, and there were appropriate restroom breaks at the parking areas.

Once we arrived at the sightseeing spots, there was quite a bit of walking, so it's an adult-oriented tour.

In the summer, a parasol and a handheld fan are essential.

I joined this tour thinking I could stay longer at Takachiho Gorge. It was a beautiful place where I could stroll leisurely and enjoy the stunning views. I heard from the guide that this tour had the highest number of Japanese participants ever. The guide was very kind, and it was an enjoyable tour. We also visited other places like Amano Iwato Shrine, and I appreciated the convenience of being taken around by bus, which highlighted the benefits of a bus tour.高千穂峡に長く滞在出来ると思いこのツアーに参加しました。高千穂峡はゆっくり散策できて、絶景でした、ガイドさんに、過去一番多く、日本人の方が参加されているとお聞きしました。ガイドさんは、とても親切で楽しいツアーでした。その他の天岩戸神社はじめ、あちこちバスに乗って連れて行ってもらえてバスツアーの良さを感じました。

We departed from Hakata Station early in the morning, toured Kumamoto and Miyazaki, and returned to Hakata Station by 6 PM. Due to the schedule, we had to catch a flight at 7 PM, and when I informed the guide about this, they reacted with a bit of concern. However, they prepared recovery plans just in case, and the driver also worked hard to save time. Miraculously, we completed everything on time without any traffic jams.

However, they prepared recovery plans just in case, and the driver also worked hard to save time. Miraculously, we completed everything on time without any traffic jams.

While the sightseeing spots were great, I believe it was a good value for the cost. However, I recommend not cramming too much into the itinerary for the later part of the day! (laughs) 早朝に博多駅を出発して熊本→宮崎を巡って18時に博多駅に戻る強行スケジュールです。
工程的に19時に帰りの飛行機な乗らなければならず、そのことをガイドさんにお伝えしたら苦いリアクションをされましたが、もしもの際のリカバリー策などを準備いただき、ドライバーさんも時間短縮に尽力していただき、奇跡的に渋滞もなく時間どおりに完了できました。

観光場所が良いことは勿論ですが、コスパの良い内容だと思いますが、後工程はあまり詰め込まないことをオススメします笑

It was an interesting guide (Taku) who could fluently switch between three languages and provided efficient advice. ☺️ Since the itinerary requires a quick pace, I recommend it for those who want a digest version. It might not be suitable for those who prefer a more in-depth experience. Also, the tour may be affected by the weather.三カ国後を流暢に使い分け、効率的なアドバイスをくれる面白いガイドさん（タクさん）でした☺️
駆け足で回らないとならない工程なので、ダイジェスト版でみたい方にはオススメです。じっくりを望む人には向かないかも。あと、天候に左右されるツアーかと。

Although most of the time is spent traveling, I think it's a good tour because you can go to Takachiho and come back in one day. I thought there would be a lot of mountain walking, but it wasn't that intense. If you don't have any issues with your legs, I don't think you need to worry too much.

Regarding the guide, Emily was wonderful. Her explanations were clear, and she was very professional. Unfortunately, the guide in charge of Japanese and Korean, Y, was disappointing. She spoke in such a quiet voice that the three Japanese guests sitting right in front of her couldn't hear her. She didn't use a microphone either. However, the Korean guide was loud enough to be heard.

Including the parking, Y was the last to return to the bus at three out of the five stops we made. While she expected the guests to be punctual, it was surprising that she was late three times. Emily had to remind her on the third occasion, but it seemed to upset Y, and her guiding after that was far from professional. Additionally, it may be a minor point, but I believe there are still a number of Japanese people who find it rude to guide while wearing AirPods. They might be used as hearing aids, but if that's the case, it would be better if she mentioned it at the beginning.

While the guiding experience wasn't as great as others have described, I still think it was a tour that was enjoyable overall. 移動時間がほとんどではありますが、一日で高千穂まで行って帰って来られるので、良いツアーだと思います。ものすごく山歩きするのかと思っていましたが、そこまでではありませんでした。足に不安がなければ、そんなに心配しなくて良いと思います。

パーキングも含め、立ち寄った5ヶ所のうち3ヶ所で、Ｙさんが一番最後にバスに戻ってきました。客側には時間厳守を求めているのに。流石に３回目はエミリーさんが注意してくれたのですが、それが不満だったようで、その後のガイドぶりもプロとは言い難いものでした。また、細かい話かも知れませんが、AirPodsを耳に装着したままガイドすることを失礼と感じる日本人はまだ一定数いると思います。補聴器として使われているのかも知れませんが、それなら最初に一言断られた方が良いと思います。

ガイドについては他の方の体験談のような素晴らしさはありませんでしたが、それを除けば充分楽しめるツアーだと思いました。

I realized this was a multinational tour just three days before it started! I participated with some anxiety. I was the only Japanese person; the rest were Westerners and Chinese. However, the guide explained the tour details and the places we would visit in Chinese, and then came to each seat to provide thorough explanations in English and Japanese for the others. I was impressed by their cheerful and energetic demeanor, and I really appreciated it! Thank you.このツァーが多国籍ツァーだと理解したのが催行3日前！

笑顔、元気を絶やさない働き振りに頭が下がり、とっても好感が持てました！

The announcements on the bus were in Chinese, English, and Japanese, and it was refreshing and interesting to hear the rules for visiting shrines and highlights of each location in both Chinese and English.

After asking about the meeting time and place, we had about an hour of free time upon arrival, allowing us to explore efficiently. Since the itinerary was packed with sightseeing spots, we couldn't take a long lunch, so I took the guide's recommendation of a Miyazaki beef hot dog (delicious) to go and ate it on the bus. If the weather had been nice, it might have been nice to eat it on a bench at Takachiho Gorge. The mango soft serve included in the tour was also exquisite.

Unfortunately, Takachiho Gorge was brown due to rain the previous day, but I heard it is usually emerald green. I plan to return for a second chance someday.

Although it was a long-distance trip, there were appropriate restroom breaks, and the scenery from the car windows around Aso was beautiful, making the journey feel quicker than I expected. We had to walk quite a bit from the bus parking lot to the attractions, but I think it was good exercise.

It was a place that is not easy to reach on your own, so I was very satisfied to be able to visit 3 to 4 spots in a day. Thank you very much. 外国人観光客向けのツアーで、私ともう1組以外は皆さん外国の方でした。ガイドさんがとても素敵な方で、日本語でオススメのご当地グルメや観光名所をご紹介してくださったので楽しく過ごせました。

高千穂峡は残念ながら前日の雨の影響で川が茶色かったのですが、普段はエメラルドグリーンだそうです。いつかまたリベンジしようと思います。
長距離移動ですがトイレ休憩も適宜あり、阿蘇周辺からは車窓からの景色がキレイだったので思っていたよりあっという間でした。バスの駐車場から名所までわりと歩きますが、良い運動になったと思います。
自力ではなかなか行きにくい所だったので、日帰りでサクッと3〜4ヶ所も観光できて大満足でした。ありがとうございました。

Although it rained on and off due to the typhoon, we were able to enjoy a very magical atmosphere.

On the way back, there was heavy traffic due to an accident and the holiday rush, but thanks to the driver's safe driving, we arrived at the drop-off point on schedule. This allowed us to have a delicious dinner before boarding the Shinkansen.

If I have the opportunity again, I would definitely like to participate. ライブの翌日に観光したくて色々検索していてこちらのツアーを見つけ、最初から海外の方向けのツアーと理解して参加させて頂きました。

For those with specific Shinkansen times, I recommend allowing extra time for safety.

Living in Japan, it’s not often that you get the chance to interact with people from overseas, but experiencing different cultures in this way was a great opportunity, making the tour twice as enjoyable. I want to go again! ❣️ 以前より訪れてみたかった高千穂ツアーへ

About 80-90% of the participants were foreigners. The guide was kind and provided very detailed explanations, even explaining Japanese culture to the overseas guests. When the explanations were given in Chinese, then English, and finally Japanese, I had no particular issues since I am trilingual, but I noticed that the Westerners next to me seemed a bit confused at first. I thought it might be better to explain the order of the languages used from the beginning. 11月中〜末頃に高千穂峡の紅葉狩りでツアーに参加しました。2024年の紅葉が遅かったのであまり見れなくて残念だったのですが、高千穂峡も天安河原も綺麗な場所で参加してよかったと思います。そして上色見熊野座神社の頂点の絶景を見るために長い階段を登る甲斐もありました。お土産までいただいてありがとうございました。

The participants were multinational, including people from the U.S., China, Taiwan, Korea, and Singapore, and as a Japanese person, I was in the minority (probably the only one), but everyone was well-mannered, making for a pleasant trip. The guide was Chinese and had no issues with Japanese or English, effectively communicating the features of the tourist spots in Japanese, which helped me understand them well. The bus driver was also a pleasant person. It was a long day from 8:00 to 18:30, but it was truly an interesting day that flew by. 天気が良く、上色見熊野座神社、天安河原、天岩戸神社の神秘性が非常に強く伝わってきました。各所をバスで移動中に見える阿蘇山もダイナミックで美しく、地球規模の自然の神秘も伝わってきました。高千穂峡も圧巻で、驚くほど巨大で多くの柱状節理を目の当たりにし、圧倒された一日でした。参加者は米、中、台、韓、シンガポールなど多国籍で日本人の私は少数派（恐らく1人だけ）でしたが、すべての人がマナー良く心地よい旅でした。ガイドさんは中国人で日本語にも英語にも問題はなく、要所を日本語で伝えてくれましたので観光スポット… 天気が良く、上色見熊野座神社、天安河原、天岩戸神社の神秘性が非常に強く伝わってきました。各所をバスで移動中に見える阿蘇山もダイナミックで美しく、地球規模の自然の神秘も伝わってきました。高千穂峡も圧巻で、驚くほど巨大で多くの柱状節理を目の当たりにし、圧倒された一日でした。参加者は米、中、台、韓、シンガポールなど多国籍で日本人の私は少数派（恐らく1人だけ）でしたが、すべての人がマナー良く心地よい旅でした。ガイドさんは中国人で日本語にも英語にも問題はなく、要所を日本語で伝えてくれましたので観光スポットの特徴をよく理解することができました。バスの運転手も感じの良い方でした。8：00～18：30の長丁場でしたが、あっという間の本当に面白い一日でした。

マンマ♪
I was very well taken care of by the two guides, and it was a fulfilling day. The tour included Chinese, Korean, Westerners, and myself, a Japanese person, making it an exotic experience. The guides spoke Chinese, Korean, English, and Japanese fluently, and there were no issues at all. Furthermore, they provided detailed information about Japanese mythology that even Japanese people might not know.

Although lunch was not mentioned in the tour details, they kindly informed us of a place where we could take a lunch break, and on the bus before we parted ways, they shared detailed gourmet information about the area around Hakata Station. It was a very meaningful and memorable tour. Thank you, Emi and John. 2人のガイドさんには、大変お世話になり、充実した1日でした。この日のツアーは、中国人、韓国人、欧米人、そして日本人の私で、エキゾチックなツアーでした。ガイドさんたちは中国語、韓国語、英語、日本語を流暢に話し、全く問題ありませんでした。さらに、日本人でも知らないような日本の神話を詳しく教えてくださいました♪ツアー内容にはお昼のことは書いてありませんでしたが、お昼休憩ができるお店を親切に教えてくださり、解散前のバスの中では、博多の駅周辺でのグルメ情報を詳しく教えていただきました。とても有意義な思い出に… 2人のガイドさんには、大変お世話になり、充実した1日でした。この日のツアーは、中国人、韓国人、欧米人、そして日本人の私で、エキゾチックなツアーでした。ガイドさんたちは中国語、韓国語、英語、日本語を流暢に話し、全く問題ありませんでした。さらに、日本人でも知らないような日本の神話を詳しく教えてくださいました♪ツアー内容にはお昼のことは書いてありませんでしたが、お昼休憩ができるお店を親切に教えてくださり、解散前のバスの中では、博多の駅周辺でのグルメ情報を詳しく教えていただきました。とても有意義な思い出に残るツアーでした。エミさん、ジョンさん、ありがとうございました。

いっしー
As many reviews have mentioned, this is a tour aimed at foreigners. This time, there were 36 Chinese participants, 4 Japanese, and 3 Koreans. However, the guide was wonderful and explained everything in detail in each country's language. So, I felt that even if there was only one Japanese participant, they could join with peace of mind.

It was great to efficiently visit famous spots by bus. Although it was a bus tour, we walked over 10,000 steps, so comfortable clothing and shoes are essential.

On the way back, we also received steamed buns as souvenirs. Thank you very much. 口コミで多くの方が書かれている通り、これは外国人向けのツアーです。今回も中国人36名、日本人4名、韓国人3名という構成でした。しかし、ガイドさんが素晴らしく各国の言葉で全て詳しく説明して下さいます。なので、たとえ日本人1人参加だとしても安心して参加できると思いました。
有名どころを効率よくバスで巡れてよかったです。
バスツアーですが一万歩以上歩いたので、歩きやすい服装、靴は必須ですね。
帰りにお饅頭のお土産もいただきました。ありがとうございました。
